They sound incredible for a laptop, and listening to Tear You Apart by She Wants Revenge we could clearly hear the bass guitar, even when all the other instrumentation (and even the vocals) are bassy themselves. Perhaps more impressive, though, is that even with that full-sized keyboard, MSI was able to fit top-firing speakers. It’s a small issue, but something that does get annoying after a while. However, we do notice that sometimes the spacebar will repeat, and we’ll have to hit backspace a few times to get back to where we were. They’re still chiclet keys, but they feel much more substantial than on most laptops. The keyboard is also quite comfortable to type on, with plenty of travel. It takes some getting used to, especially if you don’t want to accidentally hit the right arrow key when you’re going for the 0 key, but that’s something that will come with time. There are some compromises to fit it in this chassis, with the buttons on the numpad being quite narrow.

So while this is definitely more portable than a gaming tower, it’s still not something you’re going to want to carry with you as you commute to work every day – unless you really want a workout.īut thanks to the size of this laptop you do get a full keyboard with a numpad. To add to the weight, you’ll need to carry the charger around with you, which is also quite heavy and bulky. The laptop is about an inch thick and weighs 6.9lb, which means it’s definitely noticeable when it’s in your bag.
The MSI Raider GE76 is definitely a laptop that can withstand a beating, although that does mean it’s quite heavy.
The entire chassis is made from metal, from the lid to the bottom of the laptop where all the ventilation is found. The laptop looks like a tank, and it’s kind of built like one too.

Oh, and there’s the giant RGB light bar on the front of the keyboard deck that we can’t figure out how to turn off. There are plenty of sharp angles, a gunmetal-gray lid, and more ports than you can shake a stick at. One look at the MSI Raider GE76 and there's no mistaking that it is a gaming laptop.
