MSI GV62 7RC

MSI GV62 7RC review: Is an affordable gaming laptop - but is it both cheap and cheerful?

Cheaper than most gaming laptops ; GPU can handle casual gaming and eSports ; Smarter and lighter than rivals

Modest GPU weaker with Triple-A games ; Underwhelming build quality ; Poor screen contrast

The MSI is an affordable gaming laptop built around the Nvidia GeForce MX150. Despite the different nomenclature, it’s from the Pascal range used in other gaming notebooks – including the GTX 1050 inside the Acer.

MSI GV62 7RC review

A cheap, light esports laptop for low-end gaming

Good GPU for esports gaming ; Smart, attractive design ; Cheaper than most rivals

Weaker with Triple-A games ; Poor screen contrast ; Mediocre ergonomics

The MSI GV62 7RC is affordable and has enough power to handle low-end gaming – but it’s hindered by its poor screen and lack of real grunt

MSI GV62 8RE (i5-8300H, GTX 1060, FHD) Laptop Review

New engine, same body. MSI brings Coffee Lake to their entry-level GV62 line. While the new Intel CPU is a breath of fresh air, it is the only real change to the machine since last year. Buggy system behavior and a cheap plastic case keep the GV62 8RE...

excellent SteelSeries keyboard ; good price ; relatively lightweight ; easy maintenance ; good speakers ; reasonably low external temperatures ; wide selection of ports....

...but no Thunderbolt 3 or USB 3.1 Gen 2 ; lid isn't properly set and clicks against chassis ; case is entirely plastic and feels cheap as a result ; lid easily warps ; component temperatures get hot under stress ; gaming performance falls behind other...
