MSI GE76 Raider review
ultrabookreview.com
  • - 4.25
This top-configuration of the MSI GE76 Raider is the fastest gaming laptop we've tested so far and one of the fastest currently available on the market. Having a 155W 3080 and i9 inside is what's driving the performance, paired with an alright thermal solution, a MUX switch, and a fast display. Throw in the premium design and craftsmanship, good inputs and IO, and the big battery, and this looks like a hard-to-match performance laptop. The devil is in the details, though, and as you'll find out in this review, there are some aspects that you need to carefully consider before jumping on this one.

The MSI GE76 Raider is a traditional big, heavy gaming laptop that’s a solid performer overall with one key advantage: the screaming performance of a GeForce RTX 3080 mobile GPU tuned up to 155 watts. It’s expensive, but it’s worth it.

This gaming laptop behemoth crushes benchmarks – and your wallet

The GE76 Raider is, objectively, the definition of top-of-the-line, eschewing portability and battery life to deliver raw, uncompromising power for a very particular niche. You’d be hard pressed to find more performance in a package you can technically take with you, and when paired with a monitor this machine is a desktop replacement that truly lives up to the name.
