2020 Model MSI GS66 Stealth 👌
Matthew Moniz msi
I'm looking for the gs66 2060 but it's literally sold out everywhere
Can u compare MSI gs66 with Acer Triton 500 . Because they are pretty much same last year and this year they seem same as well but I need to pick one among them .
The most confusing comparison I've seen. Talking about "this one" or "that one" whilst neither is on screen and "The blade is far quieter than the Gs66, the blade kicks up to 60db"- contradicts what's on screen. None the wiser.
"and both of these laptops are under 5 pounds"
me a Scottish person: wow thats cheap.
More like: shut up and take my pounds!

Only 4 people watching 😂
When i hear he say that, im immediately looking for this comment
*walks away nervously*
1:10 The ability to go beyond like the MSI is helpful when you put the laptop on a stand. This allows to further increase the incline level on the stand and reach a higher altitude for the screen, so you don't have to look down while you use the laptop.
It's also useful when your'e working with a external screen and you want to switch off the laptop's screen and just use its keyboard. That way you don't hide part of the screen, with the laptop.
I've been waiting for this forever!!!
Hope it helps!
Me tooo!!!! I think it was more than two people🤣
Man, I didn't realize that such a minor difference in nits would actually be that noticeable. Good video. I have a razer advanced nice (1060 maxq) but seriously considering the gs66 now as it's time for an update.
"Now if you watch my videos, the 4 of you..""
*LMAO*
For those looking at both, some extra information to note:
GS66 300Hz panel only natively supports 60Hz or 300Hz. Really wish there was an option for 144 for battery saving.
Not sure about the Razer.
The GS66 Ethernet Jack is 10/100/1000/2500 2.5Gbps
The B15A has a UHS-3 SD slot
The GS66 can undervolt via BIOS.
Both laptops use PCIe 3.0 x16 with the new Super variants
Upgradable/open M.2 NVMe slot on the GS66.
The GS66 ships with DDR4 2666 ):
The B15A ships with DDR4 3000
The GS66 has a more aggressive CPU turbo/TDP ~10% faster
The B15A can be set to a more aggressive GPU turbo/TDP ~? faster
The GS66 prefers active cooling even on (battery)
The B15A prefers passive cooling on (battery)
The GS66 fans are aggressive when plugged in, but reserved on battery
The B15A is always more reserved
GS66 has better GPU thermals
B15A has better CPU thermals
Hope this helps! I ended up picking the GS66, simply because I wanted the option to upgrade storage in the future.

Wait what?

Razer for build quality and speakers, msi for slightly better performance and to save a few $100
You are saving $350 by choosing MSI and also getting a bigger battery and double the ram
His model costs $2249
The $2549 comes with a core i9 and 1tb ssd
In Germany and probably in all of Europe the prices are completely different.
With the exact same configuration like he has, the Blade here costs 3380€ and the stealth costs 2080€
Thats 1300€ or 1470$ difference
Divyesh Sinha Tbh if you’re gonna go with Razer you’d have to get the higher speced versions cuz $1800 for a laptop with an rtx 2060 imo is just overpriced.
@@arcticfrost745 exactly
Just look at the gs66
The rtx 2080 super starts at $2699 vs $2999 in razer
So pure gamers who doesn't want 8 cores can enjoy the performance
@@Divyesh_Sinha Pure gamers buy PC
4:29 It would be nice to see what laptop you are pointing / referring to instead of using "this", "this guy" and "this one"
The prices here in Germany are completely different.
The Blade in this configuration costs 3380€
And the MSI in this configuration costs only 2080€
Thats a 1300€ difference! (1470 $)
But you also "only" get a 240hz display here... not a 300hz. (maybe the same thing as with Samsung phone processors)
Usually that difference in frame rate is not noticeable. However, there might be other differences in the monitor besides frame rate such as color accuracy or delay. Razer usually has some of the best monitors in the market, so if you care about that then the price might be worth the difference.
@@vsqs-gtawindowsanddoorsrep672 Same in my country. Cost difference is enough to travel to US and then get it
servus, i got a zephyrus m15 2019 version for 1500€ :)
its just not worth it to spend your kidney for few extra fps that makes no difference in the smoothness of 1080p gaming :)
much better than an msi in terms of build quality imo.
@@prisai03 it a laptop.. they had new one all the time.. i buy new one every year when i had left over cash... with RTX3080 coming mean i won't get new laptop for at least 3 yers... had RTX2080.. i am good for next 5 years.. i suggest get one that had port for 2 adapter..

Your videos are always so perfect. Precise detailing and no bs stuff. Thanks for remaining informative and minimal, love you mate!
Thanks Rahul I appreciate it!! ❤️
Exactly the video I wanted to see! I had a problem with the GS66 thermals reaching high temps and the loud fan noise. Thanks and Great content.
So which will you recommend more? Msi or razer?
Thanks for another awesome comparison Matt!
Also, I think the 180deg lid allows the user to stand the laptop up vertically so the screen is then eye level and the user doesn't have to look down to see the screen. I think that viewing mode is used usually with a 2nd monitor and an external mouse and keyboard~
When you are lying on the bed that 180 degree screen opening helps a lot.
Sagar Nautiyal how? I don't think it helps when you are laying on the bed
@@ennyu8360 It helps. Try it and you'll know. By lying I didn't mean lying flat on the bed. I meant when you are on the bed with your back resting on the wall or some support (90° to 140°) and your knees/legs are folded (like delta symbol). If the screen doesn't go flat or ≥160° mark then the screen's top edge will be on your face instead of direct view of the screen. I am an engineer, works ~8hours a day on laptop. My work laptop (Dell latitude) can do ~185° (goes totally flat or bit beyond), my Lenovo yoga can do even 360° (although it's a pos laptop, regret buying it) & my hp pavilion also goes ~165° angle. This helps a lot!
Maybe someone else can explain it better.
Sagar Nautiyal i agree! 😊
How do you get anything done in bed? I fall asleep within 10 minutes.

THANK YOU sooooooo much. I was waiting for this review
Happy to help!
Matthew Moniz you are just too kind
I bought the Razer Blade with 2080 super, still waiting for this beast to be deliverd 😍
My gf and I each bought one. It's sick.. The build quality is amazing as well.. love it.. Will be using it for the next 6 years hopefully =D haha
I bought the same one and it’s awesome.
May I have some money
maw wow enjoy guys!
I bought a Razer Blade 2070 maxq last October. Trust me, you won’t get disappointed 😎
Mathew Moniz: "Which one would you choose?"
Me: Well I would ch----

Me: If i could ch-
Wallet: You're broke, stfu and stop looking at me
I could afford it but I feel like as soon as I buy it there will be a newer badass version on the market
@@CornDawgOG You should buy it cause laptop manufacturers rarly change anything when releasing newer versions of thier laptops. Razer fixed the shift key and slightly increased the specs while omen just redesigned thier laptop so dont worry about it and go for it m8! But I do need to say that they do change laptops every once in a while but if you keep waiting you'll never buy a laptop so why wait?
@@CornDawgOG Quite😂
I plan on buying the GS66 in the next couple of months as my first gaming PC, i know i can build a better desktop for cheaper or around the same price, but i love laptops and need them portable. Probably going to get the variant with 16gb ram, a 512gb ssd, and the rtx 2060 for $1600
that's right, desktop bye~
so how is your msi?
@@prashantranjitkar I built a PC lol. Finished it September 2020, it has a 1660 Super, Ryzen 5 3600, 16 gb of ram, and a 1 TB nvme SSD, all for around $950.
This was exactly what I wanted to see. Great vid!
Glad you liked it!
NO WAY THIS WAS THE EXACT VIDEO I WAS LOOKING FOR A MONTH AGO CAUSE IM STUCK IN BETWEEN THESE TWO LAPTOPS!!! it was a little too late lol
lol nice what did you end up going with?
@@MatthewMoniz I got the razer blade base. The layout on it was my style and I am usually one of those guys who brings a laptop wherever he goes, so I needed a thinner one.
@@MatthewMoniz Another question. Other than these two laptops, is there any other laptops around 2200CAN possibly better. My brother is planning to get another laptop, but he is not very familiar. He wants something very comfortable, fast, chill but cool layout, and a bit of RGB. Pretty much everything everyone looks for in a laptop.
I have been looking for a video like this thank you so much
You’re very welcome!
Thanks a lot Matth. As always, great review💪🏻.
Matthew a suggestion: you should start asking for the base models to review and not the highest specs. After $2000 I think the market gets narrower. There are already excellent devices (even from the same companies you review) in the range of 1.2k which is much more conpetitive and interesting.
I talk about the base model in this video along with showing performance. I also compared base model blade 15 with gtx 1660ti to advance in a separate video!
Just got my Razer Blade 15 in the mail on Tuesday. It’s everything I’ve ever wanted in a laptop. I chose the basic model with the rtx 2060 because $200 in savings over advanced with 2070 seemed the logical choice. I get slightly less FPS (10ish frames difference and no card reader but I saved $200 and it has an Ethernet port (advanced doesn’t have one)). I’m getting 100 to upper 200 FPS on AAA games on high settings. I honestly thought the screen would be mediocre but it turned out to be my favorite feature (144 non touch). It’s a dream to look at... overall couldn’t be happier with the RB15 2020.
Edit: My price before taxes was 1800.
Also, this is not my primary computer. I have a custom rtx 2080ti, CPU Intel i9-9900K build. I wanted something portable for the road which is why I bought the RB15.
Hello, can I ask you how's the Blade 15 holding up? I'm really considering getting your exact specs since it seems the best option for me.
Khalid Albaqami No problem, I use it 10-20 hours a week and the performance seems to be the same today as when I first used it. I bought it for gaming and it absolutely does not disappoint. I’m still getting 100+ frames on Warzone with high settings.
I was considering buying a Blade 15, but I've always read troubling reports about Razer's QC failings. So many posts about battery bulge and multiple RMAs on the Razer subreddit. Still, the design looks very nice.
That was a straight up no bias review. Thank you for the well done video.
You're very welcome!
The only reason I would pick the Razer is because of the Delete Key placement.
But the 99W battery on the MSI is also sweat.
If I was rich I would have a dilemma 😅
A fucking delete key...
Uh, if you were rich you could just get both, OR order a custom design,
Dilemmas are for the non-rich like the rest of us
@@agps4418 Haha
Great comparison. I love the build quality of the razer. I never really considered a msi laptop. Great video!
but they it will die 1 to 3......so dont buy a gaming laptop buy a gaming pc
I believe MSI provides the best cooling solutions for laptops
I have a pc that I built. But that’s awesome the have great cooling. The need to share it with Dell
My msi crapped out on me after a year
Nash Mundondo What model did you have?
'WHY would you want to use your display at 180 degrees beats me'
great comparison, thanks for this. currently have RB15 Adv 2018
Thank you so much! This was the perfect video for those of us looking at the 2 best blacked out thin and light laptops in 2020!
Thanks for the vid! I ordered my MSI GS66 yesterday and I was really in a battle between the Razer blade 15 base model, but I think I made the right choice with the GS66.
Hope you enjoy it!
Where did you order it? The 2060 model is out of stock everywhere I've looked.
I got the MSI too you won’t be disappointed it has a VERY solid build quality and it’s definitely worth it for the money. I considered the Razer but in my opinion it’s overpriced.
@@russiandan I bought mine on Newegg last week
@@arcticfrost745 Agreed that the Razer is pretty over priced but if it's on sale, I'd take it over the GS66
If only all reviews were like this, concise and simple to follow 👍
Thanks Shah!
Hey man! I really love your content. Can you please do a comparison between the new Blade 15 and the new XPS 15? Would be great if you could do a full review on the XPS 15 as well! Cheers! Keep safe!!
Coming soon!
I have a razer 15 advance model and love it. Although I can agree they are over priced but it does run smooth all the time and never really gets too hot and kills all the games I play
can you update on this? i’ve heard all sorts of things about razer laptops either breaking, getting too hot, or having super loud fans
@@sadliminals3429 loud fans are actually normal however, there must be a loudness limit. Fans ARE NOT supposed to be loud while doing light browsing such as watching UA-cam etc. Gaming with Loud fans are normal but there is a limit to the loud. Getting hot is another thing that I agree on, but you must check on the source of why it's hot. I run my blade 15 on max GPU and CPU and I can say it's firing hot. Doing light things such as writing an email or browsing should not be hot if so, that means the battery is used up to limits or just starting to bloat. Honestly I do not recommend getting a blade 15 if you are scared of their durability because claiming a warranty can be super difficult if your state do not receive them. It might take weeks for RMA approval, Weeks to ship it over and weeks to ship it back. Damages cause while shipping can also be caused due to long distance travelling(change in drastic temperature etc). My best advice is to get something that u can easily fix nearby you or something not too expensive so that u can get easy replacement.
The video I've been looking 2 weeks for
Great vids my dude
Hope you enjoyed it!
@@MatthewMoniz what do you think? Msi gs66 2060 or the more expensive razor 15 base 1660ti?
Really really good review, need more of those :) Can’t wait for a review on the 10th gen Ge75 Raider. And one last thing. Is it me or they just don’t make laptops as much as “quality-built” as in the past ?
Just stumbled upon your channel, great review - I'm subscribing :)
Really good comparison you made there. I hope your channel will receive more views in the future. Keep up with the good work.
Thank you !!! I appreciate it
I am waiting for the Asus Rog S15 review
-Nvidia optimist with variable refresh rate
-Pre applied liquid thermal paste
-115w rtx 2070/2080 super vs 80/90w on others
-3200mhz ram
-1tb SSD in raid 0 config
-better speakers
and no spare part...when anything broke with warrenty i would just go with razer... since they made the same OEM part for forever... while asus keep changing their shit every few months...
campkira but what if the quality in the Razer part is poor. Meanwhile msi see that the part needs improving and refreshing?
The 180 degree hinge in my mind is a durability advantage if a kid or some I was to grab your screen and pull it, instead of straining the hinge it opens further. Just a thought
Please review the Legion 7. Should be interesting to see how it fares against these machines
Legion 7 is shit with the hinge. Don't bother
Thermals are a big deal for me .__. My Alienware m15 sits constantly at 85-95c while gaming and occasionally up to 100c. I’d go for the razed because of its better thermals and definitely more longevity :3
Zach Shapiro yeah unfortunately dell not what it used to be.... I’m playing on a Asus Zephyrus gx701 metro exodus cpu around 88c and gpu 75c!
Great vid as always. Now hit us with the alienware m15 r3 review. I wanna see what that vapor chamber does for the 10th gen 6-core!
I got mine like 5 days ago aw m17 r3 i7 10th 1660ti 144hz gsync. I was surprised with the thermals. on idle I get 40-55c on full load 50-65c and that's it. I mostly play league of legends I get 240fps uncapped max settings. the screen is so much better than my aw 17 r4(2017) even though that one got 1440p 120hz gsync this new one is noticeable better even with lower specs, this goes with its speakers as well, not as good as the one on macbook pro though. the fans are very quiet as well. I was able to undervolt it -0.0120 but the thermals are so good that it's just like a bonus to decrease the numbers a little lower. the laptop is also freaking thin like thin af for a 17", the footprint is only as big as the usual 15 laptops so I don't really feel like carrying a 17' laptop. the weight is there but it's not that heavy. all in all I was very impressed. the only thing that concerns me is the hinge. I hear little clicks of plastic or screws. it's very minimal that my sister wasnt able to hear it when I was showing it to her so you will need to be in a very quiet room but after noticing it I cant help but being bothered by it more than it should and this is a $2k laptop so I don't think this is acceptable. I will return it and opt for an m15 with same specs since the bezels are slimmer now and because the thermals are otherworldly and it performs more than expected. just wanna share my thoughts so here you go :)
Picked up a GS65 (not GS66) last year and love it. 9th gen i7, GTX 1660ti, 144hz display, thunderbolt 3. Great machine!
Thank you! I can now decide which one i gonna buy in my dreams ! 👌🏻
Great review ! If you need that 180 degree feature, you're only gonna get it with the gs66 lol
I got the gs66 i9 2070 super max q, this thing is a beast, ultra settings in warzone and I'm around 170 fps
damn is it not getting loud the fan?
Errol Delos Santos I would say it’s medium sound wise, at least the heat is under control compared to the Garbo razor
I'd go with the GS66 on account of being able to replace more parts. Nothing is worse than finding out that your failing RAM can't be switched out because it's soldered to the motherboard.
Why did i just watch this i can afford neither
With that mentality you will never
As a videographer, the Razer Blade better speakers and overall appearance is very attractive for quick presentations with a client. But the much smaller included SSD, the lack of a 2nd NVME drive and of an ethernet port is a bummer. Also the higher price tag of the Blade would mean less new video equipment this year.
Just ordered GS66, cannot wait!
how is your msi?
I wanted this video so much! Thanks
I totally needed this video. Thank you
Yaayyy I looking for this review for so loooonggg 👍
Great video, for that one person living in Europe, this MSI is crazy expensive over here and just does not make sense even compared to Razer pricing.
There's a lot of us that live in Europe and watch tech review videos... Just sayin' we have a lot more people than North America...
1:14 When the screen is fully tilted back it is easier to clean the screen
This is a good point
You can also use it in bed with your knees up.
I was on the edge between these two laptops. At first, I was going with the Blade. Few days later, I decided that GS66 was a slightly better pick for me. They’re both fantastic laptops, but I prefer the MSI more.
how is your msi going?
Yeah, like Prashant said, How is your Msi going?
I've already picked MSI GS66 and I am having fun with it.. My only complaint with the device is the very bad speakers ... Its been more than a month now and I still get annoyed sometimes from these speakers! :/
Did you try the following fix? :
www.reddit.com/r/MSILaptops/comments/gpvhl9/i_made_filter_for_flattest_frequency_response_for/
its not the audio card's problem its the speakers. Get a pair of nice headphones
Thanks for the comparison!
I was wondering which to choose over msi GS66 with a GTX2070 or Razer base model with GTX2060, both in the same price (1799$). I just ended up ordering the Blade 15 over the msi GS66 based on this review. I think its better to sacrifice a little bit of performance over build quality as I will be using it more on productivity than gaming (which consumes the processor more than the graphic card).
However, great review and thanks for this Matthew, really helped!
Great comparison! Really clears things up for me :D
I think the display going back all the way kind of helps with when you accidentally push it too far. So it's accident-proof in a way
Honestly, I think the real reason it extends 180* is because its the same chassis as the MSI Creator lineup, which also extends 180* and has built in software to flip the display for presentation mode.

When the GE66 comes out can you compare it to the GS66?
Everything that is stated in this comparison is true. 100%.
I was about to buy the Razer 15A, but they rejected my debit card for some reason... And for THAT reason ALONE! I went out and bought a GS66. I've had it for 2 weeks and I have to say, best decision ever! Mine is spec'd with a 2080 Super MaxQ, 32GB of RAM and the i7. It plays everything flawlessly. It does everything else flawlessly.
I would love to fill the empty storage slot with a 1TB SSD to throw games on. But I have no idea which one to buy to fill the bay. Anyone want to point me in the right direction?
Great review here. I know 15 inch thin and light gaming laptops are much more popular than 17 inch gaming laptops, but with regards to fan noise, do you know if the Razer Blade Pro 17 runs quieter with the same level of cooler because of the bigger frame?
great video. I am waiting for a comparison between MSI gs 66 and Lenovo legion 7i.
I really need the 180° feature nice to include that
Only issues with Razer laptops are people complaining of bad customer support, expanded batteries after a year to two years of use and random sudden death of laptops after 2-3 years. I was considering the Razer choice but changed my mind after reading about these issues.
I have the 2020 razer blade 15 advanced model myself and I am astonished by how quite it is when it runs on battery. Super balanced laptop for both office working and gaming!
What games do you play on it
I have a weird idea about how to use the 180° display, put the bottom half of the laptop on a adjustable stand like the omoton one while the display is flipped 180° this will elevate the monitor to a good height while working at a desk, although you may have to disable the trackpad. Another good thing about this orientation is that the front firing speakers of the GS66 will be pointed directly towards you and the thermals would be good too as the bottom of the laptop and the vent won't be covered. It's a weird idea but it may be practical for those who don't have budget for a monitor or space for one (like if they live in a small appartment with a folding desk) and still want to work at their desk comfortably. You'd need to buy a keyboard and mouse tho. Another advantage of this method is the webcam will be at eye level for video conferencing.
I really want to see this review even if i cant buy either of those two. Love it!
Can you do a video on gaming laptops for students?
