hi all im thinking of geting a new laptop at the end of this month when i get payed whats every one think of the MSI GX660? is there any hardwhere bugs or any thing as the laptop i have at mo a HP HD laptop has lots lol. also does it come with 8gb ram as it saysing on the laptops info its 6GB but on one the Review's he says he got 8GB? :confused:
 
Personally I love mine. The first batch that OcUK received were the GX660R and not the standard GX660, hence the faster processor and extra memory. Time will tell if the next batch are the standard ones or not. The WD blue drives that come with the laptop are pretty bad to be honest, they park the heads and make some games hang for a second or two here and there. There's a fix but it isn't 100%. I'll be replacing my drives for WD blacks come payday.

Apart from that it's bang on. Rips through games, nice and light for a gaming laptop, and it stays nice and cool when you have it on your lap. Speakers are amazing. Keyboard takes a bit of getting used to but I find myself quite liking it now.
 
cool how hard is it to remove and put in a new HDD cos i mite get a better HDD for it if it not a pain to do. also how loud are the speakers? has my HP laptop speakers are crap lol you have to put them up to 80% to here whats going on.
 
I have the GX660R.

Its very easy to replace the HDD, I would suggest as Worthy as in getting a WD Black and replace the WD Blue as they really are poor.

ITs a pucka piece of kit and a complete bargain :)

cool thanks for info. also what do you get in the box to ya get carry case and stuff with the laptop?
 
no carry case or anything im affraid but for the price these are its not surprising they dont thow in any extras as theyre stuffin almost £1400 worth of lappy in there for under a grand ;-)

As worthy and deus3x say, theyre an amazing laptop. I got mine at the same time in the first batch so was also lucky to net a 660r also. i just hope everyone else waiting for batch 2 gets the same ;-)

Ended up upgrading ms hdd to a vertex 2e and it just tears through games ;-)
