Do you want a gaming laptop that stands out at a LAN, or when you take it to your friend’s house, or are suddenly promoted and need to do presentations at work?<\/p>\n

If you answered yes, we have a suggestion: the MSI GS60 Ghost Gold Limited Edition<\/strong> gaming laptop.<\/p>\n

The first thing you will notice is that the laptop is, as the name suggest, gold in colour. Secondly, once again as the name suggests, it is a limited edition.<\/p>\n

Our mates over at Evetech<\/a> said only 5 units are coming into SA, so stocks really are limited.<\/p>\n

Before we get into the specs and details, we have to get the small matter of the price out of the way. How much does a limited edition gold laptop cost? R26,999<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Take a look at the table, below, for the major specs of the golden beauty. Worth noting is the 3K display, which gives gamers a 2880 x 1620 resolution on the 15.6-inch screen.<\/p>\n

The gold Ghost also features an\u00a0Intel i7-4710HQ processor, an Nvidia GeForce GTX870M 3GB, and 16GB of DDR3 RAM.<\/p>\n

Besides the impressive specs, the GS60 allows you to connect up to 3 external displays simultaneously, has dual-fan cooling, and Dynaudio speakers built in.<\/p>\n

The usual W-Fi, Ethernet, Bluetooth, HDMI, and USB 3 functionality is also included, along with a customisable SteelSeries designed keyboard.<\/p>\n

MSI take pride in the laptops size, too, punting it as the “thinnest and lightest” 15.6-inch gaming notebook on the market. From the pictures posted below, it does look rather skinny.<\/p>\n
