MSI Answers Portable Gaming Prayers with GS70 : Max Borges Agency

Found a site with gallery showing more views of the product. The logo on the lid lights up, wasn't expecting that (it takes away a bit of the stealthy feel though in my opinion). Still, overall I forsee this thing is going to steal a lot of potential razer blade buyers

I'm hoping this raises the bar for the high performance laptop manufacturers to improve build quality with things like aluminium chassis (so far it looks like only Ultrabooks have made this a norm).

Usually, higher end laptops have cover and palm rest in aluminium. Base will typically be plastic and good reason to be so as well. My experience with a full aluminium MacBook Pro back then, under load, the base can get really hot, even Macs usually have modest specs. Don't get me wrong bro, but I hate plastic, but I think if its gonna be aluminium, there there has to be some kindda protection against the heat conducted to it, especially under load.

Got this yesterday... thumbs up to Jiehao for his excellent help and service. Laptop ran surprisingly cool during cpu stress test despite a modest overclock. Tried the Razer 17" as well but I think this is a lot better value for money.

Got my GS70 today! I was the first preorder so I got serial number 1 :)
Very happy with my buy and the service was great. Appreciate it!
I was worried about the fan noise but it is surprisingly quiet and very cool to the touch, even on hours of gaming

Was looking for the 128Gb initially. But got the 256Gb instead. Never mind loving the extra speed. :)
