MSI GT80 2QE Titan SLI-023UK

 

MSI produces more gaming laptops than virtually any other company, and its latest model, the GT80 TItan, doesn't just deploy high-end hardware – it's also one of the most innovative gaming portables we've seen.

Incredible gaming speed ; Top-notch processor ; Four SSDs in RAID 0 ; Mechanical keyboard ; High-quality screen

Heavy and chunky ; Poor battery life ; Prohibitively high price

MSI GT80 Titan review

 

The world's most powerful gaming laptop is more like a foldable desktop

Authentic mechanical keyboard ; Unsurpassed performance ; Easily upgraded

Virtually non-existent battery life ; H-E-A-V-Y ; Impossible to use on your lap

The MSI GT80 is a real treat, with stellar performance, easy upgrades and a mechanical keyboard. However, this gaming rig is a heavy burden on your wallet and back.

The ultra-high-end gaming notebook GT80 2QE Titan SLI is in the spotlight; featuring NVIDIA GTX 980M SLI, 32GB DDR3, 4x SSDs in Raid0 and the world's first mechanical keyboard on a laptop. Excited much?

MSI GT80 Titan SLI

 

The MSI GT80 Titan SLI is a powerful gaming laptop, and the first we've seen with a mechanical keyboard, but top performance doesn't quite overcome a hulking, awkward design.

Potent performance with an Intel Core i7-4720HQ processor and dual Nvidia GeForce GTX 980M graphics. Unique design with mechanical keyboard. Giant 18.4-inch display. Components are easy to access and upgrade.

Clunky design. Short battery life.

Conclusion The MSI GT80 Titan SLI is impressive in a lot of ways. It offers powerful graphics performance, an easy way to access components for upgrading, which is relatively unheard of for notebooks, and the first full mechanical keyboard in a laptop....

MSI GT80 Titan review: A crazy-fast gaming laptop with an old-school desktop keyboard

 

MSI's has a real mechanical keyboard, and enough graphics power to tempt even the most committed desktop gamers.

SLI 980M cards capable of 4K gaming ; A mechnical keyboard

Bulk and heavy ; As expected, battery life is mediocre at best

MSI's GT80 Titan SLI features an actual mechanical keyboard and a pair of GeForce GTX 980M GPUs in SLI. That makes this laptop actually faster than the majority of gaming desktops out there.

Poor battery life, even for a gaming notebook; Speakers could use more bass ; With its face-melting performance, a fantastic mechanical keyboard and upgrade-friendly chassis, the MSI GT80 Titan SLI is the gaming laptop to beat.

MSI GT80S Titan SLI Review

 

The GT80S 6QE gaming notebook not only delivers two GTX 980M graphics cards and a mechanical keyboard that made the GT80 so impressive, but also leverages a new Intel Skylake processor and DDR4 system RAM for even greater performance.

Outstanding performance ; Fantastic mechanical keyboard ; Great speakers ; MXM graphics cards and multiple upgrade options

Loud cooling fans ; Sometimes odd mix of metal and plastic ; Uneven screen brightness ; Wake from sleep issues

MSI GT80 2QD Titan Notebook Review

 

Larger than life. Where else can you find an 18.4-inch notebook with integrated mechanical Cherry keys? We revisit the GT80 with upgraded Broadwell specifications.

Mechanical Cherry MX Brown keyboard, 6x storage bays total, Relatively low core temperatures; Strong cooling system, Acceptable fan noise when gaming, Overclocking headroom, High quality and bright matte display, Rigid, high quality construction, Good...

No tactile Numpad; No Macro keys, No external desktop GPU support, No comprehensive fan controls, No Thunderbolt; No HDMI-in, No 2K/3K/4K options, No PCIe x4 slots, No G-Sync, Fans are always audible, GPU switch requires restart, Soldered CPU

The bottom line is if you're going to get an 18.4-inch gaming notebook, then make it the MSI GT80.
