Archive.org versionThat may turn out to be the key differentiator between the two, and it’s probably MSI’s best bet at wooing the select few looking for an insane laptop to replace their desktop. The company bucked the trend of slim and light notebooks with the Titan Pro, but even if it can get away with that for now, it’s not clear how much of an audience there will be for a niche product like that going forward.

Model: Certified by both Nvidia and VIVE, MSI is the 1st VR ready gaming laptop brand. The MSI GT75VR 7RF-012 Titan Pro is a bulky gaming laptop that combines all the advantages and disadvantages of a desktop replacement and relies on a mechanical keyboard with colorful lighting. Inspired by the GT83VR, the whole new GT75VR offers profound improvements in both sight and touch. MSI sticks to its traditional design language for the casing's look. The dark surfaces, some of which are brushed aluminum (lid, keyboard area), are adorned with red components that give the 17-inch machine a playful look. The wrist rest's material surprised us a bit. MSI has opted for a soft-touch finish like a rubber coating, which is just as sensitive as the other surfaces here. The 120 Hz panel has been adopted from the GT73VR. The N173HHE-G32 (CMN1747) is a Full HD screen based on TN technology. Apart from the middling viewing angles (typical TN problem) and mediocre brightness (average: 262 cd/m²), it does a good job. The low black level of 0.26 cd/m² results in a very high contrast (approx. 1,050:1) that is on par with the competition. MSI's GT75VR is definitely situated in the premium range with its lightning-fast Kaby Lake processor and exorbitantly expensive top model from Nvidia's Pascal generation. 32 GB of DDR4 RAM and 1.5 TB of storage also point to a genuine desktop replacement that offers high future security. MSI has intentionally omitted Nvidia's brand new Max-Q design in the GT75VR, allowing the GeForce GTX 1080 to show its full beauty.
The performance of Nvidia's next-generation GeForce GTX 1080 GPU is expected to be more than 40% better than the GeForce GTX 900M series'. Thanks to the powerful cooling system, the DirectX 12 chip supported by a generous 8 GB of GDDR5X VRAM can use its clock potential extremely well. A user can also live the most incredible and immersive 3D sound experience with Nahimic, highly acclaimed by gaming communities across the world. It offers high definition sound technology that boosts the audio and voice performance of the gaming computer. In 2017, the Nahimic 2+ release brings customizations like audio profile creation or more fine-tuning options for the Sound Tracker. The mechanical keyboard by SteelSeries is absolutely pleasing. With only 3 mm of total key travel distance and 1.5 g actuation, this ultimate gaming system is yet another revolutionary keyboard built for victors. After typing on this mechanical keyboard, users will never want to return to a traditional keyboard. With the introduction of the new arrow-shaped design for a heightened aggression appeal, the palm rest has also been elevated to have better ergonomics and comfort on the wrists after long periods of gaming. The GT75VR 7RF-012 Titan Pro is certainly in the top segment of the gaming laptop category. If one is willing to pay the price, this is one of the ones to look out for.

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.
