MSI Raider GE68 release date rumors
A definitive MSI Raider GE68 release date has not yet been supplied by MSI, but word on the street is the we can expect to see the device come out in February, 2023. Ultrabookreview are the ones claiming this specifically, but their source for this information is unclear.
Whether or not these rumors are true, and whether we’ll see all specced versions of the MSI Raider GE68 released at the same time remains to be seen.
MSI Raider GE68 price rumors
It’s a bit hard to get any definitive information on pricing from MSI themselves at this time, but according to Ultrabookreview, the MSI Raider GE68HX price will start at $2,299 for the Intel Core i9, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD & RTX 4060 variant, with 1600p display.
The price of the RTX 4070 configuration with Intel Core i9, 32GB RAM, 2TB SSD will reportedly be for $2,699.
MSI Raider GE68 specifications
In what may be disappointing news to some, the GE68 doesn’t come with options for either the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 or RTX 4090 – for these most high-powered 40 series variants you’ll need to opt for the 17-inch MSI Raider GE78 instead.
