The new born baby, the big brother in gaming industry, this is what I describe for my new toy. Everytime when big game title comes, there will always bring a trend that ppl will upgrade their own gaming gear to pursuit the extreme in game graphics qualities. Personally sometimes I will play console games in XBOX, but I still think the gaming notebook can fit my style that can work and play at the same time.

Before I purchase GE62, I did a lot of comparison from the web site and check in the physical store. Just to share with everyone who are also interested in this products and save the time to study the products again.
MSI GS60 Ghost Pro,
Pros:
l  The slimmest and lightest 15.5? gaming notebook,
l  only 1.96kg but can go up to NVidia GTX970M graphics
l  3 SSD for main hard drive, can boost up OS in seconds
Cons:
l  kind of expensive
l  not sure for the battery life

MSI GE62 Apache,
Pros:
l  whole new chassis design compare to last gen GE60, with two dual fans,
l  NVidia GTX 965M, performance is already in the mid-high end range,
l  3 SSD for main hard drive, can boost up OS in seconds
l  Dedicated heat pipes for both GPU and CPU
Cons:
l  Weight 2.4kg, after putting in the backpack for whole day traveling, you will still find out the small weight difference will make difference.
l  Finger prints on A cover and c side will not be remove easily

ASUS G551, 
l  Quality product design and stylish design by ROG,
l  Affordable price
Cons,
l  Using Only 2 pipes and 1 single fan for NVidia GTX960M might cause lower the cpu/gpu frequency and lower the performance in gaming
l  1SSD + 1HDD only

l  2.6KG, kind of heavy already

New baby just arrive in my place


Beat it? no idea what that it, but I do know the Fnatic is a quite good performance gaming team from Europe .


I think this is the prettiest angel of GE62, the metal brush lines and the muscle curve line ID design


The Dragon logo for MSI now = Gaming. And gaming looks like is the first priority now in the market, from the entry level GP series to the extreme level GT series. Gamers will be more easily and clear to choose the gears based on their needs for the hardware skus and budget.

slot for a Kensington lock, Gigabit Ethernet, USB 3.0, HDMI, Mini Display port, 2x USB 3.0, microphone input, headphone jack


Blu-Ray burner, USB 2.0, SD card reader, power supply


Buttons from left to right, cooler boost button to speed up the fan speed for cooling the cpu/gpu temperature , steelseries engine button, and power button.


When turn on the power, that you will see this excellent backlight keyboard design that can customize the color of the lights. As the keyboard is design by the biggest gaming accessories gaming brand, Steelseries, combine SSE engine software, user can event customize personal combo keys for the special attacks. I choose the one with 3SSD and 1HDD, which makes me has the performance for the SSD speed benefit and the big data storage capacity at the same time.


compare the product height with the iphone4S, then you will know how thin it is.


Just install the GTA5, i trun a lots of settings on high, average FPS can go up 30+ fps, still need to try few rounds and see whether im making the right choice or not, but at least so far im quite glad i purchase GE62 instead of G551.

I've been thinking to get one GS machine for a while but I still be held back because of my budget limitation.

MSI has the best looking computers IMO, they've spent some serious time on their design and features.  Congrats on getting a top of the line laptop!
