Pros and Cons

MSI GE76 Raider

Strengths

Performance: This is the fastest most powerful gaming laptop that I've ever tested and if you're looking for the highest fps in gaming you found it.
Thermals: Despite this machine pushing so much power and such high performance and it being a 12th gen i9 it still wasn't hitting those 100 degree temperatures that that alienware x17 r2 did
Price: Although the alienware x17 r2 is $120 cheaper with the closest specs, the fact that this machine is not only faster but has much lower temps actually makes it a better deal for your money
Thermal performance despite high power consumption
Additional features like number pad and secondary key illumination and speakers aren't complete junk

Weaknesses

Availability: It is a little frustrating how in and out of stock every higher end configuration of this computer seems to be.
Portability: This computer is one of the larger heavier machines that I've tested as well as one of the bulkiest
Fan noise: That cooler boost function with the fans maxed out did keep thermals in check but it was kinda loud
No option for charging with USBC port
Availability and size make it difficult to carry around

MSI GE76 Raider

The MSI GE76 Raider is a powerhouse gaming laptop that promises top-notch performance, impressive thermals, and sleek features. With its 12th gen i9 CPU and NVIDIA graphics, this machine is built for the most demanding gamers. But does it live up to its potential? Our review delves into the laptop's performance, thermals, display quality, and portability, weighing the pros and cons of this behemoth gaming PC in a portable package. Is it worth the investment?

MSI Bravo 17

Seven years ago, I invested in a Samsung laptop worth around 16,000 for work and photo/video editing needs. It served me well until the fifth year when it started to slow down, freezing during video rendering and crashing frequently. A hard drive replacement with an SSD didn't fully resolve the issue, leading to frustrating experiences. I've recently upgraded to a new gaming laptop, but my trusty old one has left me with some expectations for its successor.
