Lisa Gade reviews the MSI GS40-6QE Phantom, a powerhouse gaming laptop with NVIDIA GTX 970M 3GB DDR dedicated graphics and a quad core CPU in a 14” chassis. The 3.5 lb. Phantom is something of an engineering marvel— it fits a tremendous amount of horsepower in a thin and light notebook that looks more like an Ultrabook.

It has an Intel Skylake 6th generation 2.6 GHz Core i7-6700HQ CPU— a quad core 45 watt CPU generally found in 15-17” high end laptops. It has 16 gigs of DDR4 RAM in two slots, a 128 gig M.2 PCIe SSD and a 1TB 7,200 RPM HDD.

Our unit came from XOTICPC.com and has their customized lid decal and a 512 gig Samsung 950 Pro NVMe SSD upgrade (they offer a variety of customizations and upgrades for the gaming laptops they sell) . Other goodies include a bright IPS 1920 x 1080 matte display, Killer WiFi 1525 802.11ac and ethernet, a 1080p webcam, backlit red keyboard and a USB-C 3.1/Thunderbolt 3 port. It sells for $1,599.
