MSI GS70 2OD-Stealth 17.3 inch Laptop Review

The tests were performed in a controlled air conditioned room with temperatures maintained at a constant 24c – a comfortable environment for the majority of people reading this.

Idle temperatures were measured after sitting at the desktop for 30 minutes. Load measurements were acquired by running Furmark and Cinebench together. Room ambient temperatures were 23c.

The cooling system inside has to work quite hard to maintain a stable thermal curve, especially under load.

We attached five diodes to the back of the chassis and measured the temperature (Celcius) after one hour of intensive work and gaming.

The underside of this chassis does get hot while under load and playing games. Two fans draw in cool air via intakes. We would recommend one of these protective cooling mats if you want to use it on your lap regularly.
