MSI GT72VR 6RE Dominator Pro
We’ve been impressed with this laptop line before and this is a worthy member of the family. We suspect all the bulk and cooling is a bit overkill for this lower-high-end machine but you can’t just drop down to MSI’s Slim range without dramatically losing performance. At $3400 it’s expensive, but significantly more-affordable than its older brother while remaining very fast indeed.

Any gaming notebook featuring an Intel Core i7-7700HQ processor and a full-fat NVIDIA GTX 1070 is going to pack a mighty punch…and in the case of MSI's new GT72VR Kaby Lake refresh, it certainly does. Not only does the new GT72VR 7RE have the above...

In what's a pretty mild refresh, it's plain to see that the real star of it all is the mobile implantation of Pascal. The 1070 that's in notebooks is more than capable, able to run just about any game you can throw at it in 1080p at frame rates that...

The GT72 chassis may be aging, but its hardware and versatility shouldn't be overlooked. Its cooling system can handle GPUs far more power-hungry than the GTX 1060, so the GT72VR 6RD runs cooler and quieter than other gaming systems with the same Pascal...
