Product details

The GS65 Stealth Thin sets new standards in mobility and performance: Power users and gamers will find one of the most powerful 15.6" notebooks, stylishly packaged in the extra compact chassis of a 14" model. This is made possible by the extremely narrow screen bezel that surrounds the agile 144 Hz display – a unique innovation in the mobile gaming sector. It’s hard to pack a fully gaming-capable notebook with a large 15.6-inch screen into a more compact form: With a height of less than 18 mm and weighing just 1.8 kg, the GS65 Stealth Thin comfortably accompanies its user throughout the day. Despite the compact aluminum chassis, the new 8th generation Intel Core i7 six-core processor and the fast GeForce GTX 1060 graphics deliver top-tier performance. The PCI-Express SSD ensures rapid system and program launches. The 144 Hz True Color display provides absolutely fluid visuals in games and allows for unrestrained reactions. The SteelSeries gaming keyboard stands out with programmable individual key lighting. Data transfer to external media is achieved via Thunderbolt 3 or USB 3.1 Gen 2 with the highest data rates.

Für den Preis des MSI GS65 8RE-079 bekommen Sie einen in der Summe etwas stärkeren PC und dazu noch ein 600-Euro-Office-Notebook obendrauf...
