Sign of the times. This was $50 cheaper back In Feb (though that was without Outrider). But with most new generation laptops MIA and deals drying up, this is still a good deal.
Unlike most 10th Gen Intel laptops, MSI allows undervolting. I bought one and did the UV and OC and will try to answer any questions you have. UV makes a big difference on the CPU (runs faster at 45W than it did at 55W stock), and you can run it maxed out at 4.3GHz on all cores indefinitely if you have some workloads that need it. I boosted GPU performance >10% as well, using Afterburner. https://www.techpowerup
As always from Costco:
90 day free returns.
2 year warranty (4 if you use their card).
Specs here (this is the 008 model): https://us.msi.com/Laptop/GE75-Ra...cification
Some things I like:
1) 17.3" 1080p display, 144Hz, >300nits, 3ms response, high contrast, 100% sRGB.
2) RTX 2060 is 115W, which means it's ~15% faster than 80W 2060s and 1660 Ti, and faster than many 2070 and 3060 laptops that are throttled to a lower wattage.
3) MSI supports UV on Intel CPUs which makes them much more competitive vs Ryzen. With the UV it's faster than a 4600H in Cinebench.
4) It has great speakers for a laptop
5) You can install two NVMe drives as well as a 2.5" drive.
6) Costco warranty and return policy!

You can, and should turn silent mode on in the settings and most games will run really well. I haven't played any games that don't run well in silent mode. I haven't looked at my clock in silent mode so I don't know what % it cuts the clock down.
I'm still using my Acer 9805WKHI with the 20 inch display that I bought in 2006 and it went with me to Iraq and performed well. Its kinda slow nowadays. I will get another one soon but I was waiting for the 17 inch LG Gram. Mine is kinda old now.
Today, this seemingly excellent deal from Costco dropped:
https://www.costco.com/msi-gf75-t...79310.html [costco.com] . That's $800 + tax before a $200 costco cash card, for net $600 + tax if you value the costco rebate at par.
My question is can all these same tricks (UV, fan silencing, etc.) be used on this cheaper MSI gaming laptop product? TIA.
What is the case construction on these?
Pro
Silent Option is a MSI app so should work with the GF.
That's a good deal from Costco, especially if you already have the card. You should post it up here on SD.

CPU UV and setting control using Throttlestop.
GPU UV and OC and setting control using Afterburner.
Fan control using Silent Option.
Dragon Center is disabled (might just uninstall it).
I have 4 different profiles set up in TS and AB, and can switch between them easily. You can run faster, cooler, and quieter, and have total control over these variables. If you plan on using this for a few years it's worth the time to set it up.

My fans are silent with light loads because I set them to stay off using Silent Option's custom fan curves.
As for the screen, it is pretty great. Have it side by side with an ultra wide, neither looks washed out and very close color reproduction. Whoever think this screen is bad must spend 2500 bucks on a laptop.
