![]() The true measure of a gaming desk isn’t just how it feels when you first sit down-it’s how it helps you game longer. Whether adjustable in height or not, there are gaming desks in a wide range of sizes-from a minimum height of 29 ½” to as high as 57 ½” (with shelving).Ĭhoose wide and deep desks with enough room to easily accommodate everything you need to game, from multiple gaming monitors to cams, keyboards, and mouse pads, as well as your speakers and headphones. Or choose desks with legs whose height can be adjusted manually from 27 to 30”. Consider preset “sweet spots” your comfort zones for different types of gaming that can keep you playing longer. Find gaming desks with electronically adjustable height that can be adjusted from 29 to 47” or pre-set to four different height positions that you can easily change to. Taking your game to the next level is easy with loads of smart design features, including adjustable push-of-a-button height that allows you to always sit or stand at exactly where you want to be. Put a gaming desk made in collaboration with Republic of Gamers (ROG) at the centerpiece of your gaming setup. Enjoy features tailored to your specific gaming needs that maximizes space while keeping you comfortable and going strong through marathon gaming sessions. The use of glossy plastic in certain areas further detracts from the build quality, but that's just our personal observation.Raise your game with gaming desks as customizable as any game mod. Our main gripe was that when typing, we felt that the keyboard did not feel solid enough, as there was noticeable flex. ![]() As for overall build quality, we found the MSI GE40 to be decent but far from fantastic. Overall, the notebook looks reasonable, but it isn't exactly eye-catching - other than when it's powered up. The lid and palm rest are both crafted out of aluminum. Off the top of our heads, only the new Razer Blade possesses slimmer dimensions and a lower weight, but they don't differ by much.Īs for the MSI GE40, it achieves its low weight thanks to its extensive use of aluminum. The unit is under 30mm thick and weighs just 1.9kg, making it one of the thinnest and lightest gaming notebook around at the moment. That said, the highlight of the MSI GE40 must be its slimness and weight. The MSI GE40 also features MSI’s Matrix Display technology, which lets users output to an additional two displays simultaneously via the notebook’s HDMI and VGA ports. Although this is not an IPS display, we found that it offered good viewing angles and colors were sufficiently brilliant. On the flip side of the lid is 14-inch HD+ matte display that has a native resolution of 1600 x 900 pixels. Although a little gimmicky, this little design cue does breath some life into an otherwise uninteresting-looking notebook. On the lid are two slits of perforated holes that light up to look like the eyes of a dragon when the notebook is turned on. The MSI GE40 is so- called because of the special deisgn on its lid. Here's a video preview to whet your appetite:. Considering that under the hood of this 14-inch notebook is also NVIDIA’s latest GeForce GTX 760M GPU, two 64GB mSATA SSDs in a RAID 0 configuration and a 750GB HDD, this is a pretty impressive achievement. Thanks to the processor’s relatively low TDP (for a quad-core processor), MSI has managed to cram it into a body that is just 29mm thick at its thickest point and weighs just 1.9kg. This is a fairly high-end processor that runs at 2.2GHz, supports Hyper-Threading and has a large 6MB 元 cache with integrated Intel HD 4600 Graphics. ![]() Specifically, the notebook is powered by the new Core i7-4702MQ processor, which has a TDP of 37W, making it Intel’s lowest TDP quad-core mobile processor. Which brings us nicely to the new MSI GE40 2OC Dragon Eyes (henceforth known simply as MSI GE40), which is part of MSI’s G-series gaming series and has Intel’s latest fourth generation Core processor under its hood. This is exactly the change that's happening right now with products like convertible and hybrid Ultrabooks and ultra-slim gaming notebooks. ![]() All this means you stand to get slimmer and lighter notebook. Also with more efficient components, notebook manufacturers need not integrate large batteries into their machines. If a new notebook boasts a lower TDP than a previous generation, it means that the notebook does not have to dissipate that much heat (thanks to more efficient components) and it can do with simpler heatsinks and lesser fans (or even no fans in some cases). TDP is important in a notebook design because it refers to the maximum amount of heat the cooling system in the notebook would need to dissipate. Crucially, more efficient processors means more performance at a given TDP (thermal design power). ![]() And this has had a major effect on notebooks design and specifications. With each passing generation, processors have become more power efficient. ![]()
