Enjoy high performance gaming with the MSI GE66 Raider 10SFS laptop! Designed with gamers in mind, this MSI laptop boasts a modern, sleek design. With its gamer design, high-performance components and Full HD 300 Hz screen, it offers a high level of gaming comfort.
The MSI GE66 Raider 10SFS-209FR laptop delivers excellent performance thanks to its Intel Core i9-10980HK processor, 16 GB of DDR4 memory, 1 TB PCIe M.2 SSD and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER graphics chipset.
10th Generation Intel Core i9 Processor
The 10th generation Intel Core processors offer a 15% performance improvement over the previous generation, including an increased single-core frequency for a smooth gaming experience.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER
This high-performance gaming notebook features an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 20 series graphics chip, which is based on the NVIDIA Turing GPU architecture and the revolutionary performance of the RTX platform. With RTX technology, you're guaranteed an incredible gaming experience on a laptop, including the power of real-time ray tracing, artificial intelligence, and programmable shading. Ray tracing simulates the physical behaviour of light to deliver unprecedentedly beautiful real-time cinematic rendering, even in the most intense games. Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) is a new RTX technology that harnesses the unparalleled power of Deep Learning and artificial intelligence to display stunning, ultra-sharp images up to 2 times faster than previous generation GPUs with traditional anti-aliasing techniques.
300Hz screen with ultra-thin bezel
With screen borders of only 5mm on the sides, the MSI GE66 Raider ensures you get the most out of your games. What's more, its chassis is more compact than a standard 15-inch laptop. Furthermore, the screen of this MSI Gamer laptop offers a 300 Hz refresh rate to ensure smooth and detailed images during your gaming session. Its IPS panel also offers superb colour with wide viewing angles, so colours remain consistent from all angles.
Keyboard with independent RGB backlighting
The GE66 Raider lets you really show your personality. That's because it features Mystic Light technology, which here has the new Aurora panoramic backlighting feature, with the added bonus of an RGB LED bar running the length of its front chassis. You can choose from 16.8 million colour shades to decorate your GE66 Raider the way it should be and never go unnoticed!
Powerful cooling
With the Cooler Boost 5 system, both the CPU and the GPU have dedicated cooling solutions. The 2 fans and large heatpipes ensure good heat circulation and a good gaming experience even at the most extreme moments.
Duo Wave speakers
For total immersion, sound is important. To meet this need, the new MSI notebooks are equipped with the Dynaudio system and in particular Duo Wave speakers that ensure you feel the warmth of the sound thanks to deep bass, perfectly controlled mids and smooth octaves.

Excellent product, very well aesthetically as well as performance wise.
It is very well suited for both gaming and office use.
It's a great product for gaming and office use, but you have to leave it plugged in or the battery won't last for 2 hours and a half.

Nice machine but software to review
I read and viewed just about everything about this machine before buying it. I have read and viewed just about everything about this machine before I bought it, and a professional's opinion often differs from that of a private user:
This is not a beautiful PC, however, although it is all plastic it feels solid and the finish is good.
The video quality is amazing. With such a graphics card it's probably normal but the rendering in games and youtube videos is impressive.
The i9 is amazingly efficient. You can run netflix, youtube and elderscroll at the same time without any problem. So for office multitasking it's a bomb.
So what about the major flaw, which is the noise. Set to ultimate perf, it does make noise, yes, but comments like "even with a headset, the noise is still noticeable" or "apologize to everyone within 10 meters" are very exaggerated. I have an alienware aw988 headset and I can't hear anything in games. It is possible to make 5 different settings for cooling on the other 4 the pc is completely silent.
I find the touchpad nice and very precise.
So for all that is harware, it is at the top. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use the same software as the others, but it's a good idea to use the same software as the others. It crashes 1 time out of 3. If you change gaming mode often it can be a pain. Sometimes the keyboard light disappears and comes back 2 minutes later. Some utilities, fortunately accessories, like mystic lights, refuse to install and even MSI support did not find a solution for me. The different settings require 3 applications. The "dragon center" does not centralize everything...
Finally, the battery life. I confirm what we can read here and there: about 3 hours for a greedy game, 4h30 for films and videos and max 7 hours, maybe 8 for office work.
In conclusion I am still very satisfied with this machine. I hope to have been useful.
