[theUsernameSucks2]

The button to the right is the light dumbass......

[raaaptile]

you laptop will go BAM BURN

[ap0lmc]

I will never buy MSI products they suck. They overheat and the hinges break so easily.

[FlawlessQTpie]

The one on the far right controls the LEDs on the notebooks sides. The one to the left of the power button deactivates the windows key so that when you are playing games, you dont accidentally press the windows key and get thrown out of the game...

[HectorVII]

how are ur computers hinges not broken???????????

[marchandler]

"Hi, I'm going to show you all about the one-touch features on this laptop, only I don't know what half of them do..." sweet

[marcellnl]

is this still a good gaming laptop? will it handle BF3 on ultra?

[jozzymar1]

Duvidas ???

[napoleon950]

what is better: i7 low Ghz or i3 high Ghz?

[dakiller234]

@napoleon950 it depends how much u overclock but the best choice is an i5 2500k

[napoleon950]

@dakiller234 Ah ok.

[FlawlessQTpie]

@napoleon950 i7 with lower Ghz ofc lol... quad core with higher bits processes a lot more data than dual core with low bits...

[napoleon950]

@FlawlessQTpie there are i3's with quadcore...

[CaMstansian]

is thsi better than alienware mx 18?

[Ryan0Ebbers]

@CaMstansian Alienware blows, so yes.

[jamesjosephclarke]

Back in the day when computers had a turbo button.

[JAF5537]

That laptop looks amazing.:)

[jarvin21]

can you please help my? my system control manager does not work, :(

[vibins360]

button to the far right turns leds on or off. button to the left of power button disables the windows key.

[pogi2st]

CHECK THIS OUT GUYS WHY MSI IS WORLD BEST OF THE BEST

>>>> MSI GX640 F1 SUPER LAPTOP BEST THAN ASUS AND DELL ALIENWARE

[tomsegrisen]

i have this laptop and its great :D the icon he dint knew what did, is turning ON some light on the back of the laptop.

[Shadowx209]

hey, what tempetures you get, after playing 1 or 2 hours of gamplay in this machine? do you recommend this to anyone?

[marlo1204]

i wish my desktop had an "OMG My Desktop is Quiet Button"

[bshara18]

thanks for checking out linus tech tips don't forget to subscribe and ... that will make me happy :D

[HenkSpankK]

why are all those new msi's so damn ugly?

[ctoon6]

i looked up the price, and at 1800-1900 i think it is actually not too bad for what you get, as far as laptops go.

[montivincenzo449]

good i like your video but i don't like cats

[EmoticonMayhem]

my laptop has an OMG my laptop is noisy button, it's called the crysis icon :)

nah I kid, I don't have crysis bt if I did it would probably have that effect

[jordan010203]

3:33

[Mastermind12358]

nice vga cable

[firetarp]

SOOOOOOOOOO LOUD!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[KaraniKun]

@Steebod Uh-huh and why bother investing in over $600 for a monitor when you can get the same size cheaper, right? There is more to computers than what is written on a piece of paper. Just because the cpu is the same, it doesn't equate to being identical, you have to look at the sum of the computer. Same goes for the monitor reference. A graphic artist has no use for a cheap TN panel that shifts colours. I highly doubt Dell can match Dynaudio ect.

[mrkeith557]

whats the point in doing this on a laptop its just gonna risk blowning the cpu or hardware overclocking is a risk anyway i dunno why people bother with it

[impacterno]

Cool Beans.

[Steebod]

I'd rather have a dell

[margolo]

Why? Dell sucks.

[Steebod]

@margolo I've always had Dell. No need for stupid fancy looking crap from MSI. They aren't the only ones to have core i7 etc

[hittan00]

which is the price

[billy5110]

Does linus say in every high-end video card unboxing when taking the dvi to vga adapter to bring a DVI or HDMI screen? I think he got an high-end on in the case BUT HE IS USING VGA!!!

[Tangylives]

@billy5110 NCIX uses VGA KVM switches still.

[rww100]

@billy5110 That's Crazy Russian's set up, not his :p

[BlueSkyReviews]

Looks a very nice laptop, it's sort of like the one I have now but he MSI is so much better! Would love to review one myself!

[MrBubb13]

Nice choice on the microsoft keyboard Linus. This message was typed with the same one.

[septemberxv]

i just made linus happy

[CoolHayward]

Only $1641 on NCIX.

[Rzrjo]

Cool Beans and Awesome sauce.

[brbk4498]

Nice laptop, good vid btw

[LogiForce86]

He's cooling beans with that laptop? :o

[i7ntel]

Beans... :D

[KaraniKun]

@wesclev83 Then buy a mouse...there isn't some rule that forbiddens anyone from plugging a usb mouse into a laptop...

[KaraniKun]

@USAFFountain Only in the traditional sense. But honestly, how many gamers do you see going outside to game under the glaring sun or at a Starbucks? If someone travels often, slipping this into a backpack is far easier than lugging a monitor, tower and peripherals. Especially for those who stay at hotels often via business. :P

[altoidfart]

Cool Beans xD

[runeweb]

Cool Beans lol

[mikey9890]

Loool he said cool beans. Hahah

[Drenizer]

1 person doesn't want Linus to be happy D:

[USAFFountain]

This laptop is super nice for gaming, not so much for portability.

[yorky321]

Cool beans...bahaha wat a fuckin legend.

[worlddomin623]

Haven't seen a computer with a literal "Turbo" button on it.

[XxViciousxX]

thats a pretty sweet laptop.

[theUsernameSucks2]

@XxViciousxX i got it :)

[drKlitzman]

What is that little metallic container in your hand linus? Are they drugs?

[iExD]

Make Linus Happy by Subscribing! Oh WAIT, I subscribed already >.>

[benigo15]

super nerds wear shirts with computer stuff on them

[ryuchanlee]

Mines at only 27 degrees.

[ksnovak]

what a waste of time 

[yoyotuber4000]

overclock became that easy? that sucks!

[FELIX0123]

my dumb sony laptop turns on turbo boost and cranks up my temp to 70 degrees -.-

[probaner92]

in 2:07 the core speed goes up to 2,924 GHz O.o

and Linus you say it's lower than before :D

[NVIDIAguy343]

@probaner92 it went from 2.9... to 2.5.

[probaner92]

@NVIDIAguy343 I've seen that of course... but the first moment it went straight up... how could that happen? I mean normally a CPU doesn't do that ^^

[NVIDIAguy343]

@probaner92 Yeah, true. A wtf moment for all of us :D

[FreedomThinkerKnight]

that's a pretty nice laptop.

[Hokrollo1]

I want that buttom on my keyboard!

[nir0z]

u are best!

[wesclev83]

I have a deep seated hatred for track pads. So i hate laptops.

[Skunk2K20]

Real temp says 740qm CPUZ says 820qm.... Which is it?

[Kurdestar]

Most Leptops looks crappy but this actually looks very nice. These Boxes are giving a speed feeling to the user. Great thing

[Terinigan]

I would like a funspeed button on my M4400 ): Overheats->Fans goes crazy->Temps goes back down->Fans running slow again->Overheats->Repeat

[5british5]

thats a nice laptop

[salsa2good]

woudlnt this "laptop" burn through your lap?

[Ti133700N]

@salsa2good Probably, I have a XPSM1730 and it also has the "burn your lap" feature.

[tenajnin]

Linus I think you've been watching Uncle Tone recently :-p

Sweet Laptop :)

[ArtDamage911]

Great video review but looks like newegg users aren't so happy :(

[jatigre1]

How about a review on the Asus G73JW-3DE? That would make ME happy! :-)

[MagMausen]

Do you have to download the a software, to se what core speed you got?? :D

[FlAvIuS861]

the price well......=2000$ on ebay

[RockTouching]

78 degrees with max speed on fans. Hope ingame it doesn't get that hot.

[madebarriere]

@RockTouching your laps might burn, but the i7 can support up to 100°C

[buchner96]

cool thing

[CrackofDoom90]

All this goodies are useless beacuse the cooling system SUCKS . I have something similar from MSI and you can't use the turbo button because it goes up to 90 degrees and starts acting like shit.

[falafelpojkeN]

love your videos as always linus, a tip for followup videos is to make the followup a video response to the original video

[spurrell]

"touch sensitive buttons" lol

[Drewrob26]

I wish my Laptop had an "OMG My Laptop is Noisy Button"

[AaronJenkins000]

I would love to work at his warehouse!

[NextLvlProductions]

@AaronJenkins000 so u can steal hardware ? xD

[HLM190586]

i love how ghetto his video is, no intro animation or fancy transition, just pure professional presentation.

[firestorm2000]

the ones u know nothing about are actually the self destruct buttons, press them in the right sequence and BOOM!!!

[renegade8164]

Such a bloated plastic design...

[LoneStar647]

Why does real temp say i7 740?

[PauliusSmile]

I like Beans too !

[audax5435]

hey linus.. can you configure how much the turbo button actually bumps up? like the multiplier or bus speed?

[90thewall]

i want that shirt!!! :D

[daredm]

cool beans!!

[handwashedstars]

OMG OMG he said COOL BEANS !

[using192]

@handwashedstars :S?

[CRuleProductions]

Imagine going into a lecture theater with that laptop and turning the turbo fan on.

Shit would be epic.

[Anball2]

why in the world thay all are glossy?? who desings this piece of shit.

[Jorgie0101]

@Anball2 Because they look all nice & shiny in photos & in stores before people realise they will get covered in fingerprints & very visible dust

[Snake1979xfire]

I did like the fan option.

[iRowey]

nice laptop, bet its very expensive

[showdownatsundown]

Me likey. Battery kife?

[altu892]

WHAT IS THE BATTERY LIFE

[markolo25]

@altu892 hahah 2 hours in turbomode

[altu892]

@markolo25 I am SERIOUS.... I want to know what is the battery life

[markolo25]

@altu892 yea probably around 2 hours in turbo mode, 8 hours in eco mode

[DanteSuper]

Make Linus happy at 3:33 !

[HLM190586]

@DanteSuper

Well he doesn't look happy though

[BOOMbarash5000]

OK, i get just one thing.. All of those cool illuminated buttons DOESN'T WORK

[whiteoreoxx]

I use the turbo button for my U100.

[brettfuckingdunn]

Thumbs up for Kool beans.

[iGhost]

werent you going to test that laptop audio linus ? :p

[alterbyme]

Cool beans, indeed

[Metal666HateEmosGays]

[iminent=Bf8FG9gUWfOB] 

[eddyMx]

[doubleatheman]

[poachman97]

... And that would make me happy

[Anthony4378]

[hahaha10001]

[momojabada]
