MSI GE63VR Raider technical features

Unboxing and design

The laptop arrives in a large cardboard box with a predominance of the brand's corporate colors, that is, black and red. Nor is the dragon so characteristic of the brand's gaming series missing, which is a true statement of the potential behind its products.

This specific model does not include any accessories apart from the equipment itself, the documentation, a drivers CD and its 230W power supply. You really don't need any extras to stand out either. The laptop comes in a cloth bag to avoid scratches (the aluminum is delicate, and very dirty in terms of fingerprints), in line with other MSI models.

The MSI G63VR Raider Raider is a fairly large model because its screen reaches a diagonal of 15.6 inches and Full HD resolution although we also have the option of choosing a 4K panel.

It is an IPS screen with what promises excellent image quality. Although there is a second version that has a 3 ms screen, a speed of 120 Hz and a color coverage of 94% of the NTSC spectrum. These displays feature HDR technology and enhanced contrast to deliver exceptional image quality.

As for the measures we see that it is a team with a medium size although pulling large, it does not surprise us since a high performance implies the need for a large cooling capacity. Thus, the MSI G63VR Raider measures 383 x 260 x 27.5 mm with a weight of 2.39 kg.

As for the connections, it has the following:

1 x Type-C USB3.1 Gen23 x Type-A USB3.01 x RJ451 x SD (XC / HC) 1 x (4K @ 60Hz) HDMI1 x Mini-DisplayPort

The lower part exhibits the traditional red and black grille that allows to improve the air flow of the equipment to avoid overheating of its components. The top does not detract from anything either, with very good details such as the MSI logo illuminated by the screen's own backlight, along with two also illuminated red bands.

MSI has spared no hardware and has assembled the best components on the market right now, starting with a seventh-generation Intel Core i7 processor that won't have a problem getting the most out of the GeForce GTX 1070 graphics card. This combination is devastating and offers a sensational performance in the most demanding games since there will be none that will resist it for the next few years. This set is powered by a 6 cell, 54 W / h battery.

All of this is cooled by the advanced Cooler Boost 5 system, which allows the hardware to be kept running at optimum temperatures while remaining as quiet as possible. This system includes a total of 7 heatpipes, four air vents and two Whirlwind Blade fans with maximum efficiency and no less than 32 blades to move a large amount of air.

We continue with 16 GB of DDR4 memory in a single channel configuration along with a 512 GB SSD and a 2.5 ″ 1 TB HDD at 7200 RP M so you don't lack storage space or maximum speed. Thanks to this SSD you can work at full load without being burdened by slow storage and the applications will open instantly so you don't have to waste your precious time waiting.

We got to the sound and how could it be otherwise with the best MSI equipment, we find the Nahimic technology with a military origin that is specialized in high-fidelity positioning, with this we managed to locate our enemies on the battlefield with high precision and the best experience with virtual reality systems. The characteristics of your sound system continue with an ESS SABER HiFi DAC and Dynaudio Giant Speakers speakers that promise spectacular sound quality with 5 times more camera space, providing 40% higher volume so you don't fall short. in no situation.

The network is signed by Killer DoubleShot Pro which prioritizes video game related packages to reduce latency and improve stability.

MSI includes a one-year subscription to the XSplit Gamecaster platform that will allow us to rebroadcast our games to Twitch, YouTube, UStream and more.

The keyboard is another key part of a notebook and the MSI G63VR Raider includes a unit made by SteelSeries with the highest quality membrane technology and an individual RGB LED lighting system for each key.

Software and performance tests

MSI Dragon Center is an application that allows us to get the most out of our laptop. Among its functions it allows us to customize the image quality, monitor the temperature and overclock the processor and graphics card frequencies. If that were not enough, we can carry out all these procedures from our smartphone thanks to its Official APP. You can see the good work that the MSI boys do in each generation jump.

As we have already mentioned, the keyboard is designed by Steelseries and comes equipped with powerful software that allows us to configure macro keys, its lighting and up to 4 default profiles.

Regarding performance tests we have passed Cinebench R15 and the result is fantastic thanks to its i7-7700HQ processor reaching up to 736 CB points. A result to match any high-end notebook Only second to the i7-7820HK!

Everything you are selling us is very nice, but… How does the MSI G63VR Raider perform ? To check its performance we have chosen to only pass the games to the native resolution: 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) so that you can see the performance it offers us with the base configuration. Obviously all the filters to the maximum:
