    I have owned the GS66 for a few days but it has not disappointed me. I wanted a laptop with the capability to play the most demanding games but have a simple look. It's thin and doesn't look like the prototypical outlandish gaming laptops often seen, which is perfect for me. If you didn't know the MSI brand, you could be fooled. The hefty standard power cable is the biggest give-away. All-in-all it's a powerful computer for it's thin size with the cooling ability to keep it around 80 degrees Celsius while playing highly demanding games. It's noise is manageable and has a quality feel to it. Comparing the quality of material and feel to the Dell G3 I own, I'd easily say the MSI GS66 wins.

    My First MSI Laptop

    This is my second gaming laptop. My first gaming laptop was an Evoo and under 1000$. I promised myself I would never spend this much on a gaming laptop but here I am. I did my research on the processor, GPU, and other important specs before making my purchase. I also read the reviews to make sure they weren't paid reviews. Out of the 200+ reviews on best buy a lot of them spoke highly on this laptop. I read there is more then one RTX 3060 though. I'm hoping this is the higher powered laptop version. I will try to find out. I will update my review later after having for a month. Also on userbenchmark this laptop had great test results!

    This thing is not a potato and can probably power an Alien Spacecraft going near the speed of light. Any games or programs you run on it will be a piece of cake and can expect satisfying levels of performance. It’s quite lightweight and super portable, if anything the charger is heavier than the laptop itself. The fans at full speed are not too loud and definitely not a fighter jet engine. The only downside is the battery life but the MSI AI system settings can take care of that. Overall, I recommend investing on this so you can teabag a bunch of toxic gamers at 240fps.

    Good laptop with the GTX 3060 gpu and intel processor. It runs hot, but most lightweight laptops with the level GPU do. Recommend a cooling pad.

    I am thoroughly impressed by the overall performance of this laptop. Graphics and frame rates are smooth when plugged into the charger. This is my first gaming laptop purchase so I was unaware of the harsh drop in quality of graphics when not plugged into the charger. Not too big of a dealbreaker since I play at a desk anyway. It was a little buggy at the start as well. The first game I ever booted up hard crashed my entire laptop, I could not even shut it down completely. Through and through it was well worth the purchase. Games run great and the graphics are outstanding.
