Reviews for the MSI GT75 Titan 8RG-089
Source: T3
Archive.org versionThe MSI GT75 Titan is a truly bonkers gaming system. It isn't best described as a gaming laptop but a shiftable gaming power station that allows you to set up a monstrously powerful computer for both play and work where ever you go. Portable in the sense of whip out on the train for a quick blast it is not, and its insatiable thirst for juice means it can barely wander from a mains electricity supply, either. However, the GT75's incredible hardware spec, 17.3-inch 120Hz display, and smorgasbord of ports and connections make it a do-anything beast that well-heeled gamers are basically mandated to check out before pulling the trigger on an upgrade.

80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
