MSI Raider GE76-12UHS Review: Beastly Power at a Price

MSI has chosen the most powerful available components for the Raider GE76-12UHS. That includes a 12th Gen Intel Core i9-12900K CPU with differentiated P-cores and E-cores, as well as an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 Ti GPU. It has 32GB of DDR5 RAM and a 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD. Performance in games is phenomenal and there was no stuttering whatsoever on this review unit, which had the 17.3-inch 1080p 360Hz display option. MSI has gone with a bold RGB light strip across the entire front, plus per-key RGB keyboard backlighting. This laptop is comfortable enough to use, but gets quite hot under heavy load. It weighs 2.9kg. All this hardware comes at a huge price though.
