Sappiamo bene che quando si parla di notebook gaming di fascia alta è necessario scendere a compromessi su peso e dimensioni del prodotto. MSI ha però in serbo una sorpresa che potrebbe cambiare questa visione delle cose grazie al nuovo gaming notebook GS70 Stealth. Con uno spessore inferiore a 2,18 centimetri ed un peso di appena 2,65 kg, il GS70 nella sua categoria è il più sottile e leggero.
Lo schermo Full HD ha una diagonale di 17,3" mentre la batteria ad elevata capacità offre un'autonomia vicina a quella di notebook tradizionali. Il raffreddamento è invece affidato alla tecnologia MSI two channel e non mancano feature interessanti come la tastiera Steelseries retroilluminata, il sistema surround 2.1 channel e l'amplificatore per cuffie. Il tutto è racchiuso in uno chassis realizzato in lega di alluminio e magnesio.
Eric Kuo, associate vice president global sales di MSI Notebook, afferma: "MSI not only continues to create top-of-the-line gaming notebooks, we also listened to our customers' calls for both portability and performance. This notebook is relatively thinner and lighter than other similarly powerful machines, and we have also strengthened the market leading features exclusively available with MSI notebooks. We worked hand in hand with professional gaming teams around the world, such as FNATIC, and listened to the needs of hardcore gamers. The result is the hardware breakthroughs and technological innovations of the GS70. MSI provides gamers with the ultimate in processing power and gaming functionality all in a beautiful metal chassis for the perfect user experience."
