I purchased this same laptop but with the 16GB Opane /1TB HDD combo for $769 USD plus an additional $100 MIR on Newegg. My model came with 8GB DDR4-2666 so I added another 8GB DDR4-2666 stick and replaced the 16Gb Opane drive with a 500GB Crucial MX500 SSD. I have to say i'm very pleased with the results. The main things that attracted me to the laptop were the size and specs for the price, we're talking a 4.1lbs + .85 inch with an i7 for well under $999 USD. A few years ago Apple would have charged you $2500 for a laptop this size with far less power. The Dell G5 is a whale by comparison at the same price point.

I purchased the 8rc(i5 and 1050) for 60k Indian rupees equivalent to 855 USD but that's not surprising because prices of laptops aur quite high in India. Although the only other laptop with same config but 1050ti was around the same price was Acer nitro 5 which is thick and heavy. So I am happy with my purchase.

@Anupam Kumar, bro are you able to run the games smoothly and experiencing great performance? Cause I'm gonna buy the 65k variant anytime soon, so I wanted some personal reviews :)

[@anupamkumar7083]

Yes the games works flawlessly considering what you are expecting from a gtx 1050(I assume you are buying i7+gtx 1050). Assassins creed odyssey works great 1080p all setting high and adaptive anti-aliasing(30fps mode) with 150mhz overclock. I think there are better options if you only want performance like acer predator helios 300 and nitro 5 both have 1050ti with ssd(this dosent have one) and both quite heavy. But if you want a laptop with great performance and good battery live(5-6 hrs productivity) and small package I mean very small and light than other atleast right now. You could also wait for new laptop with next gen graphics.

Nice review man! I bought this laptop recently for about 60000 russian rubles (around 850$ american currently), and i'm pretty impressed with it. Intel i5 9300H is a HUGE CPU, it computes everything in seconds. The NVidia GTX 1050 TI Max-Q is pretty descent, the 4gb graphical memory are especially useful when comparing to standart 1050. It's not 1060, but it's still good. I got the 8-gb DDR4 module, with 512 .M2 SSD. Enoung for me. And there are extra slots for both operative and static memory, which is quite useful. U was playing Wither 3 with custom settings (somewhere around medium-high), with no fan speed boost, and i got pretty descent FPS around 50 i think. The only problem is cooling system. In games the CPU and GPU are pretty hot. I try to keep them not higher than 80 degrees, but not always successful. But consider that i didn't use cool boost: the notebook sounding like a launching spaceship scares my cat :) With it the temperatires OK, i believe. Overall, i like the two-fan notebook idea better. Problem number two: the wifi module is pretty weak and drops connection often. But if you are sitting on a wire -- no problem then. Conclusion: Really descent laptop for its price, especially considering it's from MSI. Like the screen and keyboard design.

[@JarrodsTech]

Thanks! That's good to hear! Have you tried raising the back of the machine up to help with thermals? Undervolting could help too, here's a guide if you need it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3_Xan9pd7yCfNE You could try install a WiFi 6 card or something newer than what you have, but would also depend on your access point, might not necessarily be the laptop's issue.

[@zane4717]

For those who bought the new 1650 Max Q model, you can achieve mid 70s high 60s by doing the following: 1. Download Intel XTU and undervolt -0.140 2. For best cooling and louder fans use cooler boost in dragon center. For quieter gaming and very good cooling use advanced settings in fan speeds and adjust the fan speeds incrementally based on temperature. 3. VERY IMPORTANT: In battery power plan options change processor power management from 100 to 99 percent. This disabled Intel turbo boost which is useless and only adds 15 degrees to your system. 4. OPTIONAL but RECOMMENDED: thermal paste your system. It's easy to access the gpu and CPU for this system. 5. IMPORTANT: In Intel XTU disable Intel turbo short boost (this sends more power to your system overheating it and power throttling it) Unfortunately even through all this the system still power limit throttles but I get better performance, lower temps and quieter gaming.

Cool thanks for sharing your results with it, I haven't had a chance to try out the newer model yet.

Good to hear, depends if you're limited by what ever you currently have, check task manager and see if there is not enough. Alternatively if you currently run single channel (1x stick) then going to dual channel (2x sticks should also see a performance boost. Nvidia GPU is soldered to the motherboard and cannot be upgraded.

[@JarrodsTech]

Thanks!

[@OuiMimi]

My oculus rift is not connecting with my gf63 8rd, the hdmi is not being recognized, is the hdmi connected to the motherboard or?/

[@JarrodsTech]

Honestly not sure if the HDMI is connected to the Intel or Nvidia graphics, I didn't test it as I don't have any VR equipment. MSI list HDMI as 4K@30Hz which means it's only 1.3-1.4, does that meet VR requirements?

[@OuiMimi]

@@JarrodsTech It says "compatible HDMI 1.3 video output"

[@JarrodsTech]

Hmm might be just enough then, but annoying that many companies like MSI don't actually list the specific version, this is a very common problem.

[@davidmozaffari6260]

Hey Jarrod. Thanks for all your videos. Is a gaming laptop still a good choice? Or desktop is better?

[@reservoir_flow]

Depends what you're using it for fam. Desktops usually gibe better specs at the same price points as gaming laptops, but laptops offer portability and the inclusion of Windows and KB+M. If you live a relatively mobile lifestyle and can accept the limited upgradability, or don't have the space for a desktop, a gaming laptop is your best bet. If you have the space and don't need all that power on the go, getting a desktop and buying a cheaper used/ lower spec laptop will go a longer way.

[@JarrodsTech]

I agree with Ibrahim, if you need portability then a laptop is your best option. If you don't need to take it anywhere then a desktop will be cheaper and give you better performance.

[@davidmozaffari6260]

[@sambovisal6362]

Thanks! Don't you mind please tell me about this model GF63 vs TUF FX505 while programming or gaming regarding heat? which one should I consider to buy for programming and not much gaming. Thank you

[@JarrodsTech]

You can check my FX505 reviews to compare the results, I honestly can't remember the differences as it's been a while since I used it sorry.

[@genesixia]

What is name of the game in 10:51 ?

[@Aciimov]

Probably need one more fan for better cooling

[@JarrodsTech]

Yeah maybe, but with increased fan speed it does run perfectly fine even under full load.

[@freakmotions]

Hello sir, can you tell me which is better between MSI GF63(i7 9th gen) and MSI Alpha 15? For Designing purpose and Gaming as well?

[@JarrodsTech]

Depends on GPU spec of the GF, the i7 will smash the crap out of the 3750H though. 5500M will beat a 1650.

[@samsalot6115]

Can you review the gf63 9sc please

[@anassrhandi7615]

Watching this from my Gf63 8sc with 8300h and gtx1650 which is definetely a great combination for 700$ in Aug 2019 since the same model with 9th gen i5 costed 900$

[@JarrodsTech]

Nice, good to hear!

[@nolashdemon]

Do u recommend this for film editing?

[@michikotm2073]

i can’t choose between the acer nitro 5 and this laptop. can you help me ?

[@JarrodsTech]

I prefer the design of this, as for performance differences hard to compare as I used the AMD Ryzen version, the review is on the channel.

[@michikotm2073]

Jarrod'sTech thank you. i like the design of this one too. i want to play games like overwatch, csgo, apex legends on it.

[@JarrodsTech]

Those should run quite well 👍

[@krishnasamirdash3969]

Very good man ! Last night I was watching videos in your channel about strix scar 2 and others... You r really a nice guy with a detailed explanation..... This is a good laptop and I think 1050ti is a kind of old graphics card now... I should be considering 1060 or 1070... Because the gaming sector is developing every day and the recommendation of games getting higher and higher... BTW... Appreciated

[@JarrodsTech]

Thanks! Yeah depends on the games you play of course, personally I'd want at least a 1060, but not too long until new graphics are out though.

[@hasakaart23]

Does it throttle? I have doubt about the single fan?

[@JarrodsTech]

From what I recall it was ok given one fan, but I can't actually remember as this is an older video. I'm currently on a plane to CES so can't check it, but thermals are definitely covered in depth in the video.

[@LightningShiva1]

Thank you for the detailed review. Been thinking about this laptop from a long time. Will order it today :) Edit : But mine is a I7 9750H

[@bubba5403]

SO its bettwr

[@zirconandfriends]

is this ok for using for school (typing, taking notes, etc.)?

[@vexx1594]

why wouldn't it lol ??

[@JoshDaPosh]

This review is so unbelievably helpful! Thanks man! For the others reading this...please save your money on a desktop first!

[@JarrodsTech]

Good to hear! It really depends on whether or not you need the portability, if you don't actually need to take it anywhere then sure a desktop would be preferable if you have the space.

[@manshster]

Would you recommend this or the GV62 8RE ? Only 200$ difference where iam ?

[@JarrodsTech]

This has nicer build quality, I'd probably get this, although if same specs they'd probably perform similarly so depends on your priorities.

[@manshster]

@@JarrodsTech the one i was look at is the GV62 8RE i7 8th gen and 1060gtx and 16gb ram

[@JarrodsTech]

The 1060 would perform a fair bit better than the 1050 Ti Max-Q in this one, if you're just using it for gaming get the GV.

[@sofia1881js]

I’ve got mine right in front of me atm This is my first gaming laptop, and the fan is really loud. I’m assuming it’s normal, right? Ehe

[@JarrodsTech]

You can hear my results around the 10 minute mark, at default settings I actually thought it was quieter than average, but a bit louder than average if you manually max out the fan.

[@sofia1881js]

Does it get hot while gaming? And what about the battery life?

[@tonguelash4314]

@@elarabymohammed1 The model of my laptop was the GTX 1650 Max-Q Design with the i7-9750H that I got in September. This computer is amazing and it can run any game I throw at it at a constant 60+fps. When playing Overwatch I've seen it peak up to 80+ degrees Celcius without Cooler Boost. When Cooler Boost was on, it stayed at a constant 60 degrees. (This is the most "high temperature" game I've played on this laptop). The battery life is about a couple hours while surfing and 1-2 hours while gaming (I'm not really sure because I keep it plugged in 90% of the time)
