Looking for additional specs on an Amazon MSI Pulse GL66 Deal

[scott.collin156c02db]

I am very much interested in buying a MSI Pulse GL66 12UGK-470CA 15.6" laptop listed on Amazon at the link below, but I would first like a bit more info than is provided.

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0BDCPPFVM/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB&psc=1

Can someone please specify the Processor clock speed & boost?

There is no information pertaining to the power supply (how many watts for example) I read reviews on similar version laptops also sold on Amazon which stated the GPU is only 85W, not 125. Similarly, there wasn't enough watts for the CPU to achieve it's full potential. Can someone confirm or deny this?

I don't want to order this laptop only to have to return it because I can't run the processor & GPU at their maximum potential.

Thanks!

Scott

It's 105 W
For your budget I would recommend GP66, lower CPU with I7 but HX performance will not be worth than I9 H, RTX 3070Ti Max GPU power to 150W , Max. 205W CPU-GPU Power

Thanks for your recommendation. However, that deal isn't available in Canada. If it were, US to Cad converts to more than $2700 which is way above my budgeted $2000.

Furthermore, I have seen those specs before for the Pulse GL66 directly on MSI. However, I believe that the MSI Laptops being sold on Amazon are not following the same specs as listed by MSI. I'm guessing amazon are changing components to make them cheaper to manufacture & to look (falsely) like a great deal. This is what I'm hoping someone else can confirm. Particularly maybe someone who's purchased an MSI Laptop from Amazon.

I purchased my GP66 12UGS on special on newegg.ca for $2000 with a price match, because it was also on special @ memoryexpress.ca and staples.ca.
The GL66 comes with a 240W power supply, the GP66 comes with a 280W supply, easy to make the math for the one you can use at full potential.
As in the links that random user provided you, the 240W power supply are for the 3070 and 3060, the 3050Ti and 3050 use 180W.
If video outputs and ports are important for you, I suggest you look at the link below.
Good luck in whatever choice you make!
