For the price a very good gaming machine, I’ve read the reviews and while assembly seems to be a issue at times I have a flawless machine. Only problem is I had to do some tweaking on the mystic lights to get them working otherwise it would be 5 stars. Highly recommend this machine just have it checked to ensure no hiccups

DO NOT I repeat DO NOT !!! buy this computer UNLESS you want to spend $350 or more on a bigger radiator, more fans, better pump, mother board. This machine is perfect for heating up your food if you do not have a microwave, unless you get the items listed above. That is what I had to do just to play Call of Duty Warzone. I was reaching 92-99 degrees Celsius while playing 15 -30 min. I called MSI up and MSI customer support does not know jack so I would not waste my time talking to them. I read all the positive and negative reviews after I bought this computer the only positive, I have to say about this computer is the graphics card that is all. You are better off building your own it will be a whole lot cheaper and worth it trust me despite all the other reviews.

So first off I don’t know much about PC’s beyond specs. That being said I can spot something out of place on the rig (as most people can). I took this computer home hooked it up and it was running 50-60 degrees Celsius with no load on it. I thought was strange but figured maybe it just runs a little warm and would install the extra Corsair fan I bought with it. I ran warzone on low settings locked at 150FPS and the cpu reaches heats upwards of 90 Celsius. I was shocked so I opened up the computer removed the cooler from the cpu to inspect the thermal paste. Looked fine so I reinstalled turned the fan settings off auto onto 50% to see if any changes (none). I then installed the Corsair fan on top to dissipate some heat out from the cpu and still nothing isles at slightly less 45-55 but still runs very hot when gaming on low settings even though the MSI website specifically says it’s stays well below recommended cpu temps. I am distraught and would not recommend this to anyone. Please do not buy this PC unless you want to spend another $200 upgrading the cooling system with a better AIO and all the stock MSI fans. But honestly for the money the IBUYPOWER HAS MUCH BETTER REVIEWS AND THE MOTHERBOARD CAN HANDLE MORE THAN 2600MHZ RAM. IT CAN DO I BELIVE UP TO 4300MHZ FAR BETTER DEAL IMO. Hope this helped someone out.

Everything was hitting reds on the hardware monitor after playing COD Warzone for about an hour. Similar reviews on this site and online forums - this desktop appears to need a better AIO cooler. Will return today.

Computer seemed to work ok for the first few weeks, then it started getting slow with occasional glitches. It was still usable, but the glitches got worse over time. Finally in the last few weeks it has been ungodly slow and was driving me nuts. I waited until the warranty expired (so as to not void it) which I saw was last month, then I decided to pull off a few parts to see why it kept overheating. SHOCKED!! Whoever built the system didn't even pull the sticker off the bottom of the cpu cooler! And this is not a thin sticker, it is like a patch for a rubber raft or air mattress! Never saw that before, I'm surprised it even ran at all. New thermal paste and new cooler doesn't stop it from overheating. Cooked CPU??Called MSI and of course it's out of warranty and I'll probably have to pay to fix whatever got damaged even because of their screw up. I included pictures of when I removed the cooler. Never buying an MSI product again.
