    MSI GX640 Core i5 Gaming Laptop: Specs, Pricing and Release Info





    If you have been looking to buy a new gaming laptop you may want to check out MSI’s upcoming offering, this is the MSI GX640 and it features an Intel Core i5 processor, ths is not only great for performance, but also very good for battery life.

    The GX640’s display is a 15.4-inch LCD screen sporting a 1680×1050 resolution, as mentioned above it runs a Core i5 processor, this is combined with 4 GB of DDR3 memory, an ATI Radeon HD5850 graphics card with 1 GB DDR5 and a 500GB hard drive, this gives the laptop a great backbone for gaming.

    As is the case with most computers/laptops these days the system runs Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit, other things worth mentioning are its 9-cell battery, Bluetooth connectivity and full DirectX 11 graphics support. Due to it being a gaming laptop MSI have aslo pronounced the commonly used W,S,A,D keys.

    A definite release date is not yet known, however it should arrive later this month for $1,099.99 (Amazon), I think this price seems extremely reasonable, what do you think?

    For more information including MSI’s official press release check out the link below.

    Just a joke about the quick pace at which newer and better models are developed at. By the time laptops are put on the store shelf they are already four months out of date, give or take.

    But this is a pretty good laptop. Although it's bound to have overheating problems possibly.

    Words of wisdom come out of this man's mouth...or keyboard anyways


    I'd wait until system specs are released first, and then I'd buy the laptop a week or so before the release(you'd save up more money by that time anyways)

    Well the guy who posted these videos still has his laptop and told me the laptop is normal never going over 80C most laptops exceed this anyway and they are not even gaming laptops.

    If you consider having this for over a year for 800 bucks you just scored big time and from what i hear they can be took to bits medium wise takes some practice but once you master it you can just replace things yourself.

    Guy bought 2 June and now has it to date he says updated drivers and other stuff and laptop runs smoother cooler and operates faster.

    Honestly 80C for a Laptop is not good but its not bad either im guessing if you have a cool room with decent ventilation the laptop will run smooth.

    I know ATI GPU'S run hot so dont bother me if i get a good year out of this laptop .... cant really complain.

    My truthful thought was medium to high with extra turned off.

    however have you played empire or napoleon and what setting can you play with smooth operation ?

    Why the feck is this not in the basement already..............

    I'm guessing that because it is 04:17 AM Central European Time and most mods are European(just a guess...), and they don't work 24 hour shifts
