MSI GE66 Raider Review: Good-Looking 300 Hz Powerhouse

 

Unapologetically extra

Great gaming performance ; 300 Hz display ; Well-executed RGB light bar ; High-end build

Cramped keyboard ; Tinny audio

The MSI GE66 Raider sits atop a beautiful RGB bar, and that’s just the start of its premium build. Gaming framerates are competitive or better than slightly pricer rivals, and the 300 Hz screen is great for esports.

MSI’s GE66 Raider Dragonshield Edition is a beautifully extra gaming laptop

 

Powerful, colorful, and quite expensive.

Unique and super cool design ; Powerful graphics performance ; 300Hz display ; Comes with a model spaceship!

Weird keyboard layout ; Some buggy software ; No Thunderbolt ; Pricey

The MSI GE66 Raider Dragonshield Edition is a gaming laptop that’s designed to look like part of a spaceship. Armed with Intel’s Core i9 and Nvidia’s RTX 2070 Super, it delivers excellent graphics performance — but that all comes with a steep price tag.

A stunning gaming laptop with the grace of an X-wing

Ridiculously stunning design ; Excellent performance and graphics ; 300Hz panel ; Decent webcam

Display should be brighter and more colorful ; Unsatisfying typing experience ; Mediocre speakers ; Expensive

The MSI GE66 Raider Dragonshield features an unrivaled design and excellent performance, but stumbles a bit on the display.

Stellar graphics and overall performance ; Solid battery life ; Blazing fast SSD ; Excellent webcam

MSI GE66 Raider (Intel Core i7, NVIDIA RTX 3070) Review: A No Nonsense Gaming Laptop - MySmartPrice

 

The MSI GE66 Raider was one of the earliest laptops with Intel's H45 processors and we finally got a chance to test it out. Here's our review

Requires 15A socket for charging ; Stiff trackpad ; Cluttered Arrow keys cluster ; Saturated display

Leaving aside the charging conundrum, the MSI GE66 Raider is actually a fantastic laptop for gaming. It’s built from the ground up to deliver top-end gaming performance under Rs 2 lakhs. The Core i7 combined with the RTX 3070 is good enough to run the...

MSI GE66 Raider Review — When You Can’t Scream “Gamer” Any Louder

 

We take a look at MSI's latest gaming laptop in this MSI GE66 Raider review. Find out what we have to say about it right here.

+ Stunning looks ; + Powerful Intel Core i9-10980HK and RTX 2070 SUPER combo ; + Display is more than enough with the 240Hz refresh rate ; + Per-key RGB keyboard ; + Ports are more than sufficient

- Speakers lacks bass ; - Thermals could be better ; - Pricey ; - Secondary storage in the form of HDD would be nice

It is not a cheap gaming laptop, but you are getting what you pay for. A powerful machine that comes with the looks.
