The MMSI GL76 12UGSZOK-614FR Pulse vs. the competition

The MSI GL76 12UGSZOK-614FR Pulse is currently available at Cdiscount and offers an interesting configuration/price ratio for its category where it is one of the only ones to offer such a high frequency screen with such a recent processor (Alder Lake) and powerful.

If this MSI GL76 12UGSZOK-614FR Pulse does not meet all your criteria, you will find on our laptop gamer guide other configurations to play with a similar budget. For the same budget, choose the model that has the most powerful graphics card, it is it that will have the most impact on performance.

With its dark Titanium Gray design with angular lines and geometric patterns on the hull, this versatile gamer-oriented and creative laptop has a gamer look and is cooled by Cooler Boost 5 technology via 2 fans, 6 heat pipes and ventilation grilles.

The connectivity integrated into this gaming laptop creator is good, including 1 US-C (but not Thunderbolt, too bad!), wireless modules Bluetooth 5.2 and Wi-Fi 6E ax (newer and more powerful than Wi-Fi ac) to communicate and connect remotely, a useful HDMI video output to easily connect this computer to a TV or monitor for example, Ethernet and audio ports but also 3 USB including 2 USB 3.0 (USB 2.0 compatible) guaranteeing transfers up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if USB 3.0 devices are plugged in.

We can obviously backlight the keys of the chiclet keyboard to better discern them in the dim light. This keyboard has been designed with the help of SteelSeries to best adapt to the habits of gamers.

Thanks to its high 360Hz frequency, the screen enhances fluidity in games compared to the 60Hz standard which will interest players. The screen also has significant vertical and horizontal viewing angles thanks to its IPS technology also ensuring a more faithful than average colorimetry. With its 16:9 aspect ratio and Full HD definition, the screen also lends itself very well to the display of videos and more broadly High Definition content. Anti-reflective, the screen also offers better visibility than a shiny slab in bright environments (e.g. outdoors) while being more restful for the eyes in prolonged use.

Performance, autonomy of the MSI GL76 12UGSZOK-614FR Pulse

The MSI GL76 12UGSZOK-614FR Pulse targets those who want to invest in a versatile 17-inch laptop that performs well in gaming and creation.

As it embeds one of the most powerful high-end mobile graphics cards of the moment, the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti ray tracing, this gaming laptop creator of large format is able to run recent and greedy games at a good level of detail.

In practice, the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti ray tracing is enabled by Optimus technology to perform graphics work deemed too heavy for the Iris Xe, a graphics solution housed within the processor, typically for gaming. With one or the other of these graphics modules, it is of course possible to watch photos and videos but also to run modest games.

The Iris Xe is preferred to the maximum by Optimus despite its much more modest performance in comparison because it consumes little energy which promotes autonomy.
In this regard, count on about 6 hours of operation on battery in light use.

The Iris Xe is directly integrated into the Intel Alder Lake-H Core i9-12900H hybrid processor, one of the most high-end of the moment too. As it is associated with 16 GB of RAM, we obtain an overall power able to seduce demanding users.

This heart that supports the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti ray tracing in games will also interest creators. Because it guarantees much faster processing than a conventional Quad/Hexa/Octo Core processor and 8 GB DDR4, the difference being particularly noticeable in CPU and RAM intensive areas exploiting multi-cores. This is for example the case in video editing, 3D rendering or photo editing.

Creatives will also appreciate that the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti accelerates processing under software that takes advantage of GPU computing power, such as Adobe Premiere/Photoshop or Sony Vegas.

On the storage side, there is a comfortable 1 TB SSD to house multiple games, software and files including personal production. In addition, an SSD offers several advantages compared to a hard drive: greater shock resistance, quiet operation, lower power consumption and greater velocity.

As a result, the SSD guarantees a faster arrival on the cards of online games or even much faster game/software launches, processing and start/stop. More generally, the SSD ensures a much better responsiveness and fluidity in use than a simple hard drive.
Let’s mention the storage scalability of this versatile multimedia creator gaming laptop because it has a free M.2 slot to add a second SSD as needed.

Finally, expect that in case of high demands (eg games, treatments), this versatile laptop designed to play and create is heard and heated.
