Sure, I've seen the game run even faster on last year's GS66, which had a 300Hz 1080p display. The fluidity of the gameplay made it easier for me to line up sniper shots or just wreak havoc as Junkrat. In Overwatch, I reached around 175FPS on average with epic graphics settings in 1440p. ![]() The more data, the smoother everything looks. ![]() That 240Hz figure means the screen can display up to four times as many frames every second, compared to standard 60Hz monitors. As soon as I got the GS66, equipped with NVIDIA's RTX 3080 mobile GPU, Intel's i7-10870H CPU and 16GB of RAM, I promptly installed Overwatch to see just how well its 240Hz 1440p screen performed. And while fan noise is something every PC gamer has to deal with, the GS66's cooling system was far louder than most.īut let's start with the good stuff first. That's the cost of cramming so much hardware into a thin notebook. But I came across one major downside: tons of fan noise. So take this new screen tech, more power and the relatively slim design of the GS66 altogether, and it seems like a winner, right?įor the most part, yes. The MSI GS66 Stealth, and other notebooks sporting 1440p, also supports fast refresh rates to make gameplay look silky smooth. ![]() For the last few years, laptop gamers could choose from low-resolution, 1080p screens with fast refresh rates, or 4K displays that pack in a ton of pixels, but also require a ton of power to render games.ġ440p is a nice middle ground: It's sharper than 1080p, but isn't as demanding as 4K. It's powered by NVIDIA's new RTX 30-series GPUs, and it's one of the first gaming notebooks with a 1440p (or 2K) screen.
