What we're looking at here is - according to MSI - the thinnest 15-inch gaming notebook on the market, with a case that's just 19.9mm high with the lid closed. It's not quite the like-for-like challenger we would have wanted - it's a lot bigger for starters - but it's significantly more powerful than the last-gen Blade and a lot cheaper too. So the quest is on to find a suitable replacement, leading us to MSI's GS60 2PC Ghost. It's a fine machine, if slightly anaemic in terms of its graphics power (boosted considerably in its latest revision) and handicapped by an ultra-expensive price point - not to mention a lack of general availability outside North America.

It's been some time since we reviewed the Razer Blade 14 - a unique combination of gaming-grade Intel and Nvidia components somehow integrated into an ultra-slim laptop chassis highly reminiscent of the MacBook Pro.
