Agreed. All MSI laptops look the same, crap build quality, incredible specs.

Just a update as someone who actually owns this laptop and have longer than probably most people. MSI released a update for the track pad and it's finally working correctly. You can now hold and drag for as long as you want. Thank God! Unfortunately, if you do the update. All your bios settings will be lose. You will have to redo undervolt, redo memory 5600 setting, and all that. It's kinda annoying because you have to go thru like 8 different settings for all this but oh well. Now the laptop is flawless except for the atrocious battery life of course!

@iLegionaire3755

You don’t ever buy the MSI Titan 18 for battery life, just the full desktop level performance experience that’s portable. On this promise, MSI delivers. Also, if you buy a portable PSU, or generator, battery life is not a problem anymore. Get massive amounts of watts 1600W minimum for your MSI PSU and that 192 GB of 5500 Mhz DDR5 RAM! The fact that the standard charger for the Titan 18 HX is literally a 400W charger tells you all you need to know! MSI Titan 18 HX is the only laptop on the market with 192 GB max DDR5 RAM capacity.

This one was on the shortlist but after a lot of contemplation I went for the Alpha17CV and dropped 64GB in it and not regretted it, 32threads on the 7945HX with no efficiency cores to worry about so no need to shut those down in some games at less than a 3rd the price of this with a 240hz 1440 screen was hard to ignore at the price point..

Hey there, asus scar 18 14th gen vs msi titan 14th gen vs dekstop 14th gen processor with 4090 , make a full test video

I wonder why the results are so weak (relatively of course), considering the hardware and the temps it should outperform every other laptop, even the ones with the same specs since the increased tdp and yet it seems that sometimes it gets beaten by last year cpu with less power. I think there must be something wrong with the tuning or the softwer or the drivers in the titan series, maybe that's why the temps are so low (the cpu not going over 90 in a stress test with all that power it's wierd). Maybe the problem is just the ram, 3600 is very slow, other laptops reach 5200\5600 with ddr5 and unless you actually need large amounts of ram for specific tasks the speed of ram is much more important in gaming and application in general (you will never even fill 32 gb in gaming).

The only 4000MHz can pass the stability check And the Cinebench results are not much different from 3600/4600MHz DDR5

Thanks for the detailed as well honest review. My favorite gen is still GT75 from MSI: Gsync, 5 SSD slot, wonderful keyboard, true desktop replacement experience.
