Experience Full HD on a 17.3" display with the WT72 2OL-1246 17.3" Mobile Workstation from MSI. The screen has a 16:9 aspect ratio and a 1920 x 1080 native resolution, which can play back 1080p content without upscaling or letterboxing. The visuals are handled by a dedicated NVIDIA Quadro K4100M graphics card with 4GB of GDDR5 discrete memory.

The system is powered by a quad-core 4th generation Haswell 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7-4720HQ processor. It also has 16GB of 1600 MHz DDR3L RAM, a 1TB 7200 rpm hard drive, a 128GB mSATA solid state drive, a Blu-ray Disc burner, a Secure Digital (SD/SDHC/SDXC) media card reader, 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet, dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, and an integrated webcam with a microphone. The built-in Dynaudio premium speakers and subwoofer utilize Sound Blaster Cinema technology. The MSI WT72 runs on the Windows 7 Professional operating system.

Quad-Core 4th-Gen Haswell Intel Core i7 Performance

The WT72 houses a powerful yet low voltage Intel Core i7-4720HQ processor. Its quad cores can run at 2.6 GHz. It can also be overclocked up to 3.6 GHz, thanks to Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 technology. The quad cores can also be pushed to 8 virtual threads for added performance. The 16GB of 1600 MHz DDR3L RAM memory ensures that programs open quickly so you can start working with minimum loading times.

NVIDIA Quadro K4100M Graphics

The WT72 features a dedicated NVIDIA Quadro K4100M graphics card with 4GB of GDDR5 discrete memory. The K4100M also provides the NVIDIA Kepler architecture, which introduces the concept of bindless textures and enables the GPU to reference textures directly from memory. This effectively eliminates the limit on the number of unique textures that can be used to render a scene and reduce CPU overhead to improve performance. Fast approximate anti-aliasing (FXAA) and temporal anti-aliasing (TXAA) film-style techniques give high image quality for content creation without compromising the interactive experience. You'll also gain access to NIVIDA CUDA, SMX, GPU tessellation with Shader Model 5.0, 16K texture and render processing, multi-display support, and more.

17.3" Full HD Anti-Reflective Display

The 17.3" widescreen display has a 16:9 aspect ratio and a 1920 x 1080 native resolution, which can play back Full HD 1080p content without upscaling or letterboxing. The screen also has an anti-reflective, matte finish, which helps reduce glare. You can also output video to an external display via the HDMI port.

Killer E2200 Game Networking

Designed with exclusive networking optimizations, Killer E200 Game Networking features 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet for superior control over your bandwidth. Killer E2200 Game Networking gives you the hardware and software technology for your WT72's Ethernet connection.

question

Could I install Mac OS X on this?
Asked by: Anonymous
I do not have experience with OS X, but I did install Fedora Core 24, and added a Samsung NVMe SSD. With Linux there were some issues with the colored keyboard and screen brightness, but out of the box it is an awesome laptop. See if there is OS X support for the Steelseries keyboard . Wish I could try a Live OS X ! BTW, delivery perfect and on time !
