MSI Gets Its Ghost Recon: Wildlands On With Camo Squad Motherboards, Graphics Cards And Laptops At PAX East

This past weekend, the HotHardware team hit up PAX East in Boston, Massachusetts. We could not leave without checking out the MSI booth. We were fortunate enough to have Lenny Tang, associate marketing manager of MSI, give us a tour of the company’s latest Camo Squad limited edition gaming laptops, motherboards and graphics cards.

MSI’s Camo Squad designed gaming products are being brought to market by the company in honor of the release of Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands. The design is unique to MSI and was created through “delicate craftsmanship”. Fans can pick up a GE62VR 7RF Camo Squad gaming notebook with a GeForce GTX 1060 on board or a GE62 7RE Camo Squad notebook with a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti under the hood. The company also has a Z270 Camo Squad motherboard and a Camo Squad GeForce GTX 1060 6GB graphics card on tap as well.
