    More than Top

    Ordered on Wednesday and arrived on Friday. To be honest, everything was well packaged. The only downside I could mention was the service provider Chronopost, whose driver I had to catch up with to get my order. He didn't even come to my house even though I had a day off. Otherwise to the Top LDLC

    The perfect dream laptop in every respect

    Bought to replace my 17-inch MSI GE76 11UH, this Raider 18 HX is incredible with its ultra-bright 18-inch 4K UHD panel. 2 cm that make all the difference.
    I chose this computer for 2 main reasons: the first concerns the brand's reliability: I've never had a problem with any of the (at least 8) machines I've owned. The second is its features:
    With its 14th-generation Intel core i9 processor, 64GB of DDR5 and its RTX4080 graphics card with 12GB of DDR6, I'm ready for the months and years to come to tackle any task.
    Thanks to its Killer WiFi BE1750x chip, I can achieve a downstream speed of 1900 Mbs/s 15 metres from my Livebox fibre max...
    To sum up, with a weight of 3.6 kg excluding charger, this computer is more transportable than portable, with an incredible look that will satisfy even the most demanding users.
