The fans are loud when they're running on high but it's a gaming laptop so it's expected. I always run an external fan underneath my gaming laptops to help cool, and this laptop does get hot near the back.
Overheating and Melting:
The cooling system of the GE66 Raider is woefully inadequate for its powerful components. The laptop has consistently overheated during gaming sessions, causing the chassis to become extremely hot to the touch. I monitored the temperatures with a program and noticed that both the GPU and CPU regularly hit their thermal throttle during gaming. Even when not under heavy load, the laptop remained uncomfortably hot. To mitigate this issue, I used ThrottleStop to disable turbo boosting, which significantly reduced performance but allowed the laptop to idle at a more reasonable temperature.
Fan Failures:
Within just a few months of owning the laptop, I experienced multiple fan failures. The fans became incredibly noisy and, at times, stopped functioning altogether. This only exacerbated the overheating issue and necessitated multiple RMA processes. Ideally, I would have preferred to replace the fans myself without sending the laptop for RMA, but the laptop's design makes it impossible to do so without dismantling the entire chassis and reapplying thermal pads.
Multiple RMA Processes:
I had to send my laptop for repair under warranty multiple times due to the issues mentioned above. Each time, I was without my laptop for weeks, causing significant inconvenience and frustration. Despite assurances from customer support that the issues were fixed, I continued to experience the same problems, which led me to question the quality of their repair service.
Lack of Durability:
The GE66 Raider is marketed as a high-quality gaming laptop, but its performance does not match the price tag. The constant overheating, fan failures, and need for multiple repairs have left me feeling that the product is not durable or reliable enough for the long term. After my first RMA, the keyboard failed, forcing me to purchase an external keyboard. I suspect the high levels of heat or a mistake by the repair service caused the keyboard issue.
Conclusion:
I cannot recommend the GE66 Raider to anyone in search of a reliable gaming laptop. The ongoing issues with overheating and fan failures, coupled with the frustration of dealing with multiple RMA processes, have left me disappointed and regretful of my purchase. I hope the manufacturer addresses these issues in future models, but for now, I would advise potential buyers to look elsewhere for a more reliable and durable option.
Now, my laptop requires repairs again, and I've been informed it is no longer under warranty. This means I will not only have to pay for an expensive shipping label but also face high repair costs for issues that should not be occurring every 3-4 months. I paid thousands of dollars for a top-of-the-line laptop and received nothing but ongoing costs and problems. As a result, I will not be using an MSI product again.
