Best PCs to Play Viewfinder

While Viewfinder may boggle your mind, its specifications certainly shouldn’t. Its entirely modest requirements mean you could enjoy Viewfinder on pretty much any gaming PC or laptop out there.  Still, there is something to be said about enjoying the reality-bending experience on shiny new hardware. We’ve picked out a few of our favourite computers to play Viewfinder, but you can explore our entire range of gaming PCs and laptops should they not vibe.

MSI Cyborg 15 Gaming Laptop

Take your puzzle platform gaming with you, thanks to the MSI Cyborg 15. This gaming laptop is powered by an Intel Core i5-12450H CPU and 16GB DDR5 RAM, delivering smooth and efficient performance whether you’re working or playing. Plus, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 and 15.6” FHD display will bring Viewfinder to life in vibrant detail. Thanks to NVIDIA MAX-Q technologies, the GPU has been optimised for working in a smaller frame with no compromise on performance. 

The puzzles may make your brain sweat, but the MSI Cyborg 15 stays cool thanks to the innovative Cooler Boost thermal system. This features a shared heat pipe across the CPU and GPU, efficiently drawing heat away from both of these vital components.
