MSI has unveiled a new GP X series of Pro Gaming Laptops, continuing its tradition of innovation and redefining gaming performance. Today they launch the GP62X and GP72X Leopard series, both of which come with a very slender 120Hz 5ms screen, NVMe M.2 solid state drive and an updated SteelSeries RGB keyboard. In addition, the GP X series features MSI’s new Cooler Boost 4, which sports two fans and six separate heat pipes dedicated to both the CPU and GPU, increasing total airflow by more than 20 percent.

Both the MSI GP62X and GP72X Leopard gaming laptops are now available at a recommended retail price of $1,099 and $1,599 USD respectively. They can be purchased via Newegg, Amazon, Best Buy and Fry’s. Gameranx reviewed the MSI GT83VR earlier this year, which we thought was a brilliant alternative to a gaming desktop PC.
