Product Overview

MSI GS66 Stealth 11UX is an ultra-thin 15.6-inch gaming laptop. Sharing much of the same features and specifications with the GS66 Stealth 10UX unveiled just months earlier at CES 2021, the 11UX version switches out the 10th-gen Intel CPU to an 11th-gen Tiger Lake chip.
As a result, the Thunderbolt port is upgraded to Thunderbolt 4. WiFi 6E and PCIe Gen4 are also new additions.
Another area where improvement can be found is the display. Now, the GS66 Stealth can be configured with the same set of display options available with the more powerful GE66 Raider, including a 4K panel that refreshes at 120Hz, two QHD ones at 165Hz and 240Hz respectively, and two FHD panels at 300Hz and 360Hz.
Like other 2021 MSI gaming laptops, the headline feature is NVIDIA's RTX 30-series graphics up to RTX 3080. Thanks to the new Ampere architecture, they are significantly more powerful and more efficient at the same time.
Last but not least, the GS66 Stealth comes with a SteelSeries keyboard with per-key RGB lighting.
Alongside the new GS66, MSI also refreshed its entire gaming laptop lineup with the new Tiger Lake processors.
