  • Rated 5 out of 5 stars

    Excellent so far!

    Fantastic! I knew I wanted another MSI as my og one from 2017 is still kicking and can run older games like a charm, but I knew I wanted to get something a bit more updated that could last me another 10 years, and this one definitely hits all the marks. Is she a little on the heavier side? Yeah, but I'm not really carrying this around all too often so it doesn't bother me much. The updated fans/cooling system is fantastic in comparison to my older one, the automatic fan booster while I'm gaming is genuinely so much better.

    Replacement Sadness

    Great product, but it is not what we originally purchased. The GeekSquad could fix the no changing issue, and our son started back to college, so they just replaced it with a lower-level system
