The MSI GT73VR Titan Pro crams top-of-the-line tech and a gorgeous 120Hz display into one sleek design – but top-tier power demands an equally top-tier price tag.

100% Review: MSI GT73VR 6RF Titan Pro
Source: PC Authority English Archive.org version
As you can see, the drop from twin GeForce GTX 1080s to one hasn’t had a huge impact on performance. It’s certainly not in the same 4K leagues as the Metabox Prime-X; but it’s also two grand cheaper, and with a 120Hz 1080p screen more than fast enough to play basically any game you can think of (Well, maybe not Star Citizen’s beta…). That’s not to say that this is a cheap laptop by any means – if you want the latest in Nvidia hardware, prepare for your bank account to get burned. There’s also the fact it’s a single GPU machine, so there will never be any SLI quirks. But overall, MSI has delivered a traditional desk-bender of a gaming machine, powered by the latest and greatest in every area.

Overall, the MSI GT73VR Titan is an extremely solid platform. It’s loaded with next-gen technology, runs quietly for the most part, and hovers at the top of all of our benchmark charts. My only complaint is with the 4.2GHz overclocking option, which turns out to not be an option at all. Otherwise, this is one extremely sweet gaming notebook that seems to have what it takes to dominate its class.

70% MSI GT73VR Titan Pro Review and Ratings
Source: Computer Shopper English Archive.org version
The GT73VR left us with a mostly positive impression, though some complaints carried over from the last generation. Its switchable graphics are notable, as most notebooks with Nvidia G-Sync support can only run off the dedicated graphics card. Despite this feature, the GT73VR didn’t break the 3.5-hour mark in our battery-life test, which is on the low side even for a big gaming notebook. We’d furthermore like to see (or rather, hear) a better set of speakers, and some layout improvements to the otherwise fine SteelSeries keyboard. And while we appreciated the display panel’s high refresh rate and low response time, its vertical viewing angles left something to be desired.

Comment

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Mobile: Pascal based laptop graphics card using GDDR5 graphics memory. Should offer a similar performance to the deskto GTX 1080. However, there is also a more power efficient "Max-Q" version that performs worse than the normal GTX1080 and is used in thin and light laptops.

With these GPUs you are able to play modern and demanding games fluently at medium detail settings and HD resolution.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.  


6820HK: Skylake-based quad-core processor for notebooks. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 530 GPU and is manufactured in 14 nm.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


17.30": This display size is a standard format for desktop replacements (DTR). The DTR laptops are heavier to carry, need more power, but texts are easy to read and high resolutions are no problem. DTR are mainly intended for stationary desk use, where weight and energy hunger don't matter. In return, you enjoy the advantages of high resolutions (more details, better legibility).» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.


4.07 kg:

A laptop in this weight range is a heavyweight that you rarely carry around. This is meant for desktops and the devices tend to score with a large display and high performance and replace desktop devices.


MSI: Micro-Star International (MSI) was founded in 1986 in Taiwan. MSI is especially known as a manufacturer of motherboards and graphics cards for PCs, but also offers computer accessories, complete systems, motherboards, graphics cards, laptops, desktop PCs, monitors and other components. However, the Microstar brand name in Germany belongs to the Medion company. MSI is known for its gaming products and has developed a wide range of gaming laptops and desktop PCs. The company is also active in workstations, servers and industrial automation. MSI has offices in North America, Europe, Asia and Australia.


86.25%: This is an above-average rating. Nevertheless, it should not be forgotten that about one fifth of all tested models receive a better rating.
