The MSI GS63VR Stealth Pro-002 is a powerful gaming laptop that has been praised for its fast Intel i7 processor, dedicated NVIDIA graphics and for its 120MHz display with an impressive 3ms response time. Being a high-end gaming laptop, it naturally features an NVIDIA GTX 1070 GPU and a fast 512GB SSD. However, the 1TB hard drive that runs alongside of the SSD is a slower 5400rpm version that is commonly found in budget laptops. But, this can easily be replaced with something way faster like a second SSD or a 7200rpm hard drive.
Pros
- Brilliant 120MHz display
- Thin and light
- Windows 10 Pro
- NVIDIA GTX 1070
Cons
- Higher price
- 5400rpm hard drive
- TN display
Bottom Line
The MSI GS63VR Stealth Pro-002 is a powerful gaming laptop that features an impressive display. However, for the price we would have expected a 7200rpm hard drive.

Critic Reviews

The MSI GS63VR Stealth is the first laptop I’ve seen using Nvidia’s GeForce GTX 1060, and I’m suitably impressed. In fact, I’m blown away by the amount of performance that can be squeezed into a laptop that’s actually portable.
