MSI’s RTX 5070 gaming laptop with 32GB RAM is $405 off at Amazon
Amazon is offering the MSI Crosshair A16 HX gaming laptop for $2,294, a $405 saving against its displayed $2,699 list price. The model in this offer pairs an AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX processor with Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 laptop graphics, 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD.
You also get a 16-inch, 2560 x 1600 display with a 240Hz refresh rate. It is an appealing combination if you want a gaming laptop with plenty of memory already installed, though $2,294 is still a substantial purchase and I would compare a few similarly equipped models before deciding.
When we checked the US listing, the new laptop was in stock and Amazon.com was both the seller and shipper. Free standard delivery was available without Prime, although delivery dates and availability can vary by location.

- Amazon comparison price
- $2,699.00 (list price); save $405
The $405 comparison comes from Amazon’s list price. It does not establish the laptop’s recent selling price or prove that this is a record low, so keep that distinction in mind when weighing the deal.
The 240Hz display and 32GB RAM give it room to play
The Ryzen 9 8940HX and RTX 5070 are paired with 32GB of DDR5 memory and a 1TB NVMe SSD. That is a useful starting point for gaming alongside other apps, while the storage gives you room for a game library. Large installations add up quickly, so check the space you need before ordering.
The display’s 240Hz refresh rate can make fast-moving games look smoother when they run at sufficiently high frame rates. Actual performance will depend on the game, its settings and resolution. We have not tested this configuration, so I would not expect every demanding title to run at 240 frames per second.
Nvidia’s RTX graphics also support DLSS features in compatible games. You can choose the settings that balance image quality and performance for the titles you play.

Check the exact configuration before you buy
The offer is for the gunmetal grey Crosshair A16 HX E8WGK-009US, with Windows 11 Home and Wi-Fi 6E. Other Crosshair listings may have different processors, memory or graphics, so double-check the model and selected configuration on the product page.
Before checking out, confirm that the 32GB Crosshair A16 HX at Amazon still shows $2,294 and the delivery terms that work for you. Prices and stock can change.
