Customers are impressed with the Aegis R Gaming Desktop's performance and graphics card, frequently citing smooth gameplay and excellent visuals. Many also appreciate the quiet operation and ease of setup. However, some users reported high CPU temperatures, particularly during gaming, and a few experienced issues with the included mouse and the placement of USB ports.
Big fan of this unit. Bought it new curbside pick up, works like a dream only had to fidget a few settings around (still learning so could be me, just wish I could turn off the LED lights it's not my fav). Pros for me: -Big case easy upgrade. -Nice 2070 graphics card & i7 processer will last you through this next gen, maybe not premium ultra graphics but clean and beautiful High-Epic on most games 60fps minimum. Cons for me: -Unnecessary lights everywhere, wonder how much I'd have saved without them. -While playing Ark:Survival evolved on max settings after about 2 hours, this thing gets HOT, placing a fan on it for a temp fix rn, *upgrade your cooling hardware pronto. Trust me* Overall, I'd buy this again 99% happy! Minus the lights and add an upgraded cooling unit and this PC is worth it 100%

This PC is pretty solid for what you are paying for. Has 1TB SSD AND 1TB HDD. Very quiet when playing games like MW, Apex, or Valorant. Only thing I suggest is that you are paying $1400 + tax on a pre-built PC. Invest an extra $150 and buy the Corsair H100i cooling unit. This PC has an i7 (which yes does NOT need to be liquid cooled) but it is HIGHLY SUGGESTED by intel. When I play games it does get a bit warm but nothing too hot. Last thing is that the tower is really big and has a lot of room for upgrades in the future. This PC is the way to go, give it a chance!

Spent a lot of time looking at pre-built desktop specs, and this MSI Aegis R Desktop was the best bang for the buck sweet spot out there! First, it has an NVidea RTX 2070 8GB video card, where most at this price point had the 1660-series, Plus, it had an M.2 NVMe 1TB SSD drive, most others only had 256GB or 512GB, and almost all others at this price point had SATA SDD, not M.2 NVMe! Sata is slower than M.2 NVMe, and cheaper, so great job MSI! The case has two RGB-color fans and an RGB CPU air-cooler. The MSI RTX 2070 video card also has RGB colors. By default the swirl RED and the video card is a rainbow fade. Very subdued colors, not too gaudy, although you can make them as colorful as you wish with the utility app. It is VERY QUIET! This was important to me. The case is also very cool looking. All the wiring was done neatly and efficiently. It has two HDD bays underneath the shelf where the power supply is. The power supply is 650w 80+ GOLD with modular wiring. The unused PSU wiring is in a bag that came with the system. The computer is boxed very well and had expanding foam insert inside case holding everything still and together. It came in a nice cloth bag as well. Very nicely done, MSI! The keyboard seems very decent "gaming-type" keyboard and the mouse has quite a few buttons and a nice, smooth scroll wheel. Both are wired, as expected on a gaming machine. So far only day one, but I am very pleased with this system so far! Even nicer is that it is NOT loaded down with BLOATWARE! Very clean install! Thank you, MSI! I fully expected to spend hours unloading the JUNK software that is usually loaded on other makers new computers. A true 5-Star worthy computer!
