The new Pulse GL, Sword, and Katana GF visual images, designed by international graphic artists, round out the lineup.

The world’s thinnest 0.1mm sharp-edged fan blade design and MSI’s exclusive Cooler Boost Technology ensure optimal thermal dissipation for the best possible experience when running heavy architectural applications.
