MSI GT70 0NC 17.3″ Laptop Review (i7 3610QM / GTX 670M)

CyberLink MediaEspresso 6 is the successor to CyberLink MediaShow Espresso 5.5. With its further optimized CPU/GPU-acceleration, MediaEspresso is an even faster way to convert not only your video but also your music and image files between a wide range of popular formats.

Now you can easily playback and display your favourite movies, songs and photos not just on your mobile phone, iPad, PSP, Xbox, or Youtube and Facebook channels but also on the newly launched iPhone 4. Compile, convert and enjoy images and songs on any of your computing devices and enhance your videos with CyberLink’s built-in TrueTheater Technology.

New and Improved Features

  • Ultra Fast Media Conversion – With support from the Intel Core i-Series processor family, ATI Stream & NVIDIA CUDA, MediaEspresso’s Batch-Conversion function enables multiple files to be transcoded simultaneously.
  • Smart Detect Technology – MediaEspresso 6 automatically detects the type of portable device connected to the PC and selects the best multimedia profile to begin the conversion without the need for user’s intervention.
  • Direct Sync to Portable Devices – Video, audio and image files can be transferred in a few easy steps to mobile phones including those from Acer, BlackBerry, HTC, Samsung, LG, Nokia, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, and Palm, as well as Sony Walkman and PSP devices.
  • Enhanced Video Quality – CyberLink TrueTheater Denoise and Lighting enables the enhancement of video quality through optical noise filters and automatic brightness adjustment.
  • Video, Music and Image File Conversion – Convert not only videos to popular formats such as AVI, MPEG, MKV, H.264/AVC, and FLV at the click of a button, but also images such as JPEG and PNG and music files like WMA, MP3 and M4A.
  • Online Sharing – Conversion to video formats used by popular social networking websites and a direct upload feature means posting videos to Facebook and YouTube has never been easier.

For our testing today we are converting a 4.4GB 720p MKV file (1h:58mins) to Apple Mp4 format for playback on a portable device. This is a common procedure for many people and will give a good indication of system power. We are using the newest version which has been optimised for Sandybridge processors.

Hardware acceleration is enabled.

Converting a 4.4GB 720P MKV file in 5 minutes and 34 seconds shows that the Core i7 3610QM is an excellent media-converter with GPU acceleration enabled. As a comparison, the same file took 3 times longer to convert on an i7 2600K-based desktop system.

  1. This system exposes a problem with nvidia mobile pricing right now. the 7970m is cheaper than the GTX680m and faster, never mind the 670m.

  2. The only issue with the 7970m is the noise and heat it generates. ive heard several laptops using it and they get very very loud when gaming.

  3. I’m quite sure the one shown is the GT780, not the GT70. The GT70 has a very boring design, and the 0nC/0nD are slim.
    Either way, it is pretty much my dream machine – 17″ and fast enough for games.
    After getting my current 17″, I don’t want to go any smaller, although it’s no good with games.

  4. My bad… I was thinking of the GE range… then again, the GT60’s look like the GE60’s and GE70’s while the GT70 and GT780 look like the GTX683 without the lights. Confusing..

  5. (didnt read the whole article)

    According to a website, the GTX 670M is not a Kepler based GPU, this is still a Fermi graphicscard, bigger DIE, less powerful etc..

    GTX 670M = GTX 570M (Bad MSi!!!)
