    Powerful laptop that's held up over the years. The only drawback really is how loud the thing is. Sounds like it's about to take off when it starts working hard.

    I purchased the MSI stealth as a CAD machine and to process large raster files. This machine has performed flawlessly and is pretty quick. It is much nicer looking than the "work station" options, thinner, and jus more modern looking. I was a little worried about how thin the laptop is and the heat, but I have been pleasantly surprised at how cool it runs. I guess what i'm using it for just doesn't tax it enough to build up the heat.

    I like the speed of boot ups. I have 5 monitors running in HD so that's seems ok but you'll need hdmi adapters. The VGA would lag out with that many monitors. Everything pops and is very fast screen resolution is stellar. Audio sounds great. The reason for the 4 is the key board. Its modified with reduced areas for the number pad! And then relocation of the delete key, arrow keys, windows key. I find it annoying and unforgivable that you would mess with something so standardized. I also use this exclusively for business and with the keyboard modified it's a deal killer for me. I was going to change it out but elected to get a remote keyboard. Only recommended if you want a remote keyboard or want to learn to type again

    Great Portable Gaming Device

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This device feels solid, from the moment you pull it out of the packaging to the moment you open it. It has an awesome 6 core processer, that is plenty fast, and handles multi-tasking like a champ. It runs DDR 4 @ 2400, which can not only be upgraded to 32 Gigabytes, but you can get the upgraded memory clock speeds too. I have had this device for over a day now and I love it. I love the feel of the keyboard, its quiet and feels comfortable. The keys feel smooth and my hands feel relaxed after extended use. I personally am not a big fan of the track pad, It's not awful, but playing games or doing things that require a right click or fast paced movement, this can slow you down, and makes things awkward. For portability it is acceptable, useable and adjustable via configuration settings, I will most likely use a USB / BT mouse. Thunderbolt 3 IS great, it allows me to keep this device and upgrade the GPU with an EGPU option ensuring I get longevity, and a possible DTR (Desktop Replacement) that will allow me to update the graphics card as time goes on, and allowing me to be portable with a decent dedicated graphics card when needed. Thankfully MSI kept the SD Card slot on the side, which is nice, as many devices still use SD/MICRO options. I love that there is still an Ethernet port on this bad boy, allowing me to play at LAN parties if need be. Wifi works ok, I feel like it might conk out a few times, however I don't feel like this is a fault on MSI as much, feels like this is more of a driver issue, potentially a Windows issue. Keyboard RGB color combinations / modifications, are way cool. However I am not somebody who will take advantage of the cool features, one thing I did love and want to note is that the default FN button highlights the selectable control keys red. Such as volume up, down etc.. This is awesome because sometimes they can be pretty easy to lose sight of, this is a nice default, makes finding key binds easy. Gaming on this device is pretty sweet. Normally I have not been a fan of the Optimus (Intel / Nvidia ) due to a lack of gsync, yet it still handles games pretty easily. Screen is only 60hz, not a big issue for the price point.. I feel games look great and vibrant, and battery life is ok when you don't game. I am looking to see if there is an external battery pack that can power this device while I am on the go, and perhaps might purchase a secondary battery for long trips. For me battery life isn't too big a deal, as this device will mostly stay plugged in. The weight on this thing is amazingly light. Even the power brick is on the smaller side. I personally travel a lot, and love that this is so thin, so light and feels sturdy. I love the flexibility of the screen, I was able to the point the laptop looked like a giant tablet. Would I suggest this, or use this? Probably not, but it is still pretty neat. I've read a lot of reviews about people saying the device gets loud. I personally don't think it is loud. I had a Predator 17 X with a 1080 Graphics card, thing weighed 20 Lbs, it got hot and loud, sounded more like a jet ready for take off. This device when under full load can get noisy, but it isn't as exaggerated as every one makes it out to be. As I write this review in a Barnes and Noble Starbucks, this device makes no noise under normal use. I played Metamorph on high settings, device fan's didn't kick in. I went into the configuration settings and set it on Cooler Boost. In a public place, This might be considered loud, but you can change these settings, and adjust the fans as needed. Not a big deal PROS Memory can be upgraded to 2666 and a max of 32 GB HDD and M2 Drive can be upgraded Keyboard is amazing and light up features are pretty cool Multiple USB 3 Ports Ethernet Port Portable and light Screen is vibrant and can fold down flat, which is pretty crazy cool Upgradability with Thunderbolt 3 is totally worth it alone Price Cons TrackPad not optimal for playing games Fans can get noisy but require managing settings to make them quiet in a public place. Battery Life can be pretty short 60hz screen, other companies are able to provide 120 / 144hz at same price level Optimus / No Gsync Input output ports including headphone, TB3, USB are all close to each other, if you have any large / big connections this can easily block a port. Not a deal breaker as you can always get hubs / 3rd party accessories if need be. Overall, this is an amazing, lightweight device. Not only can it handle games well, provide futureproofing specs, but can also be carried in a backpack or in your hand and hardly feel it, when compared to other laptops. Is it worth the price? Yeah, without a doubt. I sold my Gaming Acer Predator 17 X with a 1080 Graphics card, for a more portable option for gaming and work. I am glad I did.
