Jen reviews MSI's latest gaming flagship: The GS66 Stealth!
Although it provides a high refresh rate display, a great keyboard and powerful performance for gaming, the GS66 Stealth has some serious flaws in its design and build quality, something that's hard to accept in a premium product.

I would like to get a Razer blade advanced 15 2020, but the rate of failure is too high for me to justify getting one.
After careful research I bought this laptop at best buy and so far I love this laptop and the build quality is premium and the mouse pad is made of silky glass which feels very smooth and this laptop has the most positive customer reviews on the best buy website which is important when comparing gaming laptops so do take that into consideration. I would definitely recommend the GS66!
I am on the fence about getting one, I want a razer blade advanced 15 2020, but it seems that the rate of failure and lack of customer support is too high! How are the thermals with your gs66?
@@brucebanner3566 I've had mines for bout 1 month. It can get a but loud when playing games but expected in a think laptop. The major flaw for me is the microphone is positioned right next to fans so gives a lot of feedback noise. I have to use a headset when video calling. Apart from that it's a powerhouse for sure in terms of performance.

I just recently got this same laptop with 2070 GTX 16g ram and 1 TB SSD. I agree with this being a flagship product, but the one thing i see in common that evryone says is the physical structure & quality. If you're nitpicking over physical quality then dont get it, but it goes to say, who the hell is gonna push down on the laptop like that? Just dont be stupid, take care of it, & this will last you a good 10 years or longer.
Thank you for your honest review! I just recently purchased the 2070 MaxQ version yesterday. I really like it a lot. What’s interesting, is out of all the reviews I’ve seen, you’re the only person who has mentioned the flex in the chassis...which it does have. Not a huge deal breaker, but something that has definitely been overlooked. I’m just glad it went on sale this weekend. The discount definitely made it feel on par with what I was paying for . It is now priced like the Asus M15. I couldn’t justify spending anymore, considering the 3000 series GPU’s are right around the coroner. What a huge, amazing step up!!!
Thanks again! Look forward to more videos!!
Would you rather have your gs66 or a razer blade advanced 15 2020?
Bruce Banner The GS66 all day long!! The Razer is very overrated and all I hear are horror stories about their units failing, as well as really bad customer service. Overpriced pieces of junk. Linus Tech had to send in most of their units for being junk.
How are your fans? Do they spin or are they load when idling?
Good quality video.. although i think you should allow more time (do not speak) when recording the fan noises and doing a sound test
I bought my son the Razer Blade 15.6" with the 10th Gen in, RTX 3060 with 512 Gb SSD, 144 Hz display and 16 Gb of RAM. Within 1 week, the Razer Blade started to show problens. The power button was not recognized. Moving the laptop or flexing the case was the only way to have it recognize the power button. I purchased it from Costco and thought the 2 year warranty would protect my purchase. The question is, would my son have issues with reliability. So I checked on TH-cam feedback and saw several negative reviews with cameras and poor customer service. I thought that was a big problem. Yes the Razer Blade case is far superior but the failure of powering the unit on would make the Razer Blade a very expensive block of rock. So I returned it and bought an MSI GS66. I already have an MSI GS65 and the only problem I had was the keyboard failure due to the ribbon cable being crimped. I fixed that and the GS65 has been running reliability from the day I purchased it on 07/2018.
glad you guys are back! was wondering what happened. wanted to show a friend your review on some laptops but wasn't able to find any vids. keep up the great work!
Your video and naration are so smooth! Awesome work
Thanks for your continued support!!
Well, you pay an extra 200$ for the razor blade 15. Plus you get a nice screen. So you are gonna get some sacrifices in materials. So I’m not sure why it’s considered too expensive being in the middle ground on pricing, and arguably better specs than a slightly cheaper m15 r2. So why are you saying it’s too expensive?
Saying it's too expensive is just a way of saying I don't think it's worth the money. Yes, the price is not out of place, but for any amount you spend, it's gotta be worth it.
I spent £1500 on this laptop. Everywhere online i seen it go for £1700 so i was relatively happy with my purchase, i felt like it was the best for its price and anything between £1000 to £1500 had so many compramises
Hi! Welcome back. This is a great video
Please help me with my choice idk what to buy msi gs 66 10se, for 1100$ with i7 and rtx2060 or Lenovo legion 5 with ryzen 7 and gtx 1660 ti for 990$?
Bigest part of day i will do programming and maybe sometime play games. Little bit disappointed temperatures in msi(
Please help 🙏
Very good review and great points.
Hi, what happened to the earlier channel? Found you guys here under a different name and channel :/
We were taken down for reasons we haven't been able to clarify :( Still trying to work that out with TH-cam. Glad you found us!
Too expensive? I have to disagree with that. Now the Razer Blade base is over priced! The GS66 Stealth is amazing device & I'm not experiencing of those "hinge" or "squeak" issues. It's a finger print magnet sure, but everything else is premium.
do u have it ? im looking to buy.. how do you feel about it, which model did u get and how many fps do u get on games like r6 overwatch red dead 2 .. also did u try it with optimus disabled.. ? it gives a fps boost ?
What about the 2.5 gigabit per second Ethernet "3100" to counter the still present thunderspy limited vulnerability? what Ethernet speed on the "good" build systems are like 1gigabit per second Ethernet?
FINALLY SOMEONE WHL UNDEESTANDS ME ITS WAY TO EXPENSIVE AND THEY SHOULD LOWER THE PRICE THANK YOU U DESERVE A SUB!
i want this laptop so much. I rea,ly want the version thag has core i9 10th gen cpu and rtx 2080 graphics and 1 tb ssd and 32 or 16 gb ram basicly all the highest specs like damn but still for its quality kts too epensive k very much agree with u
Thank you. Great review.
This review was the exact same experience I had with my GS66.Felt cheap and horrible thermals. Ended up returning it and getting a 2020 razer blade advanced 2070 super
The msi is way better in my opinion, the razer staff is horrible and much expensive
i really like the chanell. Good reviews
How loud are the fans when you just do regular stuff, so no gaming etc. I'm studying Mechanical Engineering and will need a powerful laptop with a good quality GPU, but I'm just too worried the GS66 will be too loud in class. My biggest tasks will be 3D projects on engineer programs like SolidWorks.
Hi, thank you to make this kind of content, it's really useful, I have the same computer as you, I bought it last week, it happens that in certain moments the computer noise increases too much just by using the internet, not to mention when I try to start rendering in C4D the noise is too much is crazy, there is some way to know how to configure it better, I'm worried that I have a defective computer, I would appreciate it very much if you can help me or maybe inform how to get a solution,
Thanks again
Try Jarrods tech channel. He shows how to access the bios and adjust the power settings for this laptop.
Bruce Banner Thank you, I changed the laptop for a ConcepD and is definitely 💯 times better!
Great job ❤️
Video so good and mood so high :)))
Awesome and honest review, nitpicking like it need it to be!
Kênh mới của ThinkView đó anhem!
Hi. I love the stealth look of gs66 and upgradeability but i heard thermals are very bad. Using chrome excel Netflix etc only how are the thermals? Does undervolting help?
i would be surprised if the fans would even go on while doing such light work(chrome, netflix and stuff). It gets louder and hotter once you do heavy work or start gaming on it.
Nevertheless undervolting never hurts and you should always do it on a laptop
Thermals are good...undervolt and limit turbo to 4.0 on 6 cores....im playing ultra and 100fps with Temps at 70c or less...
This review very honest.good
Hated every moment with my GS66. the spacebar had a defect, but the overall expriense was bad. returned it. never will touch an MSI product again.
Maybe was just that laptop I bought a msi laptop it was amazing. Every gaming laptop yes has flaws but that doesn’t mean the company sucks. MSI has one of the best but we all have our opinions
You're not wrong, but you can't buy a Razer with MSI specs for a decent price. Razer is Macbook pricey.
Mobile workstation and business laptop please :)))
Costs way too much money for a fingerprint magnet with shitty speakers and thermals. Tired of these supposed "high-end" laptops having so many compromises.
So tired :(
why don't u go to best buy and check one out. The speakers are way louder than what these reviewers claim. I was shocked on how great they sounded & thermals are superb! Btw the battery gets me 7-10hrs on average. That's spectacular for a gaming computer.
I agree with you tbh, ive got this laptop and i havent had the flexible body creeking problem, i feel with laptops between £1000 to £1500 have so many compramises, i couldnt find a good all round laptop
@@NotLikeUss u have it :V ? im looking to buy.. how do you feel about it, which model did u get and how many fps do u get on games like r6 overwatch red dead 2 .. also did u try it with optimus disabled.. ? it gives a fps boost ?
oh the price was for msi gs66-039 now seeming discontinued in favor for same step level with the thin 180w brick with 8 core system now to 1,699 as compared to $1,500
Is this channel affiliated to Dave2D? Or am I having dejavu
I always disagree with you. Lol
Nice video
….love my gs66 stealth….some of your points are subjective and as such , taken with a pinch of salt. The only downside is the sound….it’s pure 💩💩💩 ….can’t believe how bad it is 🤣🤣🤣
Thermals at 70c and playing max settings with 80 to 240fps...gotta work your machine...and don't listen to out the box gamers lol
Sorry, how did you do it?
make me some kimchi nouna

Everything you said in this review was positive except the build quality that you said was improved, why are you saying it’s too expensive if so what is a better alternative
