    This laptop hits everything I need for school. The keyboard has a nice feel to it and a quick response.. and for the color combinations on the keyboard... they are mind blowing AWESOME! I didn't realize there were so many different combinations. It keeps the laptop fun and fresh. This computer has a fantastic graphics card and it can multitask like a beast. We are about to get $150 off with the 2 week price match guarantee after we saw it decrease in price by $50 plus the $100 for students. I was satisfied paying 2K but now it just makes this purchase so much sweeter. I would recommend this laptop.. highly.

    Bought this laptop for my son who was about to enter his first year of college for Engineering. He loves it and doesn't realize that I know he chose this laptop to play his games on. Lol

    This is an amazing laptop. It has all the customization functionally needed without all the gimmicks on top of the face plate like early models. Back lit keyboard is sleek and doesn't warm up the keyboard at all.

    Hello All, I gave this laptop 4 star! its super fast and amazing looking display! for a 1080P it really looks nice! I also love the thing bezel design part of it... Good Job MSI... the only reason I didnt give it 5 star is I wish the build quality was little bit better! when Im resting my palm next to the trackpad it makes this small noises and I can see its going down a bit.

    So far, the laptop is amazing! My only concern is that the fans run a bit loud and I'm not sure if that's specific to the one I have or if it's normal for this laptop. Will update as I continue to use the laptop.

    Great with a problem

    The computer itself is a great buy, and seems to be great quality. I was very pleased the first few days until ... I began the updates, Windows updated various drivers and dropped all reference to, and drivers of, the wireless capabilities. I got on the internet (with another computer) and quickly leaned that this was a common problem with MSI computers and the October of 18 Windows update. I was able to go babk in time and reverse the update, essentially re-installing the drivers, or recognizing them, and then the very next night, the computer auto downloaded the same Windows update (8904?) and without asking me updated, and dropped all the wireless drivers again. When you go deep into the computer, it has dropped the USB serial bus references, does not even recognize anything to do with wireless internet, and gives you a red caution icon that you are not connected to an ethernet cable. This is incredibly frustrating when 90%of everything I was trying to accomplish was through wireless. I would buy this computer again because of its graphics card and capabilities and SSD, but until they actively recognize this common issue and remedy it, I do not want the frustration again. Best Buy was awesome and the guy who handled my return was totally sympathetic.

    Got this for my son as he wanted a 'gaming' computer. He absolute loves it. Apparently it is very fast and has zero lag time! So if you or your kids love fortnite, then this is highly recommended!

    Great laptop for portable gaming

    The screen is fantastic. The color just pops and makes games look great. Speaking of which the 144hz display creates a very smooth experience for competitive gaming. The 1070 can handle all I've been able to throw at it. The thermals are fine by default, the fans don't even turn on when doing light tasks. However, the CPU can reach up to 90C while gaming. While this is still very functional, you may want to undervolt. The build quality is good and looks very clean. The only con with this laptop is that is it difficult to access the internals. So if you need more ssd storage, you may want to opt for the higher capacity version unless you're experienced. Overall, I am happy with this laptop and would recommend it.

    I was looking for a small portable laptop with yet quite beefy specs for my work (running heavy 3D programs) and I must say that the MSI GS65 has blown me away plus its great for when I game
