The MSI GS66 Stealth is a thin, light gaming laptop with a black chassis and a 15.6-inch QHD display. The display has a 165Hz refresh rate and a 3ms response time. It runs an 11th Gen Intel Core i9 processor with 8 cores and up to 4.9GHz dual core turbo frequency. Graphics come from an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080.
Graphics can be switched between Discrete Graphics Mode and MSHybrid Graphics Mode (NVIDIA Optimus). The GPU core clock and VRAM frequency can be adjusted for overclocking in MSI Center. The RTX 30 Series GPU supports ray tracing and DLSS. Dynamic Boost 2.0 shifts power between the GPU, GPU memory and CPU. Cooler Boost Trinity+ cooling uses fan blades that are 0.1 mm thick.
The per-key RGB keyboard is by SteelSeries and has 1.5mm of key travel. Sound comes from front-firing Dynaudio speakers with Nahimic 3 audio, and the laptop supports Hi-Resolution Audio. An infrared camera works with Windows Hello for face unlock.
