Do I need 64 GB of RAM in a gaming laptop?

For games alone, no; 16 to 32 GB covers current titles. The 64 GB here pays off with virtual machines, large photo and video projects, or dozens of browser tabs and apps open at once.

What is the screen like?

It is a 16-inch 2560x1600 panel at 165Hz. That resolution is sharper than 1080p and the refresh rate is smooth for fast games, though a 16-inch panel at this resolution asks a lot of the GPU at high settings.

Does it come with Windows 11 Pro?

Yes, Windows 11 Pro is listed as the installed operating system, which adds BitLocker and remote desktop features over Home.

When is the best time to buy it?

Gaming laptops typically drop most during holiday sales and back-to-school promotions, so those are the windows to watch.

Is the MSI Crosshair 16 Max worth it?

It buys a 64 GB, 1 TB machine with a 165Hz 2560x1600 screen and Windows 11 Pro. If you need the memory for VMs or editing, it is reasonable; pure gamers can find similar GPUs for less with 16 or 32 GB.
