Model: Leading the pack for gaming laptops with Intel’s SkyLake technology, MSI has revamped its GT72 flagship offering and unveiled its latest GT72S-6QE Dominator Pro G – one of the first to implement Intel's high-performing processor in the market. Its 6th generation Intel Core i7 quad core processor does not only deliver the high performance of its predecessor, but also provides an essentially lower power consumption. The energy-saving features in this processor enable a surge in power efficiency and a longer battery life, which is useful when power outlets are not readily available or during travels.
Hardcore gamers will be delighted that this model comes with an Nvidia GeForce GTX 980M graphics adapter, which allows a smooth and lag-free experience for most of the recent, modern, high-detailed 3D games. It also comes with a Super Raid 4 storage configuration, which makes for extreme read speeds of over 3300 MB/s and loading games in mere seconds. The user experience is further enriched with its Dynaudio sound system and SteelSeries keyboard with full-color backlight, making it both a visual and audio delight. As a solid gaming device, this laptop is undeniably bulky at 3.78 kg, but it provides a generous amount of USB ports with six USB 3.0 ports and one USB 3.1 Type-C super port for connecting an external mouse, a keyboard, headsets and more. Coupled with a 17.3” Full HD wide-viewing angle display, this model, which claims to be the world's fastest gaming notebook, is surely set to be any gamer’s dream device.
