We also use a Datacolor SpyderX Elite monitor calibration sensor and its software to measure a laptop screen's color saturation—what percentage of the sRGB, Adobe RGB, and DCI-P3 color gamuts or palettes the display can show—and its brightness in nits (candelas per square meter) at the screen's 50% and peak settings. In the MSI Katana GF66 (11UE) it has a peak power level of 85W, which is right in the middle of Nvidia’s range for this GPU. In terms of the power consumption, the laptop lies at a level that is below the average of gaming laptops.
Unfortunately, the size of the fairly smalltouchpad was not increased, but the touchpad responds to inputs flawlessly. Intel, the Intel Logo, Intel Inside, Intel Core, and Core Inside are trademarks of Intel Corporation or its subsidiaries in the U. Among gaming laptops, the case of the MSI Katana GF66 stands out particularly with its inconspicuousness. Due to the low color space coverage, even a calibration with CalMan and the X-Rite i1 Colorimeter will hardly bring any improvements. of the DCI-P3 color gamut, which is well below the 70% mainstream gaming laptop average, and at 247 nits of brightness in testing, the panel is middling compared to the average mainstream gaming laptop (303 nits).In terms of the computing performance, MSI has significantly upgraded the Katana GF66 we tested last year. Our test unit is equipped with an Intel Core i7-11800H processor, an NVIDIA®GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU,16 GB of DDR4-3200 RAM, and a 512-GB NVMe SSD.
That’s poor, and it means that this display can’t render the full range of colours used by today’s games. If you’re looking for a discrete laptop for gaming and maybe college, the MSI Katana GF66 extends that favor by opting to remain plain, with a plastic black lid and only an engraved MSI logo added to the lid. The Katana GF66 12UD-436 can run most AAA games comfortably at 1080p resolution, though not at the same frame rates as more expensive and more capable laptops such as the Asus ROG Strix G15 (AMD Ryzen 9; RTX 3070) or the Alienware M15 R6 (Intel Core i7-11800H; RTX 3080). com is a leading authority on technology, delivering lab-based, independent reviews of the latest products and services.But the poor screen and battery and the lack of features are a hindrance, and can be rectified by only spending a little more elsewhere. In " The Witcher 3," the frame rates dropped by more than 50 FPS (FHD/Ultra), after we unplugged the laptop. As for cooling, the Katana isn't a silent runner by any means, but its fans aren't distracting, and its chassis has no hotspots where you'd normally put your fingers. Our first test is UL's PCMark 10, which simulates a variety of real-world productivity and office workflows to measure overall system performance and also includes a storage subtest for the primary drive. The Katana GF66 scored well, hitting far above the 4,000 points we consider a sign of strong productivity performance.
That’s adequate for mainstream gaming and work, although a few game installs will see that SSD getting filled up quickly. At least, the WASD keys don't reach the highest temperatures in the device during the stress test, even if the more than 50 °C (122 °F) that we measured here aren't very inviting for long gaming sessions. Intel ® Core™ i7 processors and powered by NVIDIA ® GeForce RTX™ 30 series graphics, the Katana GF66 is optimized to unleash true performance during gameplay.Nothing has changed in the exterior of the elegant gaming laptop, and the design by Nagano Tsuyoshi was kept without any changes.

The long-term processor consumption lies at about 38 watts here, but the laptop is also able to increase this performance significantly during games or in other scenarios.
The performance in games and the benchmarks drops significantly to about one-third of the performance of running it in mains operation. Or maybe it's that lack of polish I've grown accustomed to seeing from MSI over years of testing the company's laptops. And the battery followed the same approach – good, not great, with a final time of 3 hours and 12 minutes. Both the tops and the edges of the keys are illuminated, and I like the futuristic font on the keycaps. There are no built-in biometric features, and the 720p webcam atop the display lacks a privacy shutter.However, once again we see the powerful influence of the TDP and TGP values on the computing performance. I didn't notice any tearing, hiccups or any other performance issues that made the GF66 a boring gaming experience. Having worked as a programmer for 20 years (medical devices, AI, data management systems), I've been following the computer scene for many years and especially enjoy finding out about new technology advances.
