MSI GE72 Apache Pro review

 

An aggressively-styled machine with performance to match

Large display ; Tons of storage ; Strong performance

Bulky and heavy ; Battery life is not great

With the right amount of power, options and styling, the MS1 GE72 is an appealing mobile PC gaming machine. But, like most gaming laptops, don't expect a ton of longevity or portability.

MSI GE72 7RE Apache Pro Gaming Laptop Review

 

You may find the model name of the MSI GE72 7RE Apache Pro looks familiar however the devil lies in Are a GTX 1050 Ti and a Core i7-7700HQ a smart team for 1080p gaming on MSI's GE72 7RE?

Low price

GTX 1050 Ti graphics struggle with Full HD gaming.

MSI GE62 7RE Apache Pro Review

 

Armed with the very latest Intel 7th Gen. Kaby Lake Processor and NVIDIA's new GTX 1050 Ti, the 7RE seeks to cater for the entry-level gamer.

MSI GE62 7RE Apache Pro laptop review: Well-managed thermals make for a decent mid-ranger

 

This MSI device is in a very competitive spot and a number of gaming devices from rivals are slugging it out in this space. What's MSI done to stand out?

MSI GE72 7RE Apache Pro gaming laptop review

 

Less power, less weight, less money could be just what competitive gamers are looking for

Cheaper than alternatives

Under-powered for latest games

If you're a competitive gamer playing older games, this could be what you've been looking for. But this gaming "monster" can't play the latest and greatest games.

MSI GE72 7RE Apache Pro Notebook Review

 

Entry-level Gaming. The MSI GE72 revision from 2017 is interesting because of several reasons. First of all, Intel's brand new processor architecture enters the notebook segment with the Core i7-7700HQ. On the other hand, Nvidia's brand new gaming chip...

Dragon Center with many features (e.g. fan control) ; top modern hardware thanks to Kaby Lake und Pascal ; highly configurable keyboard light ; Optimus graphics switch ; 120 Hz panel ; SSD plus HDD

display frame poorly fixed in the test model ; strange behavior of the CPU clock rate ; card reader at USB 2.0 level ; GPU throttling under full load ; no Thunderbolt 3 ; poor battery

Although the GE72 7RE lacks a certification for virtual reality, you can still consider it a gaming notebook. Nvidia's brand new GeForce GTX 1050 Ti mostly offers sufficient performance for achieving halfway decent frame rates with a resolution of...

MSI GE72 7RE Apache Pro – Review

 

Gaming laptops used to be ruinously expensive, offering less power for more cash, but the emerge of Nvidia Pascal and Intel's Kaby Lake have continued pushing the envelope in the opposite direction.

This machine doesn’t have many bells and whistles, but MSI has got the important stuff right – and that makes it a compelling and affordable gaming machine.

MSI Apache Pro GE62VR 15.6" Gaming Laptop - Black

 

easy to use, easy to configure and generally quite an all round laptop, good for those who are interested in gaming or general use but don't want to invest into a desktop just yet and prefer portability.

The keyboard provided by steelseries is a little poor quality in comparison to other models (mine arrived with key hinges damaged.)

MSI Apache Pro GE62VR 15.6" Gaming Laptop - Black

 

I researched a lot and finally bought this laptop. Solid laptop for VFX editing. I use it with lightworks 14.5 and it's able to cope with it reasonably good (90%). I wouldn't say excellent though, but then it does outdo better than it's competitors for...

It's slightly heavy, but that's because it's well built and a monster in its spec.
