MSI GT780DXR 17.3″ Laptop review

The tests were performed in a controlled air conditioned room with temperatures maintained at a constant 23c – 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.

The battery life of this machine is better than the Asus G74SX, averaging around 30 minutes longer when playing back media and when used in our ‘businessman' environment. We even managed to get 1 hour and 47 minutes from it, when gaming.
