Here comes another ultra-compact industrial barebone PC from MSI, the MS-9A29. Based on the Intel NM10 Express Chipset, this fanless system is packed with a 1.86GHz Intel Atom D2550 processor, one DDR3 SO-DIMM 1066 slot (up to 4GB), two mini PCI-Express x2 slots (one with SIM holder), one SATA slot, one mSATA slot, two Gigabit Ethernet, six USB 2.0 ports, four COM ports, one HDMI port and one D-Sub port. Pricing and release date are still unknown at the moment. [MSI]
Gaming laptops tend to tread on thin ice, as they are normally large and bulky in order to accommodate the parts within which require more space than a “normal” working-class laptop. And as physics would dictate, the larger an object is, generally speaking, it would be heavier. Not only that, the performance that you are able to coax out of a gaming laptop would still fall short of your home’s souped up gaming rig most of the time. Well, MSI intends to turn things upside down with the introduction of the MSI GS70 gaming laptop.
For starters, the MSI GS70 gaming laptop is a definitely looker, coming in such a svelte body that you might mistake it for an Ultrabook of sorts. After all, we are talking about an ultra-thin and light brush aluminum chassis that measures less than an inch thin, tipping the scales at a respectable 5.7 lbs, clearly making this the thinnest and lightest 17” gaming laptop in the world. I guess MSI has succeeded in achieving the balance between portability and power on the go.
Just what kind of parts will you be able to find underneath the hood? For starters, the MSI GS70 would come with the latest 4th generation Intel Core i7 processor running proceedings from within, and it is accompanied by the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 765M. You will also find a Killer DoubleShot NIC, a SteelSeries full color backlit keyboard with Anti-Ghosting keys, a 17” Full HD anti-reflective display at 1,920 × 1,080 resolution, a 2.1 speaker system with integrated sub-woofer featuring Sound Blaster Cinema, 16GB RAM, a quartet of USB 3.0 ports, a trio of audio jacks, and a 720p HD webcam.
Not only that, the MSI GS70 prides itself in being the first dual fan laptop with a special thermal solution design which will pull heat from the top side of the laptop, dissipating it instead at a 45 degree upward angle to deliver superior performance and a cool gaming experience even if you have cranked all the detail levels in the game to the maximum to work the MSI GS70. The asking price would start from $1,799.99, with two configurations to choose from.

MSI is no stranger to gaming notebooks in the past, and here we are with yet another model that looks set to burn up benchmark scores – with the MSI GS70, which has been touted by MSI to be the “world’s thinnest and lightest” 17-inch gaming notebook, where it was specially designed in order to fuse the power required so that it can tackle even the most demanding games, without sacrificing on portability. Of course, anything that is 17” in my opinion is not going to cut the mustard should it be used as your showfloor coverage device – that is what Ultrabooks and the MacBook Air are for. This, our dear readers, is meant to let you get your gaming fix on the go – without feeling too homesick for your souped up rig.
The MSI GS70 will feature the latest 4th generation Intel Core i7 processor underneath the hood, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 765M graphics card, 16GB RAM, a quartet of USB 3.0 ports, a 720p HD webcam, Killer DoubleShot NIC, a 17” Full HD anti-reflective display, a 2.1 speaker system, and a SteelSeries full color backlit keyboard with Anti-Ghosting keys. Not only that, the entire shebang measures under 1” thin, tipping the scales at a mere 5.7 lbs. Before the days of the Ultrabook and MacBook Air, this would’ve been a modern miracle, but right now, it is a notch lower – just an exceptionally constructed gaming laptop. Expect it to start from $1,799.99 onwards, there will be two configurations to choose from. [Press Release] and [Product Page]

MSI tentatively entered the world of thin and light gaming laptops with the GE40. With the newly launched GS70, the company is leaping in with both feet. The 17.3-inch portable is clearly built to take on the Razer Blade Pro, mating a big screen with a chassis that’s even lighter — at 5.7 pounds, the GS70 is a flyweight next to its 6.6-pound rival. While the system’s quad-core, Haswell-based Core i7 CPU, GeForce GTX 765M graphics and 128GB SSD match what Razer offers, MSI doubles the RAM to 16GB and complements its storage with a 750GB hard drive. That makes the GS70’s $1,800 base price a potential bargain — if you don’t mind losing the Blade Pro’s touchscreen trackpad, you’ll get more PC for the money.

Inside the MSI GS70 you’ll find a rather surprising assortment of top-level features considering the entire notebook is less than an inch thick.
