  1. Hi Linus, I've been thinking of upgrading to a new MSI laptop as a desktop replacement for mobility needs. I was looking at the offerings on NCIX and from what I noticed, the GS60 Pro model has similar specs to the cheaper GT60 with a few differences. Namely the GT60 is much cheaper, far heavier, lacks an SSD but has a better processor (maybe?). I've noticed the GT60 also only has one fan for cooling, whereas the GS60 has two. How does the heating between the two stack up? A review I watched of the GT60 pegged the max GPU temp at around low-to-mid 70s. CPU was in or around there, maybe 60s. So, I guess my question is this. Both GS60 models are more expensive than the base GT60 model. Likely due to form factor and internals (SSDs and whatnot). What do you think would be a better buy for value? The GT60 is cheaper at 1600 dollars, but it's significantly heavier and to be honest doesn't seem as sleek. Does the 860m on the non-pro GS60 take that much of a performance hit compared to the 870m in the GT60 and GS60 pro?
