One of the best price-to-performance high-end laptops has not moved an inch as far as pricing goes because the MSI Creator Z16P continues its attractive run on Amazon with a price of $1,599.99. With an RTX 3080 Ti that has 16GB VRAM, you have ample framebuffer to get the most out of this GPU, whether it is for creative work or gaming. As the name suggests, the Creator Z16P features a 16-inch, QHD+ IPS LCD panel with a 165Hz refresh rate, which gamers can take advantage of.

For creative professionals, the panel covers 100 percent of the DCI-P3 color space, making it handy for various customers. Of course, that RTX 3080 Ti will be useless unless it has a capable CPU supplementing its performance, and that is exactly what you get with the available package. Inside, you get an Intel Core i7-12700H CPU, which is a 14-core processor flaunting six performance cores and eight power-efficiency ones.

Both the CPU and GPU are tamed using a vapor chamber, which also allows the MSI Creator Z16P to maintain a thinner design compared to notebooks featuring the same specifications. Since programs have higher RAM requirements than what they used to a few years ago, the Creator Z16P has 32GB of DDR5 memory instead of 16GB, along with a 1TB PCIe NVMe Gen 4 SSD.

Though a small percentage of customers may want to upgrade their notebook to 64GB RAM, we will recommend paying more attention to the storage and save money in the process. The battery is also a generous 90WHr cell, but given that it is an Intel processor that is a part of the innards, we recommend bringing your charger along or at least a USB-C power brick that supports the USB-PD standard.

Given the desirable pricing of the Creator Z16P, we are confident that it will go out of stock fairly quickly and why not? Up until several months ago, RTX 3080 Ti laptops were being sold for $2,500 and above, so compared to then, this machine is practically a steal for you.
