MSI GT80S 6QF Titan SLI w/ Desktop GTX980’s (unboxing)

MSI's GT80 Titan was our favourite laptop of 2015. Our original review way back in January last year scored it 9.5 out of 10. It also won our highest award for best laptop of the year 2015. This was the first laptop to incorporate a fully fledged mechanical keyboard, and this year they have decided to incorporate fully fledged GTX980 graphics cards. While we work on the full review, today we present a little taster – our unboxing of what could possibly be the most powerful gaming laptop available. At £4,000 we have high hopes for this monster gaming beast!
