Customer Ratings & Reviews

Opening the box I was impressed with the careful packaging of this machine. I especially like the keyboard dust cover, I will use it all of the time. This computer is fast at accessing all programs, probably mostly due to the SSD. I run CAD programs like ACAD AND Revit. So a solid machine with lots of memory and RAM is essential. My previous computers were all ASUS. But this MSI Apache Pro model has great ratings and was reasonably priced compared to others like the Alienware, Acer or Razer. I am still running it through initial paces and populating it with programs and syncing Google Drive and Outlook Mail. Will provide further feed back in coming weeks.

Just upgraded from this to the GS66 & am happy to have owned the GE72MVR Apache pro! Amazing device that handled every game flawlessly that I threw at it. Even now it’s still a great bargain.

I was never about getting a gaming laptop and everyone said go with alien ware. I tried alien ware and did not like it as much. I tried this MSI GE72MVR and i love it. The graphics and processing speed are perfect. I recommend this brand to everyone.

This is a good gaming laptop, and good value for the money. The display is good, the keyboard is good and very customizable and the laptop is very light for a 17" gaming laptop. Drawbacks are that the battery life is poor (even for a gaming laptop), maybe a little over 2 hours if you set the power setting to max battery. The build quality feels a little flimsy and the keyboard and bottom do get quite hot under max load. You will not be gaming with this machine on your bare lap - at least not for very long. I got this on sale so I think the value for money was and is good. If you just want raw performance and don't care so much about the other niceties, this computer is a good buy, especially if you get it on sale.

I've only had it for about half a year but If you are looking for a good gaming laptop and don't mind noise then this laptop will work great for you! Pros: Intel 7th Gen Core I7 7700 IQ Nvidia Geforce GTX 1070 It can run mostly any game at there highest settings. It has a great colors on its 120Hz 17 inch Screen. The keyboard is amazing its quite it lights up if you want it to and if feels smooth. Cons: The Price Isn't Cheap but they do have sales It gets hot after a hour of playing games but if you keep a fan on it you are fine it shouldn't over heat. Its fans are pretty loud when you are playing games but headphones fix that problem. Lastly the storage you have to switch almost everything to the other storage because of all the windows Updates On Your C: Hard Drive but here is a link to a site that will help you switch all your downloading and stuff to the 1 TB D: hard drive. https://www.howtogeek.com/273618/how-do-you-change-windows-default-download-path/ All in all I love this Gaming Laptop!!!

I bought this computer for both school and gaming and everything has been amazing. I’m able to run all my games on ultra settings and the speakers are insanely loud (good thing). The fans get loud whenever you play demanding games but I don’t mind the noise. The dragon center helps you make sure that your computer is doing okay and that it’s at optimal temperatures as well as making sure your ssd has enough space.

We had to purchase an external optical drive, but besides that this laptop meets expectations when it comes to speed, memory, and ability! I definitely love it! I'm a photographer and extensive editor, so far...so good :)

This laptop runs great and has everything I need for school and all of my games.

I love my new laptop so fast and the keys light up making it super cool.

This is my third msi computer I don’t need to say much more about them. They are amazing in quality in every aspect. You get what you pay for and this is worth every penny.

Powerful GPU, stronger cooler boost, thin design and colorful keyboard. Also included multiple useful software in this laptop, such as fan control, keyboard color control, GPU and CPU monitors, temperature monitor. You can customize a perfect status of your laptop!

I have now had this Laptop for over a yr and it is flawless! I didn't need a gaming machine but i needed a laptop that was going to be fast for the virtual machine I am running for my degree in Networking/Cyber. It is a monster of a machine, I love it! I also now do play the occasional game and it runs it silky smooth at full settings for most games I play! MSI is amazing!

I picked this up when it was on a sale. I don't regret buying it. I can definitely say that it's one of my best investments that I ever made this year so far. I didn't get to play all games yet, but I was managed to play Rainbow Six Siege with full options with no lag. Really happy.

Great computer super fast at everything looks amazing only issue is that the c drive is small and if you dont know better like me everything will save to it automatically and fill it and when you save things to d drive that's much larger it makes it kinda laggy

Nice picture. Lots of memory. Cool keyboard. Fast. We loaded Adobe Photoshop. It works great.

This laptop has been perfect for everything that I do, work, play, etc. Very Fast!!!

Great gaming laptop with all the specs needed for most of the games you will play

A great gaming laptop on the go. I'm excited to try some of the VR options.

this was my 2nd choice of laptops, the first choice was on backorder and I needed it now so purchased this laptop and pleasantly surprised on how fast it is

This laptop overall is great. It has a decent graphics card (1070) and works well for what I need it for. Most VR games run great on it. I also have a desktop with a 1080 Ti so in comparison, the 1070 does a decent job except for Fallout 4 VR. The screen is only 1080p but has a good refresh rate and a lot of games (non-VR) play above 100fps. CONS: The biggest issue I have with this laptop is the battery life. It...SUCKS. Fully charged I get about an hour when doing normal web browsing / non-gaming stuff. Yes...an hour. On a good day. But I wouldn't really ever try to run this thing too hard without it being plugged in anyway. Another issue is the size / weight. But that's not really an issue since it's a large gaming laptop so you should expect it to be heavy and thicker than other laptops with the same screen size. Overall I would give it a 9/10.
