MSI GE60 2OD-251US i5 4200M 8GB 750GB 15.6in HD GTX760M 2GB DVDRW Win8 Gaming Notebook

Cons: - The ODD is very flimsy.- The sensitivity of the mousepad seems a little too dull. Apple laptops have the best touchpad by far.- I am not sure if it is only my laptop but the brightness of the monitor seems a little dimmer than regular LED monitor.- When the brightness of the monitor was changed from 100 -> 90, then the monitor gets dimmer, which is supposed to happen. But when it is decreased from 90 to 80, the screen gets brighter again. When the brightness is decreased again from 80 to 70, the screen gets dimmer again. Because of this reason, I replaced my laptop to the brand new one but the new one still has the same problem.- The subpar battery time. It barely lasts for 2 hrs.- Compare to Asus Republic of Gaming or Alienware, the cooling system of this laptop is below average. However I am using a notebook cooling pad and I have not encountered any problem regarding getting hot too quickly.

Pros: - Great specs and quality relative to cheap price.- It has Windows 7 not 8. Some people might prefer the newest OS but I still love Windows 7 and this is probably the only gaming laptop that has Windows 7 now.- Even though the screen is 15.6", the weight is still 2.4kg which is the same weight as HP 14.1" laptops.- The LCD monitor has FHD resolution.- It has SteelSeries backlight keyboard.- SSD and additional RAM memories can be added easily by consumers.- USB 3.0, HDMI, and VGA ports are available.
