    Although a bit bulky it's a great value for a 17" laptop. Fast.

    Looks great, feels great, the fan and speakers are kinda bad though for the price. Otherwise it's a great system, just buy a head set to muffle the fan.

    Did a clean OS load to get out from under the bloatware as suggested by other reviewers. No issues otherwise, lightening fast boot, decent battery life considering how hungry this machine is. Deducting one star as I learned that BB sells a model with a non-IPS panel. Wasn't what I thought I was buying but very happy otherwise.

    Works well overall, has worked well for 2 years, currently runs games at lower end graphics yet the cpu hits 93degrees Celsius and 200 degrees Fahrenheit, this will burn the feeling out of your fingers at that temperature

    Bought this laptop for my son who is in college. Best Buy's pricing made it so affordable that I was able to purchase this awesome gaming laptop at a price that was comparable to other name brand computers that were not even gaming laptops...Best Buy ROCKS !

    The computer is great. It has a beautiful illuminated keyboard that lights up in rainbow colors when it boots up. The display is nice and it is pretty fast. Only 2 downfalls...very quiet when you watch DVDs and I can't get the camera to work.

    Considered other mainstream brand gaming laptops but was disappointed in the value and quality in those products. MSI sells a solid product with good quality for a reasonable price.

    Great laptop! Will run everything al Ultra and is upgrade proof for at least 4 years! Only gripe is it does get a little hot, but dragon center will allow you to monitor it closely. Overall beautiful laptop with fool proof features.

    I love this laptop, it's been fantastic to me. I think I'll be upgrading again sooner than I planned but it'll be a fantastic backup machine. Runs smooth, runs cool, sound isn't the greatest but I bought speakers so it worked out as long as I'm not traveling.

    This laptop has been able to handle anything ive thrown at it so far and performs great. Fans keep it from overheating on my lap and the large screen really looks nice when watching netflix or something.

    Replaced a 10-yr old gaming laptop. Much lighter! Fast, great color. Good price when comparing similar items. I use it for film editing, running Adobe product including AfterEffects, and animation (Maya).

    We bought this computer for our son who is entering college as an engineering major. He says it meets all of his needs. Had to trade in his Mac because it didn't have the graphics that are required.

    This option saved me money because it comes with almost all the great features and customization of a colored keyboard. The only thing is when setting up it comes with a lot of junk preloaded, but once deleted it's great!
