“GS30 Shadow is designed for mobile gamers who don’t want to compromise between portability and performance. With its incredible thin and insanely powerful, MSI wants to create new style of this performance machine not only for gamers, but for some stylish and cutting edge fashion users,” says Eric Kuo, vice president of global sales and marketing, MSI Notebook.
Additionally, MSI has developed a specific GamingDock for the GS30 Shadow laptop that features a PCI-e x16 slot for a graphics card, DVI and HDMI outputs, and audio jacks. “Users can choose any desktop graphics card, which is stronger and more powerful, then easily insert into it to unleash the most stunning visual effect and deliver the most exciting gaming experience to gamers by full bandwidth of PCI-e x16,” states MSI.
