MSI GS60 Ghost Pro 3K review

One of the first 3K gaming laptops impresses

Excellent screen ; Solid 3K performance ; Stylish design ; Fantastic keyboard

Runs extremely hot ; Lackluster battery life

Thin, light and 3K are what this grand gaming laptop excels at, but save some dough and go for the 1080p version.

MSI GS60 2QD-470UK review: The most totable gaming laptop in its field

New advances in graphics processor technology have been followed with promises of thinner and lighter gaming laptops. But the MSI GS60 2QD-470UK is the first high-performance notebook designed for gamers that really delivers on that promise.

While still not especially petite by the standards of some 15-inch laptops – its footprint is 14 percent larger than a MacBook Pro despite its smaller display – the MSI GS60 2QD-470UK does manage to keep within the magic size and weight figures of 2.0...

MSI Scores With Ghost: Desktop-Power Gaming in a Laptop [REVIEW]

MSI's GS60 Ghost is the best way to game on the go today. It's got enough power to run any game and make it look good, and it'll do it in style.

Terrible trackpad ; Flimsy plastic case ; Limited hardware customization

If you like PC gaming, you will love the MSI GS60 Ghost.

MSI GS60 Ghost review: a gaming rig in Ultrabook's clothing

The GS60 Ghost is a slim and powerful option for gamers who want a lightweight rig. If you're going to spend that kind of money, though, wait for the unreleased GS60 Ghost Pro, which will bring a sharper display and better graphics.

Simple, elegant design ; Powerful ; Great trackpad for productivity

Disappointing audio ; Average battery life ; Trackpad is lousy for gaming

Like the Razer Blade, the Ghost plays to a specific niche: gamers who want the power of a full-fledged gaming PC without sacrificing portability or aesthetics. It's a small subset of the notebook market, but MSI's GS60 fits right in: It's thin,...

MSI GS60 6QE Ghost Pro Notebook Review

Gaming with Skylake. MSI has updated its GS60 by equipping it with a new Skylake processor. But this is not the only new feature of the new model. However, the drawbacks of the old model are still issues in the current gaming companion.

individual keyboard illumination, high system performance, aluminum chassis, thin construction, no throttling

limited maintainability, battery discharges under load, touchpad suffers from delays, meager runtimes, pulsating fans

Once again, MSI offers a nicely designed and slim gaming notebook. Fortunately, the current version features a USB 3.1 port. The second new feature is the DDR4-RAM. However, our main focus was the Skylake processor, which manages solid overall results....
