REVIEW PROMOTION If you’re wondering which wonderful Creator laptop to buy from MSI, the Creator 17 has a very unique trump card: an HDR screen with 240-local dimming zones.

CONTRIBUTED REVIEW The gaming notebooks of yesteryear were thick, noisy, heavy, expensive breadbaskets that were only technically regarded as portable. The good news is that the modern equivalent is a whole different beast. It’s typified by MSI’s GE75 Raider which offers top-end, gaming-friendly components in a 17-inch chassis that, at less-than 3cm thickness, most certainly can be regarded as a portable PC.

SPONSORED REVIEW MSI’s GS75 Stealth laptop is a special beast, and MSI knows it. Eschewing the familiar black and red livery for diamond-cut, gold edging, dragon logo and hinge details, the GS75 looks simultaneously luxurious and sophisticated.

CONTRIBUTED REVIEW In the universe of MSI laptops, the ‘Gaming Legend’ GL65 Leopard series is one of the most attractive to those who desire uncompromising gaming (and media creation) performance while on the move. It’s a 15.6-inch notebook but squeezed into a body you’d associate with a 14-inch unit; measuring just 357 x 248 x 28mm and weighing only 2.3KG.

MSI makes a laptop for everyone, with multiple SKUs available for each shape and size. This model does everything for everyone.

We’ve been impressed by MSI’s all-rounder notebooks for a couple of years now.

… or at least part of it – the trench, as used in Rogue One. This is the opening gambit from Colie Wertz who is both a 3D modelmaker and a concept artist who has worked on some massive movies over the past decades. Other highlights include contributing the internals of IronMan’s suit for Avengers: Civil War plus part of the main space ship from Galaxy Quest.

Computex gave us the opportunity to get hands on with two of MSI’s new gaming laptops: the all-rounder GE65 Raider which offers plenty of portable power and the beastly GT76 Titan which eschews portability in favour of even more power. Their predecessors have been particular favourites of ours in recent years so we were looking forward to seeing what the latest iterations brought with them.
