That frame rate on "TITLE HERE" was unreal!
Hahahah was about to comment timestamp for GOW 9:00 'Title Here"
He’s now just rushing the videos
@@bullymaguire243 churning out content daily for a miss like this is forgiven imho
He's on a roll these days👍🔥
@@HuntaKiller91 This is true but if he'd just watch the videos all the way through just once before uploading, a lot of these errors (including audio ones too) would be fixable.

The only "gaming" laptop I have ever owned was a huge 16" MSI...loved it. I gave it to my sister and I think she still uses it. It is old, now, though. Sandy Bridge lol
Your content is awesome, no rush for editing
How's the upgradeability ? How about fan noise, keyboard feel, are there hot spots that might be bothersome for some people. Is the bios similar to MSI desktop mainboards, what about the software, the battery life and bloatware ? Is this just a product showcase / preview and will there be any daily testing or maybe even a _ _ month update ?
Thank you as always!
How loud does it get?
That laptop really looks impressive. Cool laptop.👍
Are the msi raider models come with 1ms Response time or are they specific ones
I really love MSI products and seeing this presentation haves me sold. well that's whenever I'm ever able to afford it XD
I actually plan a i5 msi itx built later on in like maybe 3 - 5 months.
I'm looking for a laptop that I can both use for work (graphic design/animation adobe suite, ediitng, after effects) and gaming. This looks to be a good candidate...
Good review! Interesting laptop, pretty much the "wet dream" of a gamer :)
BTW since this is a laptop, battery performance is essential. How long you can play when you do max settings showed in the video? Also how loud the fences become?
Probably get like 45 minutes of battery while gaming.
Can’t wait to get back near a micro center.
Your backdrops are legit AF.
Could you do a review of Ryzen 5 7520u laptop?
In the God of War segment you forgot the title. It says “Title Here” now. Just so you know.
But off of that, love your videos and with this video, yet again, you’re right on it!
Thank you for the amazing content!
what is the battery life time without power from the wall?
Mad respect for test 4K now I can compare it to the GT 77
Can you also review the mini pc from zotac? I think its magnus en3080. I havent seen any mini pc with rtx 3080 other than this one
I'm hoping to save up enough for the RTX 4090 version. The idea of making it possible is really exciting. I have a GTX 1060 Stealth. Can't wait to upgrade.
USD$3,800. Holy hell...
4,000-$4500 on Amazon
Wow the screen is 😍 beautiful !!!
Amazing machine. Great video.
Does anyone know how long the battery lasts (not gaming)
Have you tried the 4090 rtx version?
Great specs... just wish it wasn't so gaudy in design
Awesome. Thats all the computer you will ever need.
Wait... 24 cores...? That's a Xeon in disguise!!!!
That's nothing bothe AMD and Intel have a 32 thread CPU in the mobile stack.
P core is not same as C core, as if my understanding is correct
@@user-yt9yg5se8u it doesn't matter if the performance is there...
@@ibrohiem 24 really fast cores lol
💀
I would love to see a full power 4080 or 4090 laptop gpu but like the size of a console.
Like the minisforum nucx i7,something that looks like a console with a 13th gen i9 processor and a full power 4080 or 4090 laptop gpu.
If we had something like this there'd be no need for a desktop
Why did you stop doing emulation benchmarks?
Love this channel man just love it ❤️🔥
can you get this machine with fhd+, 1200p?
Where can i get that wallpaper from the thumbnail?
3:09 I wanted to see a Mini PC with these specs, Intel Core i9-13950HX + RTX 4080 (175 Watt) or RTX 4090 (175 Watt). Has any Mini PC manufacturer ever thought of this?
Wattage power consumption?
Awesome one!
please can anyone tell me how to reset the rgb lights on the older 76hx
Wish I had MicroCenter closer to Jacksonville FL!
hello make a video with Minisforum hx99g using external GPU please with RTX series 30 or 40 if it's worth it,
I'm from Brazil and I really like your channel.
Here in lil' ol' England we have a PC store called Scan and I reckons it's pretty much the same as Micro Centre. Or Center for you gun totin' Muricans.
I've got a 4 year old Titan with a GTX 1070 but my next PC is gonna be a tower.
😎👍... I don't know about everyone else but I always enjoy the videos and learn enough to make me feel like I can now make a informed choice by the ending of the viewing.
Fun Fact:
Micro Center makes me feel exactly how Chick-fil-A and B&H makes me feel peaceful and the staff be Super Helpful I'll be all cool but really in Church.
Can you do an eGPU build using the RTX A2000?!
No mention of how loud it is.
Really nice👍
How does it Linux?
I just got the one with the 13980hx and a 4090. Not many videos on it
I'm saving up for this laptop!! I have 6 months to go!
Monster laptop!
Did I miss the price?
I can't wait until Linus Tech crab raves the speakers for a test xD
What is this? Christmas colour?
Looks awesome!!!! I’ll buy it in four years as long as it’s not obsolete by then. Already have an Asus gaming laptop. This beast blows my laptop out of the water
It probably will be obsolete the update happens within every 2-3 years so better to save and buy the newest available which has just been released.
I tried to look at the purchase price
sold out
people just have too much money
;-)
What is the price $? You forgot to list that with the specs.
Getting one of these from my school. It's like they're begging me to game on something like this
how is the fan noise on 1600p gaming please?
Like every laptop, 50+ db
That thing in Cinebench R23 and Geekbench 6 pulls more than 75w, just by playing Cyberpunk is already pulling up to 80w. It probably pulls 120W in Cinebench
Nice! Wondering if 64GB would be a nice variant or option to upgrade. Good to have for workstation use case.
You literally answered your own question.
@@JeffWaynee Not sure if the Mob supports 64GB
@@zangarkhan Any i9 will support 64GB.
i threw 64GB kit of 3200mhz GSkillz Ripjaw in my MSI GF63 Thin UC-11 3050 variant it increased gpu performance to almost thee same as a desktop 3050 i get about 85-90% the performance of the desktop variant was worth it IMO
@@zangarkhan my MSI GF63 thin *( 2021 )* supports 64GB this should too and i only have an i5 11400H
Can u try tiny 11 on raspberry pi 4 ,8gb and game
"Title here" is the game of the year. No debate. 😂
Eta prime, Would you consider the msi gt76 titan with the 4k 1,000 nits 144 hz mini led display with the Intel i9-13980 hx and 4090 gpu, since it goes to 5.6 ghz? I really wish the manufacturers would having gaming laptops would go back to putting a desktop cpu like the msi gt76 titan and alienware area 51m back in 2019 since both gaming laptops have the desktop Intel i9-9900k desktop cpu in them. I have the razer blade 15 with the 4k 144 hz display, Intel i9-12900h cpu, 32gb ram and 1tb ssd. The razer blade 15 laptop 4k display is meh ok. It would have been better with a 4k mini led display with 1,000 nits and the desktop cpu 12900k instead of the Intel 12900h mobile cpu. There is no micro center where I'm located even though we have microsoft, google, amazon and even apple stores. The only electronic store that exist is best buy since I used to go to frys electronics alot before they shut down. I asked the frys electronics employees if they are closing because they barely had any inventory and the employees just kept on saying because of tariffs, one of employees at frys electronics told that they would be getting more stuff in stock while the other employees kept on mentioning tariffs every time I ask them about inventory, I never believed them since I always thought they were full of bs, every time I went to frys electronics, the customer service was non existent because I would see the employees talk to each other. Every time I needed help looking for something, I had to walk around the store and look for employees and I found the employees behind the computer and the employees were talking to each other. There was barely any customers unless it was like a holiday. One of the employees at frys electronics was being rude to me when I was just asking where to find the hdmi cables. The rude employee kept on recommending monster branded hdmi cables even though I told the employee that I'm looking for non branded monster hdmi cables. The employee would just point in the direction of the hdmi cables and walk away, the employee was rushing me and I was spending hours in the store taking my time. I would ask the employee how was there day but the employee did not say anything, it got to the point that I want to cuss out the the employee and flip her off, but I kept my cool because I did want to take a risk of being banned from the store. The body language of the employee was always in a rush everytime I would go to frys electronics, the employee did want to have customer interaction even when I said hi and how is there day, it was always the same female employee woman that was always in a rush and being rude to me, I shopped alot at frys electronics because they were cheaper and had more stuff when they actually had inventory so that's why I went to the store and stopped talking there employees only to ask for a specific item/items. I'm glad that frys electronics went out out business, the employees are incompetent and whenever I would ask them a basic question when looking for something in the store, they would give me the wrong products when I explained to them for what I'm looking for. I would end up buying the products because of what they recommended and than I had to keep on returning the stuff that I bought because the stuff was always incorrect and did not work properly based on frys electronics employees recommendation. I don't remember if there was a restocking on some of the stuff that I had to return.
i9 13980HX is basically i9 13900K desktop CPU in laptop form.
Would this be VR ready out of the box with this model?
If it has a DisplayPort or Mini-Displayport then yes, VR will work on this very well.
I used to own an Alienware X17 R1 (RTX 3070), it had Mini DisplayPort but with the adapter that comes with the VR headset (or buy one from Amazon for like $10) the VR will work the same as it does on a PC.
HDMI VR should also work but this is now old, Standalone headsets will also work though these are just terrible on VR anyways.
[EDIT] - This laptop does not have any DisplayPorts which is just a bad choice, but, it had USB-C that may support DisplayPort so this should work.
So to answer your question, yes VR will work on this and very well in fact.
Love that laptop
"title here" is my favorite game
I like micro centre pricing but there is no micro centre my whole continent
And on international shipping there is a huge custom duty 😭
Still rocking with Ryzen 5500u APU playing all the most intensive games ,but of course with lowered resolution, but doable .😊
I've been gaming with no dedicated graphics card.
Awesome
4080 in laptop is mind blowing
Just compared the power consumption of gpu and benchmark of time spy. 4090??? running just like 4070. Mobility discounted.
But can it run "Crysis"?
About minecraft bedrock and Java edition?
Day 8 on waiting for you to try the intel arc a750 though thunder volt which is a week now by the way.
imagine if u get the top notch cpu with the 4090 inside :D
thats not bad on the cpu. on par with a desktop 12900k
I got this with the 4090. It’s a beast
Is this the best msi gaminglaptop ?
As you see my knowledge is low. If you comlarr this with a pc with the exact same specs ? Is there no difference ? A friend of mine told me that such a laptop as this is way slower then a standalone pc. But i do not have the room. And i a lot on a ship. So i would like it to take it with me. But if it is much slower then a pc i will not buy it.
Keyboard is sprayed on ; the whole surface dissolves with sweat
4:51 My choice of color pattern as well.
The W-button is just E turned on the side..
Ddr5 was a mistake we need the improved ddr4 based ddr6 ram already
The reason it Comes with QHD+ and not UHD is because the Gt77 titan Has the UHD strictly Soo Gamers Can Opt For a personal preference on Resolution I would've got a titan if it had a 1440p display the 4k panel is just wasting potential
can you run emulation on it please ?
Wtf is the point...it can easily run it just like every phone/handheld/laptop/pc in the last 10 years
@@samgoff5289 but can it run on 4k or 8k
No g-sync is a huge bummer on that display
Right now I picked up a MSi Raider GE75, i7-10750h with a 2070, I'll have that for now until I can upgrade to a better laptop
If this can play cyberpunk on ultra settings with ray tracing @1600p for me that is more than enough (4k not needed)..
what is the battery life like ?
Imagine a 12 litre dragster with a 2 litre fuel tank.
I'd imagine arond 5 hours maximum
1.5 hour gg ???
@@crestofhonor2349 I'd imagine 5 hours to be highly optimistic.
Non existent
Good Lord have mercy ! What a device that's some crazy Fat ass performance! I've had msi gs series before and they have like the least latency on they gaming laptops .
What's the price?
$4000
insane
Title here had some good fps lol
This is way more than you need to build a emulation setup. In 2020 I bought a legion 5 Intel i7 2.6ghz GeForce gtx 1660ti I upgraded the ram to 32gb and I haven't found anything it can't run.
If u dont mind me asking whats the max resolution u could do on yuzu with this laptop? Im trying to see what laptop to buy and mostly interested in emulation
@@cristiancastaneda7931 I haven't used the switch emulator yet mainly because I have a modded 1st generation switch but my screen res on the laptop is 1920x1280
Nice. I just wish laptop batteries were stronger and held their charge for longer.
I wish they never ran out, maybe one day in the future we can have unlimited battery charge heh
@@raptorrex That will take time.
@@raptorrex yea, much better and more efficient battery technology with passive solar charging 🤞
Nuclear
@@samgoff5289 or charging based on kinetic energy via walking.
I like this 17 inch 16:10 high res high refresh rate form factor the most with not too producing cooler heading at the back, though i want the display to have smaller basels , be it thicker, or louder or both, and i want razer blade 16 and 18 size 330 watt van charger with same 90 degree connector and beaded able thogh the charger itself rubberised for protection, when dropping excidently, also more minimalistic design, better fo t for keys, no RGB around the keys, only where the fonts are , are not at the top, rather at the side like Asus scar 16 keyboard keys, also apple like force glass trackpad from a millimeter or 2 at max side to side from keyboard and the and of the laptop. Alsso only black and dark gray design, nomkogos anywhere only one apple like no RGB smart looking one on the top, Asus M16 is the best design laptop my opinion, better than apple too, but the hinge solution the display is more far back than on for eg. The razer blade 16, so the razer display hinge design is perfect, and amount of roundness on the edges of the M16 is perfect the 5op design is perfect the button design is perfect the side design is perfect, but the pack is not, make it like of the razer, and make 2.8 3.0 3.2 3.5k res of the screen with either we oled or miniled at 240 to 280hz, whatever is possible, also make it touch capable, and I'm personally would like a 360niprion with the same specs. Also make 140 charging with fan chargers and make use with the hardware the full 140 watts it gets, and also make another performance option at 100w. Also make the battery performance better. At cinebench form charger it get over 30k multicore CPU. From batter it get 11k. The scar 18 got 20k from batter. Solve this problem. Make bigger sensor 1080 60fps webcam. Windows hello , and fingerprint scanner in a same design as the previous M16 from Asus. Also make 5 custom keys for the keyboard as them and make the last raw thicker in the keyboard to make the space bar easily findable and accurate. That's about it, oh an 6400mhz ddr5 would be cool like on the new Lenovo yoga 9i pro miniled.
Render resolution on Cod Mw2 was 66%.
That laptop falls in the category of things I'll never be able to afford...
Well good news it's sold out so you don't have to worry about it.
It’s not impossible to afford it. I brought a ge67hx last year for 2500 and I’m in the market for a new laptop this year and this laptop is in the realm of possibilities
👍
🎉
at 6:54 you called it a 2080 not a 4080
Powerful
They need to make these twice as thick for better cooling and have a battery be 3 times larger... Getting tired of people trying to cram more power in a smaller space....
It's thicker than the m18 or Stealth 17. It's fine.
You're probably a desktop elitist just watching these videos to get mad lol
5 grand sheesh
