Cant believe they managed to fit Audio in there. Mind blown.I had the impression 1920 x 1200, 16:10, was a thing from 20 years ago.
more same ole same same, boring AF, and probably overpriced (wintel) gamr tois for da gamr bois/gurls :D
P.a.S.s.....
I'd also like to thank MSI for releasing the 32GB variants, now others will likely follow as well.
big fat no
Suffice to say we will have to wait for reviews to see if this is really good or not. I think the new AMD APU will blow this out of the water though.
