[USA-WA][H] MSI GS65 9SE 15.6" Laptop [W] Paypal, Local Cash

CLOSED

Sold to u/poopbuttTA

Fantastic portable gaming laptop. Bought new in Nov 2019. Rarely used, thought I would do more portable gaming and productivity. My work laptop is sufficient and I no longer need this nor use it.

The 240 Hz screen is absolutely marvelous. It is bright, colors are beautiful, and smooth as butter. If you intend on using the laptop screen itself, it really makes this laptop shine. The i7 is pretty powerful for the small size of this laptop so I've undervolted to reduce CPU throttling and extend the laptop's life. I'm happy to share my Throttlestop profiles with you and I've confirmed improved performance through some moderate testing. It has been stable and sufficient for me but you could possibly improve slightly on it.

SPECS:

Intel i7 @ 2.6GHz

RTX2060 6GB, 1080 15.6" IPS 240Hz

512GB SSD (Toshioba KBG30ZMV512G) + 2TB SSD (Mushkin MKNSSDPE2TB-D8)

I added the 2TB. MSI chose to put the 2nd M.2 slot on the TOP side of the board. I work as an electrical engineer so you can know I did this addition with approx 9 yrs professional hands-on PCB/electronics experience.

32GB RAM

30fps@720p Webcam

Size: 4.18 lbs, 0.7" thick

I/O Ports:

1x RJ45

1x (4K @ 60Hz) HDMI

1x Type-C (USB3.2 Gen2 / DP / Thunderbolt™3)

2x Type-A USB3.2 Gen1

I bought this laptop from a guy on here a few weeks ago in an 8750h/2060/144hz variant. I repasted mine because it was literally burning me lol and added ram, m.2, etc

After setting about -125mv offset in throttlestop and setting max turbo to 39 all core it gets to about 85c playing the new modern warfare 2 at about 100fps (this is pretty damn good by laptop standards, especially how small this thing is).

This thing kicks ass and anyone who takes the time to tune it will have a badass laptop.
