MSI's GT75VR may not look like much but gots it where it counts

It's big, chunky and not really very good looking, but MSI's GT75VR packs impressive hardware inside its ugly chassis. It uses the latest Intel seventh-generation Core i7 processor and will have space for two -- yes two -- Nvidia GeForce GTX1070 discrete graphics in SLI configuration. It sports a 17.3-inch screen, with resolution of up to UHD levels (3,840x2,160 pixels).

The keyboard on the GT75VR isn't your typical membrane keyboard. Instead, the GT75VR packs a SteelSeries mechanical keyboard with RGB LED lighting.

Since there's plenty of space, there are also plenty of USB ports on both the left and right side. There's also an SD card reader.

It also features four 3.5 mm audio ports, one mic in, one line in, one line out and one headphone out. All your bases are covered, for sure.

And topping it all off are plenty of display output options, from DisplayPort, to HDMI to Thunderbolt 3. There's also a LAN port so you don't have to rely on cranky Wi-Fi for gaming.

The GT75VR is one of the few laptops with a HDD indicator light -- a rarity in today's modern laptops.
