Computex 2025 has officially concluded, and MSI went all in with their range of new devices including the AMD-powered Claw A8 and two new collab notebooks. This generation will have their most powerful notebooks yet like the overkill RTX 5090-powered Titan 18HX Dragon Edition Norse Myth.
We finally got our hands on the MSI Titan 18HX Dragon Edition Norse Myth after it was introduced back in CES 2025. The brand is going all out with this notebook with a bespoke Dragon-themed lid and a Dragon coin on its wrist rest.
Weighing in at 3.6kg with a magnesium alloy chassis, the Titan holds up to its name. Thankfully, it has plenty of horsepower under the hood like an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor 285HX and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 24GB Laptop GPU. These are complemented by 48GB of DDR5-6400 RAM, a 2TB PCIe 5.0 x5 NVMe M.2, and two PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe M.2s.
It comes with an 18-inch 3840 x 2400 120Hz MiniLED display with DCI-P3 coverage an IPS-level of viewing angles. MSI also equips it with a Cherry mechanical keyboard, a 99.9Whr battery with a 400W power adapter, two Thunderbolt 5 USB-C ports, HDMI 2.1, and three USB 3.2 Gen2 USB-A ports.
The MSI Titan 18HX Dragon Edition Norse Myth does have flagship specifications, but it also comes with a flagship price. It is now available in the Philippines with a promo cash SRP of PhP 421,995.
The MSI Stealth A16 AI+ is for those wanting something more subdued, but still want high-end performance. The notebook is powered by an AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 with 32GB LPDDR5X RAM and 1TB NVMe PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD, paired with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 8GB GPU.
Its much more portable than the Titan as it only weighs in at 2.1kg. Despite its relatively light weight, MSI manages to fit a 16-inch IPS-level 2560 x 1600 240Hz display with 100% DCI-P3 coverage complemented by two 2W speakers and four 2W woofers.
Other features include a per-key RGB gaming keyboard by SteelSeries, WiFi 7, a Thunderbolt 4-compatible USB-C port, two USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A ports, and an HDMI 2.1 connection.
The MSI Stealth A16 AI+ is priced at PhP 149,995 in the Philippines, but the brand is giving a PhP 10,000 discount to customers paying with cash. This cash discount brings it down to PhP 139,995.
The MSI Vector 16HX AI is another beefy gaming laptop that’s arrived in the Philippines. Inside its 2.7kg chassis is an Intel Core Ultra 7 processor 255HX paired with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 12GB. These are complemented by a PCIe 5.0-compatible M.2 slot and 16GB of DDR5-5600 RAM.
The brand equips the notebook with a 16-inch 2560 x 1600 IPS-level display running at 240Hz with 100% DCI-P3 coverage. There’s also a 24-zone RGB keyboard, two Thunderbolt 5 ports, WiFi 7, two USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A ports, and HDMI 2.1.
