Review on MSI GE66 Raider Gaming Laptop: High Performance, Intel Core i7, RTX 2070 Super, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD, 240Hz Display, Win10, Black by Vinay Sornsri ᠌

MSI also has a bad reputation regarding batteries and fans, I have a previous GS43VR laptop and the battery swelled up after a year somewhere, and the fans flew twice and it’s already difficult to find them to replace now, but it seems they write that this is a problem only in the GS series, let's see how it goes here. Has some pros On the positive side, I can note the appearance, there is no super flashy design that this is a gaming laptop, but of course not a boring office design, IMHO is optimal, the backlight looks restrained, and you can always turn it off. the display is not bad 165Hz 2K, the i7-11800H processor, on the Internet in the reviews, many write that the i9 is hot for it and the cooling does not cope, and in general the i7 is just right for it. The ports are conveniently located, the main ones: for connecting power, an external monitor are located on the back and sides of 3 USB-A and 1 USB-C. Fast SSD 2TB and there is one more slot for expansion. Good webcam 1080p. Different cons: I haven’t noticed any obvious shortcomings yet, the main thing is, of course, a rather large 280W power supply, the laptop itself is expensive, the case is easily soiled, it’s noisy under loads, but this is a laptop, so this is to be expected, noise-canceling headphones do an excellent job with the hum of fans.
