MSI GT780DXR 17.3″ Laptop review

The Matroska Media container is a very popular, open standard Multimedia container which is usually found as .MKV files. It is a very popular format in enthusiast circles and can be played directly in Windows Media Player with suitable codecs installed. We use the Combined Community Codec Pack (CCCP).

We ripped our BluRay disc of Sniper Reloaded to 1080P MKV and use Windows Media Player to playback the file.

MKV contained files demand a lot of processing time to render, however this system has no problems, demanding an average of 34 percent CPU time.

Fallout 4 Anniversary

Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition announced for all systems (including Switch 2)

Just under 10 years ago, Fallout 4 officially released to the world. While the game is far from perfect, it resonated with millions thanks to its sandbox-like design and focus on exploration among other ancillary additions (such as the settlement mechanic and base building). As they have done with many of their previous games, Bethesda has now officially announced Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition – bundling the base game alongside its DLC and hundreds of user-created mods.

  1. I love the keyboard, steelseries involved? wow never would have expected that. nice move from MSI. £1,499 is a great price considering. Why drop the backlighting for UK however? second class citizens as usual?

  3. Good looking machine. MSI make surprisingly good laptops. I like them as ASUS more than Dell etc. better spec for the price.

  4. Lets not forget its £300 less than the ASUS too. Unless asus bring their new range prices down this year. I love the look of this, and im not botthered about a bit of noise.

  5. Ordered this a few days ago, will gifve you my views when I get it hopefuylly friday.

  6. The MSI GT780DXR-446US laptop has enough juice to kick BF3 up to ultra and power out native resolution of 1080p just beautifully without a stutter. Which is primarily what I wanted it to be able to do in terms of benchmarking (along with hopefully carry through the next 3 years of game releases). Bottom line, it is a monster of a mobile machine.. And I say this without even slight hesitation.
