MSI Katana 15 HX B14WEK-111IN 15.6″ i7-14650HX 16GB 512GB RTX 5050 144Hz Gaming Laptop
The MSI Katana 15 HX (B14WEK-111IN) is MSI’s mainstream gaming line with a proper HX-class chip: the Intel® Core™ i7-14650HX, 16 cores and 24 threads. It’s paired with an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 5050 Laptop GPU (8 GB GDDR7) running at up to 115 W, which is more power than the 5050 gets in thinner laptops.
The 15.6-inch Full HD screen runs at 144 Hz. You get 16 GB of DDR5 (up to 96 GB supported) and a 512 GB PCIe Gen4 SSD. There’s only one M.2 slot, so a storage upgrade means swapping the SSD. Ports include HDMI 2.1, USB-C with DisplayPort and charging, three USB-A and Gigabit LAN. It weighs 2.4 kg with a 75 Wh battery and a 240 W charger.
MSI gives a 2-year on-site warranty on this model (on-site service in selected regions). It covers manufacturing defects, not physical, burn or liquid damage. Register the serial number at register.msi.com soon after purchase, because the warranty depends on it. You can check the laptop and pick it up at our Koramangala store, open Mon–Sun 10:30 AM to 9 PM. Call +91 9739221133.
