MSI’s Titans have always represented the absolute most you can get in a laptop. Over time, however, they’ve been shrinking in size (and hand-in-hand with that, weight) in a way that the new GT77 Titan is actually a fairly compact laptop already. Inside it, though, is the most powerful mobile graphics card, the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti, and a Core i9-12900HX processor. Loud noise and high temperatures?
>Gamut, brightness and color difference
We measured the image properties of the display using the Datacolor Spyder5Elite color analyzer. The display is one of the key features of gaming laptops for a full travel experience. The new Titan features a large 17.3″ 4K display with 120Hz refresh rate. The manufacturer is rather skimpy on any other details on the product page, so it’s kind of safe to assume that we won’t get any more premium features like HDR.
We measured 100 % sRGB, 89 % AdobeRGB, 94 % DCI-P3 and 86 % NTSC coverage, which are definitely above average. Gamma is at 2.2 with zero deviation, and the 375 nits brightness doesn’t disappoint but doesn’t impress either. The average Delta E colour deviation is also very good at 1.81.
The panel of the test piece suffered from edge ligh bleed, which was also reflected in the uniformity tests. Unfortunately, that’s the price of LCD panels, and I would kind of expect OLED at the price of the laptop, which MSI itself already offers in other models.
wondering how this testing is done when everyone leave in spec 64gb ddr5 4800mhz when this laptop is not able to run 4800mhz with 2 and more inserted sticks. thats only possible with 1 stick. even msi realised this and removed it from spec. the memory is capable of 4800 in jedec 5 and 7 profile but doesnt have cmp profile and also laptop even in advanced menu doesnt have xmp profile listed just default and custom. any attempt to chamge to 4800 results in pc reitraining memory fail.its proven the xmp work if u buy different memory modules like crutial but u should not for pricetag of 5k euros. to be fair the 4000mhz is ok as its CL32 while 4800mhz would be CL 40 also during testing you should notice the gpu is runing pcie 40 x8 by design. thats not causing any performance issue as u r not able to saturate pcie 40×8 anyway but should be mentioned in my opinion.
Hello Martin, you are absolutely right. When checking the screenshots from tests I can confirm the GPU to be running PCIe 4.0 x8 and also the memory config to be 4000 MHz and CL32. We’ll check with the manufacturer why the 4800 MHz was advertised at it’s still shown at lot of eshops even at this moment.
