the best laptop thermal cooling from factor under 2.8kg with GTX1070 so far for now.

Honestly, a laptop without a battery is just a tiny desktop with loud fans - having the ability to at least sit through a meeting or work on my essay in the living room for 3 hours is vital in order for me to be able to really consider a machine "mobile"hmscott likes this. -
Tiny but LOUD desktops!!
So skinny that they emanate waves of fan noise with laser-like pin-point precision; aimed at knocking your gaming opponents out of the game!!
Perfect for eSports!!
Max-Q laptops took it one step closer by reflecting fan noise away from the player, and out into the room - now take it all the way as an offensive tactic with Max-Q Desktops!!don_svetlio likes this. -

Is it G-Sync? This would probably be my choice over the GS73. A good middle size between that and the Titan, and the only thing it seems to lack is 1080 option
Also, why are there no reviews of it? Google and Youtube search bring up nothing other than Computex articles. It's been on sale for quite awhile, that seems pretty odd. -
I just order the GE63VR Raider -002 from GenTechPC. They have some nice deals going on at the moment.

@ don_svetlio @hmscott
I noticed that there is no more G-SYNC feature on the newer models, GE63VR and GE73VR are already out in the market and It's confirmed that they don't have G-SYNC.
Why did MSI backed away from G-SYNC? It's really backwards for them to do so.
I hope that they don't take away G-SYNC for the new MSI GT75 though.Last edited: Jul 22, 2017 -

GE73VR: 419 x 285 x 28.5mm, 2.8kg, 51Wh
GL702VM: 415 x 280 x 24mm, 2.7kg, 76 Wh
GT72 & GT73 already have G-Sync. So, I think GT75 will have this feature too. -

G-sync is tight to dGPU only so only GT can do that. but assume display output (HDMI or DP) still do -

Just noticed if you what to use the Tridef cam software that comes with the laptop so you can use the webcam, you have to buy it.

Noticed last night that the battery was at 91% and not charging. This morning turned it on and it was at 89%. Haven't really used it alot. Still working on getting bloatware removed before I really test it. Hopefully in the next couple of days.
I'm going to run the battery conditioner later when I have a chance and see what the result is.Everson Santos Araujo likes this. -

I uninstalled the VR portion thinking that was the issue, but it's the software itself. The software seems to work but the images are reversed. Since it's just a utility and not required driver, I'll change it out. Found a program called ManyCam (free) that I will try out.

Another disappointment. Why is there no thunderbolt 3 port in this machine? Isn't it the new trend now? The keyboard on this laptop is cool though.

Heads up friends, the GE73VR Raider uses a 120hz 5ms panel, while the GE63VR Raider uses the "new" 120hz 3ms panel. Tbh I know for a fact I won't see a difference between these as the ms are already so low, but I ordered a GE73VR and I confirmed it's the 120hz/5ms screen.
Edit: I'm wrong about the GT75VR. It uses the 120hz/3ms.Last edited: Aug 4, 2017 -

The GT75VR Titan with the mechanical keyboard uses the exact same screen as the GT73VR?
Wasn't it advertised that the GT75VR would use the "3ms" screen?
What's going on here?

I am debating between this and the Dominator with pretty much the same specs. Is the all aluminum construction, updated cooling, per key RGB and smaller footprint worth the $100?
Also do they both use the same 120hz displays? -
-
By the way, is the stock paste on the Raider liquid metal?

I just ordered the GE73VR Raider -003 from GenTechPC. Ken was super responsive and I upped for the Liquid Ultra repasting. If you guys want me to run anything let me know!

I expect to get a decent GPU OC with the liquid metal thermal solution. Cannot wait to FireStrike and chill.

I don't think so, it has Intel Graphics.

I didn't have time to install a lot of things in it yet, but just to share some more info.

Just placed order for MSI GE73VR Raider-003 from GenTechPC. Looking forward to the updated system and a lighter backpack load. The MSI GT's have served me well but a new system in a lighter package is even better.
As mentioned previously, Ken and his staff at GenTechPC have been the best over the years.
And now the waiting game plays out again...... waiting for that "shipped" email confirmation to hit the inbox.Donald@Paladin44 and Entionz like this. -
To the guys who already own it:
General impressions?
How is the machine doing temps and performance wise?Last edited: Aug 17, 2017captaincranium likes this.
