After almost 30 years in the background, MSI is now one of the world leaders in electronics
MSI laptops have only made it on the “menu” in the last few years. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. You most likely owned a mother board, a graphics card or a desktop before, without knowing they were manufactured by MSI.
When it comes to laptops, things change very quickly; new advances in chip and graphics technology means that the manufacturer not only has to have the latest models but they have to have the skills to balance them together for maximum effect. So you obviously need to pay attention the brand your next laptop wears.
MSI laptops are well known in gaming circles for their serious design and construction dedication. Their earlier, older products have continued to measure up over a long period of time and are still among the most respected in the world. That is good proof that MSI manufactures so that it gives its customers top quality in leading edge developments.
MSI is also one of the companies that kicks off trends, particularly in gaming rigs
Although MSI is not as popular nor as famous as other brands that invest huge amounts into their marketing profiles, it’s worth noting that they were the first company in the world to release a laptop on the market.
For some time, it was the one and only laptop anyone could afford to purchase.
A few years later, MSI hit the market, defining another new trend; it launched the first 10 inch laptops. Since then, they have continued to build their popularity with keen users who wanted leading edge technology and that has lead most other manufacturers to follow along with similar machines in their own computer ranges.
What will the next MSI laptops look like and what other hit does MSI have in the wings?
Only time can tell, but one thing is for sure – it will not end here.
In such a dynamic and competitive market, choosing the right laptop is a very difficult task. Most have similar components, configurations and designs, not to mention prices.
Then what should you choose?
A lot of very switched on and demanding customers choose defining models from the latest ranges – MSI laptops.
But there is a price to pay for MSI’s growth in popularity and higher profile built on their ground-breaking past… these days, MSI adds new models into many different price points and not all of them are the best in the field.
So we’re here to find out the good and the bad so that we help you make the right choice for your needs.

Hello, i am trying to find a very good laptop at a very good price. i would say anything below $1,400 would work for me, but $10 or something more could be acceptable. So here is a list of laptop makes that i have researched and found: SAGER, FALCON NORTHWEST, HP, DELL, ASUS, TOSHIBA, MSI, VAIO, and MAC. I would like if you could give me some information on these brands of laptops such as failure rates, history, achievements, reputation, first-hand experiences, and population of owners. (i know that's a little too much, but i can help me). And than, i would like you to go onto rather the company's website, Xoticpc, Pro-star, or any other laptop tweaking website (tell me what you used) to customize a laptop. I would like to know things that you tweaked such as RAM, Processor, Monitor Calibration, Thermal Compound, Hard drive (1st and 2nd or even 3rd if possible), Optical Bay Drive, Wireless, Sound Card, Overclocking, OS, Warranty, or anything that comes to be importance to you...ok so recap: i want to know what company, specs, and any comments on what i am missing or is of more importance. I really would appreciate no bad comments, great help, great recommendations, and information. Thanks for helping me, i will choose the best answer tomorrow!
Dont give me definitions on what these terms are, i just want what i asked for, plus the laptop.

Sager and Falcon are overpriced, HP and Toshiba are more everyday than gaming, MSI is meh, and you can't even game on a Mac, bud.
I'd recommend Dell, Alienware or ASUS (G series). ASUS gets you more bang for the buck in terms of power, but Dell and Alienware have their own quirks I guess.
For the sake of your and your laptop's well-being, don't worry about any of these, but I'll go over them for you...
RAM is the system memory (how many things you can have running at once). This can be customized in laptops, but in a gaming laptop, you should already have more than enough.
Processors can be overclocked to some extent, but it will begin to heat up, consume more power, and make the system unstable. I can't help you in this area.
Monitor Calibration on a laptop? I don't think so.
Thermal Compound is a paste that will increase the transfer of heat between the processor and heatsink, making the processor run cooler. You generally won't have to worry about this in laptops.
Hard Drives- Laptops are made to handle only one hard drive. They come in different capacities and rotate at different speeds. Higher speed = faster data access, etc. An SSD is very expensive, but has incredibly fast speeds that make up for it. You really don't need one of these in your gaming laptop, and I'd advise against replacing the hard drive.
Optical Bay Drive, Wireless, Sound Card, OS, Warranty--really? Really??? ........

MSI CX600.
Original price $744.77 CAD
Clearance price $599.77 CAD
My friend is a manager at one of the PC Cyber stores and showed me that PC. Apparently a customer dropped the last model which I'm assuming is the floor model. They sent it away to be repaired or replaced and it came back in about 10 days instead of the full 2 weeks.
I asked what was done with it, he said either replaced the outer shell if everything tested okay or just replaced the entire laptop.
PC Cyber seems to be a little on the unprofessional side and I could see them lying to me about what was done to it. How do I find out if it's a direct replacement and would you buy a laptop with such a history?
Thanks
Yeah I think it'd still the the full warranty.. with MSI it's 2 years I believe. But I just need some way to find out what was done to it.. in of a direct replacement

Don't waste your money. Think of it this way, even with a full warranty, any time your laptop is sent for service you risk loosing all your data, and you are without a laptop for weeks. For a laptop that has been dropped, you could end up sending this thing off so many times, you will end up paying so much for shipping (your PC shop will NOT pay for shipping to a manufacturer, by the way), that you could have just paid full price for a laptop to begin with, and not had any down time.
Its not worth the risk.
