Laptop is great and can handle anything however it does have quite a bit of problems with overheating. Im using it for aprox. half a year and i had to turn off the turbo boost which created the overheating problems. I plan to repaste it completely next month and see if it makes a difference.
Can you please let me know how your experience has been with this laptop? I was planning to buy it, mainly due to the price point. Other laptops with the same config are all over 3000$. From some of the comments I read from another UA-cam channel who reviewed this laptop (the version with 13950hx and not 12900) it seems people aren't happy with it mainly due to the loud fan noise and other issues. I have also read somewhere that the screen of this laptop isn't great either, with poor colour reproduction, making colours look unsaturated or washed out. So, now I am skeptical about buying this laptop. But again at this point, I can't afford to buy anything for over 3000$.

Nice review!
personally, i would vote for MSI ones since 4080 is much much more powerful than 4070, and the i9 12th i7 13th is not too many difference i know the i7 13th is obviously better but the difference is not that much.
I picked one of these up myself but after testing, it went straight back. I also noticed even with tweaking settings and the temperature under control that the gpu would never pull anywhere near the rated 175 watts msi has on their website....which drives me crazy. With the cooling this machine has it should be able to comfortably hit 175 on the gpu and 55 watts on the cpu. Seems like ether msi is lying, or they have done something funky with the power delivery in this machine. I know it can perform better than it is, but with the underwhelming power draw Its a no go for me.
thats the case with any gpu though. Rated 140tdp on omen also pulls on average roughly 95ish watt. In fact, when watching reviews of various producers I always noticed that gpu's never get anywhere close their maximum rated tdp

No one buy this laptop unless you play with headphones on. The second the CPU or GPU reaches 75C fan speeds jump to 100% and there's no way to disable that behavior. The only "solution" is to play on low graphics, cap fps to 30-60 and limit the GPU and CPU clock speeds as much as possible. Thank you 1gb bloated MSI software that doesn't even do its job.
Honestly fuck hogwarts legacy for its shit optimization. Never support a company that doesn’t bother to optimize their games. 200 fps on cyberpunk and barely able to hold 90 in hogwarts is so pathetic. This game and Jedi survivor deserve to be in the hall of shame for how shitty they were optimized.
Hope to buy a gaming laptop next year, looking for a 12gb Graphic card, RTX 4080 sounds cool, I9 processor and a 32gb DDR 5 memory card 5600mhz. but it will have to wait this MSI is just the thing that would do the thing. .

MSI Vector GP68 HX 12VH-016 - 4080 12 gb,(175 watt) intel core i9-12900HX (16 cores 24 threads max 5Ghz) 16 GB RAM, 1TB SSD - 2399 eur price
choose what you think is best, thanks in advance for the answer
P.S.
Nice review!
personally, i would vote for MSI ones since 4080 is much much more powerful than 4070, and the i9 12th i7 13th is not too many difference i know the i7 13th is obviously better but the difference is not that much.
@@linrussell7102i7 13th is not better than i9 12th. Take a look at benchmarks
Hi, is that pc IPS panel or not ?
Im getting my first laptop with a discrete gpu, im thinking about chosing this one, however i was wondering what the ram speed was
IN THE CASE OF COOLING, AS LONG AS IT HAS COPPER TUBES, WILL THE NEW LIQUID COOLING OF THE NEW LAPTOPS BE SUPERIOR?🤔
I picked one of these up myself but after testing, it went straight back. I also noticed even with tweaking settings and the temperature under control that the gpu would never pull anywhere near the rated 175 watts msi has on their website....which drives me crazy. With the cooling this machine has it should be able to comfortably hit 175 on the gpu and 55 watts on the cpu.
Seems like ether msi is lying, or they have done something funky with the power delivery in this machine. I know it can perform better than it is, but with the underwhelming power draw Its a no go for me.
thats the case with any gpu though. Rated 140tdp on omen also pulls on average roughly 95ish watt. In fact, when watching reviews of various producers I always noticed that gpu's never get anywhere close their maximum rated tdp
165W with Dynamic Boost.
aint that a good thing lol
Jarrod tech managed to get his to 140 watts but if both cpu and gpu where being heavily used he noted that that decreased.
Guyz I need your help
What do I choose either this MSI gp68hx rtx 4080 i9 13gen laptop costs 2000 USD
Or
Asus zephyrus m16 rtx 4070 laptop it's on sale for 1600 USD
Or
Alienware m16 rtx 4080 laptop that costs 2200 usd on sale
Classic good cpu/gpu with a "display" "keyboard" and"trackpad". Just like the early 2000's
Excellent review ❤❤❤
I saw a certain GP68 on MSI site saying it has a 4090 and 12900hx unfortunately didn't see it on sale, you think they discontinued it?
Is that Blade 16 or 18 beside?
18
Just bought this laptop, set it up but won’t install mystic light app. It’s saying install failed???
Did you run in any problems with this?
You use sfeelseries gg app to control the lights.
Did you already test it with Starfield?
I tested the MSI GE78 in recent livestreams, similar chassis with same GPU.
@@GizmoSlipTech and how many fps you got?

Will be a 17 inch display version? Like the past
It's called MSI GP78 Vector, and it's +2000€ compared to GP68. Crazy pricing...
Is true that NVMe PCIe Gen5 is avaliable in Intel i9 version? (Vector GP68HX 13VH-098US)
Not sure. Check MSI product pages and specs
GizmoSlipTech.. QUESTIONS
1. Would having an external monitor with better color and brightness and resolution be a good idea?
2. If upgrading the RAM what is the max speed for this laptop and do you recommend a brand?
3. Does a display cable work with this laptop??
1. Yea, if you want a better quality display and mainly game at home.
2. I would have to check.
3. Display port 1.4 is supposed through the usb-c ports.
@@GizmoSlipTech alright ONE last question
Well I've noticed The laptop has HDMI 2.1 correct? so would a 2.1 HDMI monitor be better than using a monitor that has a display port 1.4 ?
Since The HDMI 2.1 has more bandwidth than a 1.4 display port just trying to figure out which one would i benefit from for more visible FPS and picture quality
Displayport 1.4 and HDMI 2.1 are high quality display outs, though HDMI 2.1 is slightly higher spec
@@GizmoSlipTech ahh ya figure, still can't figure out what's the max RAM speed for the laptop only thing I saw is 4800mhz though I thought it could have the ability to do 5200mhz
But I don't know i couldn't find any info
@@TheChillDeadpoolsame here, all i can see is 4800mhz
Umm, did 16GB is enough or should i buy the one with 32GB version?
AAA game in this review eat up to 15GB ram
Good thanks for making this movie
lol, movie
would laptop with rtx 4080 last for atleast 5 years for gaming?.,thinking of buying a high end laptop instead of building a pc since i’m always travelling,.
I had to make the same choice, I had a rtx 3080 (130w) Laptop from Asus and now ordered this one on prime day , with the i9 12900hx and the rtx 4080
You have just convinced me to get this laptop. The only difference is the CPU for the one I found in my country is 12900HX but for the same price! Looking forward to getting this baby
Please let us know how is going so far
shaaaaree your experience my man
With the exact same CPU, GPU, RAM, SSD and screen, between the Vector68 and the Raider68, which one is better?
Does this have G-sync?
No
Should i go with Legion 7i pro 13900hx + 4070
Or this but minus 12900hx + rtx 4080 ?
The 4080 is much more powerful than 4070.
4080 obviously.Gaming players don‘t need such a powerful CPU with multi-core performance.
I think i should buy this laptop. My electrical bill rises up since im using 4070ti. Thats really annoying.. Guess ill downgrade to this laptop!
Lenovo legion slim 7i next!
In Europe still expensive I think 😬
Not really there’s way more expensive ones
The fan noise is absurt
buy 1 for me for this money please 🙏
acer nitro 5 4050 for 879 walmart
I bought a month ago a g16
13980hx
Rtx 4070
However the 4070 is a joke…
I saw this msi on sale for £1799
12900hx rtx 4080 and 1080p screen or 1200p not sure
Also Asus rog strix G16
13650hx
Rtx 4080
Not sure which would be better. Any advise?
You seem like a shill trying to push left over models
Doing a fan noise test when speaking🤦♂️
No one buy this laptop unless you play with headphones on. The second the CPU or GPU reaches 75C fan speeds jump to 100% and there's no way to disable that behavior. The only "solution" is to play on low graphics, cap fps to 30-60 and limit the GPU and CPU clock speeds as much as possible.
Thank you 1gb bloated MSI software that doesn't even do its job.
Honestly fuck hogwarts legacy for its shit optimization. Never support a company that doesn’t bother to optimize their games. 200 fps on cyberpunk and barely able to hold 90 in hogwarts is so pathetic. This game and Jedi survivor deserve to be in the hall of shame for how shitty they were optimized.

Unbelievable my ram was 5600 MHz I don’t really understand why was inside 5600mhz ram I upgraded to 32gb 4800 MHz cruicar
Anyone have the i9-13950HX
Version? ...
Yeah me. Why? :)
Hope to buy a gaming laptop next year, looking for a 12gb Graphic card, RTX 4080 sounds cool, I9 processor and a 32gb DDR 5 memory card 5600mhz. but it will have to wait this MSI is just the thing that would do the thing. .
