I'll never buy another MSI laptop again. The laptop performed fantastic but the build quality is shit. The hinges are wore out after 2 years of use, breaking off the monitor plastic. GE72VR
Jay, you couldn't open the laptop because you were prying in the wrong place. the bottom front and bottom back parts come out with the panel. Love your vids.
I recently bought one of these laptops and found this video when looking for help on how to open it so I could install a 2nd SSD. Glad to see I'm not the only one who was flustered by it; fortunately, I just contacted MSI technical support and the representative emailed me a disassembly guide. It's actually not that hard to get inside (and it doesn't seem likely to damage the case if you follow the directions), but there is a trick to it, and the disassembly guide does not appear available on their website yet from what I could find. Hope this helps someone else in my predicament! :)
Hey, I just ordered this laptop. Any chance you can share that assembly guide?
Waiting for the comments about the girl on the iPhone lock screen background.
Can you undervolt this pc with the msi bios?
TF for the Spec is cheaper than PC..
4:15 the panel's technology is essentially the same as IPS, but not made by LG (which owns the patent to the "IPS" name) so they cannot call it that. AHVA by Innolux or AU Optronics, probably.
💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖👍👍🤩🤩🤩🤩
waiting for mine to show up now :P
there is no thunderbolt 3,4 or otherwise on GE or GP 66/76.
If it's 91C today, brand new... Imagine after a few years when it's dusty and dirty. Nice performance, but I dunno about this one.
Now if only I could get my hands on a big black Lion😹🌃💜🇺🇸
How come pre-builders can get GPU's, but no one else can?
Jesus that’s a monster laptop.
id take 980 ti - i7 4790k 250gb evo ssd with 4tb hdd over 3070 laptop anyday.
FUCK THIS INDUSTRY THAT IS ALL - RTX 2060 owner
Cool thing about the Amd stuff is you can shut off your DGPU and still do some fairly decent gaming on far less power
Do we know if the AMD processors, like the 5900HS in the G15, make much of a difference in the FPS department? Also, should we wait to buy a laptop until AMD reveals what the performance will be on their next line of mobile graphics cards will look like? Usually I wouldn't think so, but after hearing thw praise AMD is getting with regards to the 5900HS and the potential for AMD to utilize their "Infinity Cache" for noticeable performance bumps I am hesitant to pull the trigger. Currently I am looking at getting an ASUS G15 with the 3080 and the 1440p 165hz display, but with such a budget I'd hate to have something come out in less than 6 months that's getting 15% to 20% better performance for a cheaper price. Also, if anyone made it this far, am I being ridiculous to get a laptop? I'm coming primarily from consoles. I have been trying to buy a Series X but am unwilling to pay a scalper. I have built a desktop before and know that I could get better performance for less money if I built a desktop, but I'd prefer that Im able to easily move the laptop from a desk to the livingroom tv and then to the bedroom if I want to. I figure a 3080 in a laptop, while not as strong as the desktop version, would still compete with a 3070 desktop and be relevant for possibly 4 years. The 1070 system I built when they released is still a competent machine, especially when compared to my One X. Idk. It's a lot of money and I want to get the best out of it.
I wish Mississippi had a Micro Center. It looks like such an interesting store.
Principles and integrity be damned. Gotta pay those bills and eat right?
Would like to see you review the GE76 with the 150w 3080 and test it against a 3070 desktop gpu at 1440p and 4k.
Ordered gp66 with 3080
Gotta get rid of the part behind the monitor hinge before taking off the bottom! It is very serviceable!
Oh man I haven't watched a Jay video in ages ... still shit I see. Doesn't mention the 3070 tgp on that laptop, had to look into it myself. Doesn't want to do gaming-on-battery tests even though viewers are asking about it because whatever the fuck nonsense excuse that was. Gushes for 10 minutes about the look of the laptop without mentioning a single spec - as comprehensive as ever I see. Doesn't actually show us how easy/difficult it would be to add ram/storage/blow out fans because ... I really don't know why. Pretty fucking weak. As usual. Well done Jay
Why no one has the idea of testing these new gaming laptops on a external 4K screen ?
I thought the 10875h is limited to 2997mhz ram? Even if you put 3200 in it its only going to run at 2997.
What’s the best laptop I can get for 1500
Can anyone give me some insight on what gaming laptop I should buy? I wanna spend around 1000-1600 I want a desktop but can unfortunately because I’m suppose to deploy soon. Any advice is appreciated
I have a 970, a lot of GPUs make me cry.
nice 30 series GPU laptop Jayson they look cool
I'd love to get a: 5900HX, 3080 with 16GB, 32 GB of RAM, 1 TB TLC NVMe (NO QLC!!) SSD, slot for 2nd NVMe and 1440p @ 144 Hz screen. In dark colour case. With a webcam. This is 2021.
I have the GL65 9SD with the GTX1660ti, with that thicker laptop body it has really good thermals. It just doesn't run too hot. When i see these really thin laptops with these insane GPU's and CPU's in them, i get nervous about the thermals.
Have been to some Micro Center stores around east coast, they have professional associates that really know about what they sell. And they have various of MSI laptop lineup as well :)
lol scale cost too much?
Does keeping a laptop plugged in overcharge the battery? I had a macbook pro back in the day and used it plugged in most of the time. After 8 years the battery eventually swelled up. Want to use the GP66 as a desktop too.
$NOK to the moon 💎🙌🚀🚀🚀🌝
hey Jay alot of your Canada links to Amazon gives a blank please address this , love the vids
2 Laptops.....light flex
PSA: if you don't care about RTX, you can save yourself hundreds of dollars and just get a 1080ti Max Q laptop. Used they go for about 1000 or less used even in today's market. Great all-rounders running 144hz 1080p displays for often under $1k
hey dumpster, start the video directly with the GPU TDP , and yeah , fuck your sponsors , we don't give a shit. omfg , is already one minute in the video and still goes on about it. Is 115W as they claim , or is 80W ?
Unfortunately it is not AMD.
How reliable is msi gaming laptop?
I want this laptop 😔
Hey Jay, send me the laptop if you want. I'd be more than happy to do a video showing you how to open it up, without leaving a single mark. I'll send it back when I'm finished. Dale
1. RTX 2070 with mid range desktop cpu gets 90 fps in borderlands 3 bench, which is greater than mobile rtx 3070 (80-ish fps). 2. 1080p on 27 inch desktop screen is considered competitive for esports. Why would laptops (even at 17 inch, have a panel that goes beyond 1080p?) thats just silly, and its not just my opinion. Pixel density etc... 3. RTX3080 mobile is 74% less powerful than desktop rtx 3080. ref: notebookcheck. 4. "Gaming laptops" have always and will always suck, because of videos like this promoting watered down hardware at premium prices. 5. Gaming laptops run hot, keyboards are poor quality and GPUs are power envelope constrained. Don't know about you, but if I was sponsored by MSI, i would probably also praise their pieces of crap like this. Lets remember, MSI was scalping their own GPUs in 2020 to jack up market prices. Thanks for promoting the devil, Jay...
hmm..that's quiet a bad review..maybe it's more intended for edutainment
Will save you guys time they are not fast they are lower than 20 series speeds but marketed and sold at 30 series prices a 30 series desktop is blazing fast.
An Intel processor in early 2021 makes no sense in 2021 third quarter it may That is unless the price is right it should be a budget laptop why gimp your laptop build with a CPU powered with an Intel processor
Well its 2121 and still no gaming laptops ...
Hi JAY - First and foremost: Your honest coverage of all things gaming is invaluable and I'd like to take the opportunity in this post to thank you. A quick question: Are you able to confirm if the GP series have proper MUX switches? Also what did you think about the backlight bleed?
nice girl in your phone! can i get her number? ;)
So it’s weak and false advertising calling it a 3070
Ok, but What about the issues with the battery when charging the laptop, any sort of problem, degradation..... Thats something to have consiusnes...
Lisa was able to remove the bottom cover...irworld.info/show/fy-lm-h-y/qX51eKijlNZ6s6Y.html LOL!!
You can't get the bottom off because it doesn't come off there. The front and the back has a wrap around piece. Pry off near the keyboard in the front and the monitor area in the back.
Vents through the keys = hand warmer
It’s perfect for quality vr gaming.
U have to pry the back of fr the other end where the heatpipes are it will come up from there don't worry about breaking it it's just like that I have GS66 stealth last year model
While 3200Mhz ram is nice, the CPU itself goes as high as 2933Mhz if you don't overclock it
Where's the G703's successor?
i hope that this model has stronger hinges compared to the 65. i had one, new screen was swift repaired, but it only lasted one month passed warranty. the screen stayed black. and a 2.5 year old laptop repair suddenly was 1200 euro (50% of original price) suddenly mobo, battery and network controller defect. :-( (how... it worked with a monitor plugged in) not going to buy an MSI again
The only gaming laptop worth getting is a razer blade. Its sleek, very thin, and all metal. Something that can be used for work or play. That thing would make you look like a clown if you tried to use it for professional use. You want it to be able to do both.
That thing is still too bulky and obnoxious to lug around, looks like its from 2004. The best way to make a gaming laptop is to make it look very plain and subtle and easy to bring with you, not a bulky dinosaur that is going to make everyone stare at you in a cafe or something. Honestly razer blade is the only one to really understand this concept and is the reason why everyone loves them. The razer blade 15 is just so beautiful and sleek and VERY thin.
Gaming laptops that are so bulky and tacky looking are completely pointless. Just get a PC at that point. The only benefit of a gaming laptop is being able to stuff it into a backpack and have it be super light and convenient, no gaudy and huge! Razer Blade for the win!!!!
I'm commenting my comment on my onion on mt opinion. If you going to buy a thirty series card it should be an investment you should get money back. I'm finally seeing the attractiveness of these for production quality in the realm of guy who care about making cinematics with a good chunk of change. these in laptops smell like bad cocaine, induced money.
How much of a performance increase would I see compared to my RTX2060/i7-9750H Blade 15? Is it worth upgrading now?
What did i miss in the video that everybody is with the “In s laptop” comment?
is the MSI logo black or should we try to peel that down?
Jay why are you n00b?
Nice... Alas, I imagine that this laptop is going for around 3K.
95c and i tought my 5800x was hot 80-90c
Solid state SSD as opposed to the non-solid state ssds
You have to go to the automated atm to get the cash cash money to buy the solid state ssd
fake this laptop does not have thunderbolt !!!
I'm just waiting for decent RTX 3060, maybe 3050 laptops, also gonna see how AMD does in the laptop GPU department, if they do well then that too. I WILL have to buy a new laptop mid this year so let's see 😤
No one: Jayz: Comment section first hour: in s laptop
I wish we had a micro centre in the UK
How many TDP have this laptop? And with 3080?
It does not have TB4 since it's 10th gen Intel CPU.
Hire me i can get into msi laptops lol
Anyone can get into one.... the problem is if it is usable afterwards....😁
literally just an ad. fuck MSI
grate review -> 5.25 pounds is 2.38 kg for the rest of the world. , next time can i ask the battery life overall ? not for gaming just how long will it run in normal use. and thnx.
another product review you cant buy. Appreciate it!
can someone explain to me whats the different between msi gp leopard and msi ge raider? because i think they have similar spec but leopard is cheaper than raider
The idea of a laptop makes me claustrophobic...
Ya desk users will cry tears of joy when they see the 30 series laptops for 20% slower
I love that you emphasize how bad of an idea it is to actually test a battery on a ‘gaming’ laptop. And I say that because YOU emphasize that the word ‘gaming’ on pc parts is a gimmick. Yes you can game on them, but they are not full desktops. I have a 2 year old ASUS ROG laptop that says ‘gaming’ of course. The battery does not last long even if I’m not gaming and have everything turned down. But I rarely use it unplugged. If I do I am using it on ‘borrowed’ time basically. I unplug it, do what I need to do really quick, and get back it plugged back in. But I am also not really using it for gaming anyway. Honestly I bought it as a ‘cheap’ option for running plex, but I wanted something that wasn’t going to be fully obsolete within 2 years. “I digress”. Lol. Don’t buy a laptop if you want full on gaming. They do still have a steep price for what you can do. The portability is the best part... high five jay on your review. I still love your videos after all these years. Honestly some of the most entertaining stuff I have to watch. Quarantined or not
Get so frustrated at seeing these reviewers who have had the RTX 3000 series for many months (for free) while most of us still cannot buy a single card for retail price. I refuse to buy one for double retail price from some scum bag, sliezeball scalper who gets off on every card he sells on Ebay. Just pisses me off
The reason we cant find any at retail prices is because those scumbags buy them out and re sell them for twice the price they bought them for. They know right now everyone is looking for them.
i miss the xmas opening jingle
how can anyone whos not willing to pay scalpers, or are scalpers themselves get hyped for gpu news? its been 5 months since rtx 3000 launch and there are still no gpu's what makes anyone think these laptops will be different? are there actually gonna be laptops available?
That new blacked out MSI laptop looks awesome.
Well I'm not upgrading I'm rocking this not even a year old 20 serires laptop. Earliest I would consider upgrading would be next years RTX 4,000 series. Might be tempted for 2 generations ahead. 1 mehhhh
The closest Micro Center for me is 9 hrs. Maybe we’ll get one some day; as from what I hear, they seem a bit better than BestBuy (is what I’ve heard).
Jay, you have to try (and review) the new ASUS Flow X13 so you don't have to take two laptops everywhere you go! ^_^
I bet Mr. Tech Jesus Steve would take the challenge of getting this thing apart.
13:05 264 people who actually leave motion blur on gave a thumbs down.
O yea, the dragon center software is complete garbage. I uninstalled that piece of bloatware.
Too bad that isn't a real 30 series. Its a throttled down version with the 30 series branding. I have a late 2020 version GT76DT with a i9-10900k; 2080 super and it crushes every "AAA" game I play on it. Even the current gen consoles don't stand a chance.
Make a video on gpu prices and your take on it.
Nice laptop like the stealth look I do like laptops with all the lights but would like too own this one very nice video
Why am I watching this? I can't afford a desk...
