We see a lot of brand new products and crazy innovations at the International CES in Las Vegas every year and this year is no exception. You’ve seen some of the posts here and on Futurelooks already, and we’ll have some great video coverage coming too, but when we went over to see MSI, they had a “secret weapon” that they wanted to show us and it’s pretty awesome.

It doesn’t have a name (yet), but this 15.4-inch notebook borrows much of its design inspiration from the award-winning MSI GS70 Stealth. We assume that it will have more of a gaming focus to it, but this has to be one of the thinnest and lightest notebooks of its kind. You get a great aluminum construction and a premium-kind of feel. It’ll likely come with the same kinds of bells and whistles we’ve come to expect from MSI’s gaming notebook lineup.

The prototype version does demonstrate that MSI wants this thin and light gaming notebook to be special, including the lines on either side of the keyboard that mirror the design style of the lid. Specs are still up in the air and so is pricing, but we are told that the unnamed machine should arrive later this year.
