A gaming notebook that costs $800 (+- R8000)? To me this is very suprising as one would know gaming notebooks usually go for above 20 grand. If you are not one of those wealthy geeks, then purchasing a gaming notebook wouldnt be something you would consider, but with this you can. You wont have to deprive yourself of food for a few months or sell your car to afford this. That being said, this lappy can definitely hold its own in a frag off.

Obviously this is not match for an Alienware 17″ $3500 machine, but it aint not rip off either. MSI included a 2.3-GHz AMD X2 and 4 GB of RAM to give it a respectable 100.4 frames per second in Quake 4, and its business performance score put it in league with a Sony FZ or Apple 15-incher.

There are a few niglies about this though that the avid gamer may not enjoy. Such as no Blu Ray, there are only two USB ports, the fan apparently blows directly onto your mouse and the key placements are slightly off, especially the left control key which has been moved one key right, and in its place goes an FN key. This would be very annoying. They have added a numpad though.

The battery life only lasts about 1.5hrs, but given that its a gaming laptop, well let that one pass.

So if you are on the road, like to do some gaming every now and then, this could be for you, it doubles quite well as a business lappy as well, so you the best of both worlds.
