The laptop, which has been available in the Nepali market for some time, is currently enjoying a massive price drop. So, let’s go through the specs, features, and latest official price of MSI Pulse GL66 in Nepal.

MSI Pulse GL66 Overview:

Design and Display

MSI Pulse GL66 still sports the same old-school mean gaming laptop look. The chassis is made entirely out of plastic and is available in the “Titanium Gray” color option. It is specifically designed by Maarten Verhoeven. The design is said to be based on his vision of future fighters. Its chassis measures 359 x 259 x 23.95 mm and weighs around 2.3 kg.

Performance

MSI Pulse GL66 is equipped with the latest 11th-gen Tiger Lake-H series mobile processor. You can go all the way up to Core i7-11800H that features 8 cores and boasts a dual-core max turbo frequency of 4.6GHz. Compared to i7-10750H, this CPU boasts a performance boost of up to 40%.

Also, the L3 cache is twice as big here. Similarly, you can choose from three GPUs – RTX 3060 (85W), RTX 3050 Ti (60W), and RTX 3050 (60W). RTX 3060 even supports Dynamic Boost 2.0 technology.
