Agree with everything you say in this review. Got a Raider 7RE last week to replace my (static) damaged GE62 Apache Pro which was a similar spec . The display is lovely and has coped admirably with everything I have thrown at it, although most of the time it has been connected to my 24" Benq 2411 running 1080p at 144hz. It is much lighter than the GE62 I had and I agree about MSI's bloatware, although oddly both HDD and SSD in the machine I got were blank (result!) The Heat can be alleviated by undervolting the CPU/GPU - it really helps bringing the temps down, which will allow you to upclock the 1060 - It should then at least match the desktop version... and a bit more. Thus far very happy with my purchase, just have to sort out what to do with my dead GE62 - most of the bits are now in this Raider... :)
Nice video, Mark! Loved the intro. Do you think you could ask Corsair to send you some of their new LL series fans? Would love to see you review them and maybe use them in one of your personal rigs. Great video, as always.
hey mark how do you get your wallpapers on your screen becous i cant find them and i think they are quit cool and a high qualiti. and do you use the program "wallpaper engine" on steam? ps nice fid like always
Undervolted CPU -> Never exceeds 60 degrees GTX 1060 -> Fans kick in quite heavily once it reaches 61 degrees and it stays that way for as long as I game. So yes... A beast machine with beast cooling :)
Zain Du Toit The screen is AMAZING, I tried editing photos and it appears to be more accurate than a medium-end IPS panel. Refresh rate and response times are amazing. The only drawback I can find are the vertical viewing angles. Horizental are great.
Zakaria Youncha Thanks for replying. I was hesitant in buying it at first cause I thought the screen would be low quality. I don't mind viewing angles cause I'm the only one that's going to be using it. Peace✌️
You think this laptop is good for mmo like wow... and Diablo? Pretty much blizzard games. Does the laptop and keyboard gets too hot after 2-3 hours pure gaming while plugged in?
can you pls answer me, when doing the aida64 at what clock were all the cpu cores on, i see a 38 clock or 3800 mhz per core, if that is the case i believe the temperature stability is amazing considering it can fully utilize the turbo boost and still manage not to throttle. ofc when you play a game you will stress both cpu and gpu but not like a synthetic stress test, all and all, the performance looks pretty darn good considering the size,i think imma buy this one!
6 cores dont really help alot with todays games, so yes if you need it for gaming. If you need it for heavy calculations such as matlab and COMSOL, best go for the 6 cores ;), as this will help you out alot.
Marcos Amparo most youtubers use this keyboard lighting effect because they are tired of answering to comments asking if the keyboard has per key lighting
Hei, very usefull video. I do like this laptop and I`ve seen a good deal on it what I assume bigger brother the GE73VR /RE-265NE wich has exactly the same hardware for what I`ve figured out. just a 17 inch screen. It doesn`t bother me much as long as it keeps cooling over many years bigger, my guess, makes it less prone to overheating. What do you think? I also like that it doesn`t totaly look like a gaming laptop with TOO much red colour in it. Appreciate your vid as I`m only checking a lot of videos every time I need a new laptop wich is about 6 years and a lot has changed :)
I own the GT73EVR 7RF Titan Pro and like all msi's it rocks. I do like that multi RGB though, surely a firmware update could be done for mine........no?
Hey SilencedTech first of all good video. I have bought the same laptop a few days ago and my problem is the button on the right side ( the one for the rgb keyboard) isnt working anymore cause I changed some settings in the steelseries eninge 3. Can u help me? I dont know which setting I changed and I already redownloaded, but the thing is it works till I shut the laptop down. Thanks in Advance!
I bought the msi ge63vr 7rf for £1399 model come with gtx1070, it only came with a 128gb ssd and 1tb hdd, can i upgrade the ssd without voiding the warranty, it has a sticker on one of rhe screw
But its got a TN panel.You can get the option with an ISP panel 3840x2160,but its 60hertz,id personally stick with the 120 hertz TN version.The GTX 1070 is and amazingly powerful card,but in 4k you cant expect amazin performance,30fps average in most AAA titles.
bluelion1995 solved that when I got the non SSD version of my gs63vr 6rf and just wiped the hhd clean and installed Windows on the 512gb 960 pro ssd. Made it lightning fast and much better than even their 500gb ssd
I own the laptop and I can pretty much confirm that it is a TN panel.If you tilt the panel on any axis, you can clearly observe the colour shift. IPS panels have way better viewing angles than TN panels, so it's not possible for an IPS panel to have this much colour shift. The colour accuracy however is really good for a TN panel and I assume that's what made you think that it is an IPS panel.
Do you regret buying it? I’m torn between this and the ROG GL503 which has a 120hz IPS panel but only a 1060.. this offers a 1070 with a 120hz TN at only $100 more. What would you recommend? I personally prefer IPS as my current laptop is a TN and it sucks when compared my IPS LG monitor.
Actually, depending on where you buy this laptop from it will come with an ips panel or a tn panel. I was also confused by this, but I guess if you really want an ips panel you will need to seek out a website/store that sells them with the ips panel. forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=290960.msg1645091
Ahmed Shawky battery life is legit I mean I am getting 3.5 hours on an average with movies and games. On ideal use it can easily go above 4hours. It do support 4k output to monitors.

BTW, it has a TN panel sorry about that.
THIS highly TN Panel blows any other CHEAP IPS away!
Yeah it has a really nice screen. I thought it was 4k when I first glanced at it comparing it to other 1080p laptops
Lol I was about to comment that it’s TN.
dude how was ur experience watching movies with this laptop?
Witch one to get?This one or Acer Predator Helios 300 with the same spec?

Hollywood intros again Mr Director! Good job Marc.
Glad you liked it weaselinjeans.
Haha your super soft-sounding "hello guys!" after the Badass Hollywood-like intro really cracked me up! Good video!
Hahahaha.
Hope you enjoyed the video :)
I sure did mate.
Nice.
Of course I did :)
SilencedTech i did. Thank you
Sorry man İs it supported by g-sync ?
Nice video! Thanks! Was creeped out by the bg music, but thanks! very detailed
wait! ips panel??? isn't it TN panel?
Nice video, Mark! Loved the intro. Do you think you could ask Corsair to send you some of their new LL series fans? Would love to see you review them and maybe use them in one of your personal rigs. Great video, as always.
Hey +Kieran Woodward, Corsair have already sent some LL fans out, they'll be here any day now 👍🏻
Song name during benchmarks please
hey mark how do you get your wallpapers on your screen becous i cant find them and i think they are quit cool and a high qualiti. and do you use the program "wallpaper engine" on steam? ps nice fid like always
Hey, yes I use wallpaper engine.
but whare do you find all the wallpapers, or do you make them yourself becous i cant find them
Which one are you after? I normally just search RGB.
i like the simple graphic wallpapers like you have on this one at 3:00
ruclips.net/video/VoayBm9IbJw/видео.html
I will try and find it for you :)
Thank you. Excellent and helpful review. Getting mine at Costco for $1,200!
Justin S did u get one? How has it been? :)
This or Asus gl503vs scar?
Owner of this laptop since September. I FOOKING LOVE IT!
Undervolted CPU -> Never exceeds 60 degrees
GTX 1060 -> Fans kick in quite heavily once it reaches 61 degrees and it stays that way for as long as I game.
So yes... A beast machine with beast cooling :)
What do you think about the screen?
Zain Du Toit The screen is AMAZING, I tried editing photos and it appears to be more accurate than a medium-end IPS panel. Refresh rate and response times are amazing. The only drawback I can find are the vertical viewing angles. Horizental are great.
Zakaria Youncha Thanks for replying. I was hesitant in buying it at first cause I thought the screen would be low quality. I don't mind viewing angles cause I'm the only one that's going to be using it. Peace✌️
Zain Du Toit I also forgot to mention it has ZERO backlight bleed unlike those IPS ones.
Great intro GEE and also great video
+Neil Reid Thanks 👍🏻
You think this laptop is good for mmo like wow... and Diablo? Pretty much blizzard games. Does the laptop and keyboard gets too hot after 2-3 hours pure gaming while plugged in?
Are you sure that is IPS? I've only heard of the TN version with a 100% sRGB rating and 120hz 3ms
This is how you make a review
00:59 how!!???
Murad Alm video is reversed
Oh thx man!
Silenced squad has arrived

i need to know, what are those monitors, and whats that audio stuff on your desk?
what is the difference between GE63 RAIDER AND GP63 LEOPARD ? and which one is better ?
Whens the final setup tour coming?
+Brian Rike Soon very soon.
is it a rgb for every key that you can change in the program it self or can't you change the keys
?
How's the Adobe RGB and sRGB score does?
can you pls answer me, when doing the aida64 at what clock were all the cpu cores on, i see a 38 clock or 3800 mhz per core, if that is the case i believe the temperature stability is amazing considering it can fully utilize the turbo boost and still manage not to throttle. ofc when you play a game you will stress both cpu and gpu but not like a synthetic stress test, all and all, the performance looks pretty darn good considering the size,i think imma buy this one!
Is it still worth to buy the laptop today (price/quality)? Even though there are 6 cores laptop on the market...
6 cores dont really help alot with todays games, so yes if you need it for gaming. If you need it for heavy calculations such as matlab and COMSOL, best go for the 6 cores ;), as this will help you out alot.
Dat keyboard lighting :O
Marcos Amparo most youtubers use this keyboard lighting effect because they are tired of answering to comments asking if the keyboard has per key lighting
Great video, helped alot!
Love these intros!!!
Awesome.
Is it already have g-sync tech?
Does it really have thunderbolt 3? 40gbps? Thanks!
There is a 4K version available in my country ??

Hey Mark, is it possible to put 2 960 Pros (512GB NVMe M.2) in this and run as standard, not raid?

Will this laptop be good for destiny 2
I bought the msi ge63vr 7rf for £1399 model come with gtx1070, it only came with a 128gb ssd and 1tb hdd, can i upgrade the ssd without voiding the warranty, it has a sticker on one of rhe screw
yes but I m not sure, check Vortez review he said it I think
Just for future reference, they can't legally stop you from breaking those seals. It's never a valid reason to void warranty.
Does it have a glowing logo on the back?
yes
Received this laptop week ago, didnt even capped at 90fps (1060 6gb version) on dota2 ultra setting -,-
This or the ASUS GL502?
This :)
Aaron cooper surely this
But its got a TN panel.You can get the option with an ISP panel 3840x2160,but its 60hertz,id personally stick with the 120 hertz TN version.The GTX 1070 is and amazingly powerful card,but in 4k you cant expect amazin performance,30fps average in most AAA titles.
Beast review, Beast Laptop.
Thanks.
What bloatware did you have?
bluelion1995 solved that when I got the non SSD version of my gs63vr 6rf and just wiped the hhd clean and installed Windows on the 512gb 960 pro ssd. Made it lightning fast and much better than even their 500gb ssd
4K or 1080p version ???
Stefan van Heerden better 1080 it's brighter.
Hi Bro May I Use This Video For My Meme Content?
1974MHz? That's pretty good, no - not far from stock desktop 1060?
It’s a TN panel though

Mustafa Aqil Buy a gaming pc
achraf benmasaoud I go back and forth between my home and my dorm, so a desktop isn’t really ideal for me.
Actually, depending on where you buy this laptop from it will come with an ips panel or a tn panel.

Sick!
Thanks Jonathan.
just wanna confirm this is an IPS panel right?
No its a TN .
They really need to improve CPU temperatures.
great laptop from msi
tfw the intros are tech porno
Is it noisy?
Does it feel premium ?
Vineet Pandey indeed! I got one two months ago and surprised by the quality.
Apurv Patel is it really good battry life
and what it is only 1080 no 1440 for the monitor ?
Ahmed Shawky battery life is legit I mean I am getting 3.5 hours on an average with movies and games. On ideal use it can easily go above 4hours. It do support 4k output to monitors.
Apurv Patel thanks for respond
what about the overall performance please
