MSI GE60 Apache Pro-003 review

We're seeing an influx of new and updated gaming laptops, thanks to the March release of the new 800M-series graphics cards from Nvidia . Most of these cards are going into massive 17-inch desktop replacement systems, but it's nice that even some of...

Nvidia's new GTX 860M GPU is the real highlight of the MSI GE60 Apache Pro-003 notebook, along with a high-end CPU and a great keyboard. The Pro-003 is smaller and lighter than most gaming laptops, and it doesn't have the usual overly glossy screen.

This is still a thick, chunky box that's out of step with modern laptop design. The screen isn't a touch screen and tops out at 1080p.

The MSI GE60 combines one of Nvidia's new 800-series GPUs and other high-end components, in a gaming rig that's not the desk-hogging backbreaker some others are.

MSI GE60 (GTX 960M) Notebook Review

Solid gamer. The MSI GE60 is a powerful, yet affordable, gaming notebook. The laptop performs well but suffers from high noise and temperature emissions.

Matte FHD IPS screen, Decent performance, Free mSATA slot, Lots of storage space, Maintenance flap

Cover too easy to deform, Modest brightness

The MSI GE60-2QEWi781 offers sufficient performance to run any game fluidly. However, the laptop gets quite loud and hot. On the bright side, the laptop is equipped with decent input devices and an HDD with lots of space. The user can even install an...

Review MSI GE60-i789W7H Notebook

Gamers' choice? MSI hopes to attract mobile gaming fans with the

Matt screen with good contrast and brightness; 2x USB 3.0; High application and gaming performance; Attractive price-performance ratio; Powerful speakers
