MSI Pulse GL76 11UEK-009XEN

Meets the expectations of an experienced gamer

Ordered Monday 07/03/2022 and received just this morning (2 days delivery).

Everything is perfect, the computer well packed and intact.
I am very pleased with the service and the quality of the product.

I installed Windows 10 by bootable USB key, I had some difficulties but everything was quickly resolved thanks to guides found on the web.

The computer meets my expectations perfectly, it is fast, powerful and efficient.

So far no problems with overheating. I have tried League of Legends, Fortnite, PUBG, World of Warcraft and Valorant, everything is perfect. The DLSS mode on Fornite surprised me, I hit my first Top 1 after my second game (the time of readjustment) playing in medium quality with an average of 150 FPS.

The 144Hz screen is a life changer for me, I've always been on 60Hz and this one suits me perfectly, it's anti-glare and that's great for me as I often let the sun in the room. The colours are clean and everything looks good.

You shouldn't expect to play the latest games at max quality either, but everything is largely playable at medium quality, and for the more avid gamers, it is possible to play at max quality but well below 144 FPS.

I tried to run several applications and downloads at the same time, everything was pretty smooth except when I tried to install 3 games, different web browsers and a game running all at the same time to test the power of the i7 11800H with its 16GB of RAM. There were some minor slowdowns, but that's perfectly normal as I tried to push the performance to the max to see if there would be any overheating and freezes.
The CPU got up to 96°C max and I could hear the fans starting to spin harder. Everything remained normal and the computer was still largely usable.

I would recommend this computer without hesitation.

Performance is present but lacks ergonomics

Benefits :
- Great performance
- Aesthetically beautiful
- Rather light (I go from a 4Kg gamer laptop)
- Promotion on it

Disadvantages :
- Only 1 video output (1 HDMI)
- USB-C only DATA not DisplayPort compatible
- Notebook keyboard (missing keys compared to standard keyboard), no home/end keys, pause key (FN+P)
- Battery not removable (battery life 0)
- Access to battery, RAM, hard disk (forced to remove the whole plate)

I'm keeping the PC, but if I had known all this before, I would have chosen another one.
I'm not really a Gamer PC, for that, we should at least have been able to remove the battery to leave it on mains without damaging the battery and have two video outputs, having a usb-c only data type in 2022 is ridiculous.
I'm not sure how much I'd like to see in the future, but I'm sure it's a good idea.

I was forced to buy a docking station as well, that makes the price go up quickly.

Ps: be careful about USB standards, this order was my lesson.

Product in good condition but delivery time a bit long

At a time when some e-commerce giants take 48 hours or even 24 hours to deliver a product, I find that LDLC's delivery times are a bit long. It took no less than 72 hours to unpack my PC. So of course it's not the end of the world and I will continue to support this local brand, but unfortunately I think that not everyone will have the same patience as me and will be convinced by the much shorter delivery times of the competition, which will create an inexorable erosion of customers.
