MSI GF65 Review
I don’t intend to belittle the MSI GF65 THIN 9SEXR, but if you check its technical specs, you’ll notice that it uses the same components that have been powering our laptops for over a year—nothing there’s Super, 7nm, or 10th Gen about it. Nonetheless, its debut is part of one of the few exciting advancements in gaming laptops outside AMD’s Ryzen 4000 APUs. Nvidia has stated that its RTX 2060 GPU will be offered in a gaming laptop for less than ($999) £999 with the introduction of its Super GPU silicon for mobile, the RTX 2070 Super and RTX 2080 Super.
It’s fueled by an RTX 2060, which is a step up from the GTX 1660 Ti seen in 2019’s super model. With it arrives not just assurance of a Turing GPU with 6GB of GDDR6 and 1,920 CUDA Cores—along with the additional possibility of portable AI acceleration in advanced techniques and Nvidia’s updated Turing encoder—but also an easier entrance into real-time ray tracing and Nvidia’s AI upscaling technology, DLSS 2.0. At first sight, the GF65’s exterior appears to be quite similar to that of its predecessor. Both have the same ornamental frame, which is 21.7mm thick, and the mostly plastic build leaves a lot to be desired. It’s undeniably huge, especially given that we’ve already seen several really thin gaming laptops this year. However, at 1.86kg, it is lighter than several similar laptops in this price range.
All in all, you can’t go wrong with buying this powerful laptop.
