easily best bang for your buck. i seen another pc best buy sells with a 10900k but the case and cooler on that thing is nonsufficient and wont last long. the temps on this thing is great thanks to the case and 3 intake fans, and rear exhaust fan. this thing can run any game at 1440p on high/ultra settings no problem and pairs extremely well with the samsung odyssey g7. Maybe the best pre built I have seen in terms of quality and value.

It's a decent build. It runs rather hot and loud so I ended up returning this product as it was going to go into my bedroom.

Very solid prebuilt machine. I was skeptical to order this after years of building my own machines with particular parts that would be the best for my use, but it is awesome. The 3080/10700kf duo perform wonderfully at 1440p and even 4K gaming. The parts are mostly MSI, and not dumbed down OEM parts but just like you’d buy individually. I would recommend to anyone looking for a very solid PC to last for years to come.

Once out of the box I was pleasantly surprised with how much smaller this mid-sized case was. It's much shorter in length than my outgoing CyberpowerPC system. The quality of the case is also very good, with a nice fit and finish and quality clear panel. Once booted up I was happy to find I wasn't overwhelmed with a bunch of bloatware. So far the system has crushed anything I've attempted while using a 144hz 1440p resolution. It's also extremely quiet.

Came broken, had to send it back to msi bc Best Buy couldn’t replace it. Works fine now but took a month to actually use it.

with everything expected.
increased memory frequency, swiped the aio upside down.
it is intel cpu which requires extra DIY to make it cool.
normal temp is around 30,
working temp is around 50,
peak is around 70.
but if you configure the bios to enable boost performance mode, the temp will drop to around 25-30, downside is the noise of the cpu fan.
by default it is cool and super quiet.

After getting the product I immediately checked to see if the power supply was going to be enough. I was pleased to see it did come with a 750W PSU as other reviews said theirs did not. Overall I am happy with the purchase as it has been running all my games smoothly with no issues. Might upgrade the SSD to a NVME, but for now everything is running smooth.

Computer arrived on time and as expected. Have had no issues with the cpu cooling as some other reviews have indicated. Temps are low in all games, only reaching around 70 degrees celsius at peak load. Parts were all name brand (primarily msi with the exception of the ram). The cable management was also surprisingly excellent. Overall very happy with this new computer from MSI.

Totally disappointed

Totally disappointed. The specs look great, however, after turning the machine on, I was immediately disappointed. The fans were running at full speed, and within 5 minutes of turning it on, it shut itself off. This happened multiple times. During one of those brief periods I ran a benchmark test and the results for the processor and memory were poor, and the graphics card was below where it should have been. I then checked cpu temps, most of which ranged from 75 to 100c.
Two thumbs down. Clearly this was defective from the factory (aio not working? Bad PSU?), but for the price, I didn’t think I was reasonable to spend time troubleshooting something that should be flawless.

Runs Hot, Not Great

For the money you spend, this should definitely have better cooling solutions. Runs hot and makes me less likely to buy MSI prebuilt products in the future (offense to MSI not BB). Do have to say RGB is pretty though.

I bought this to get into a 3080 to run triples for sim racing. The gpu will just do 3x 2k monitors at good fps - but MSI put a measley 650 power supply in it. Probably going to need to change that and all the wiring - bummer. Otherwise I like this pc.

Love it, quiet, fast and at a great price! Easy to setup and was ready to go in 10 min. ready to mine Ether and play VR. It's been 6 weeks and has not once crashed or given me any problems. Good luck finding another tower like this with a RTX 3080 at this price.

I have mixed feelings but yet to benchmark the GPU. I be having huge fps drops at times. Weakest part is the PSU being only a 650w. One of the fans was not lighting up, opened PC to find a disconnected plug. I'll update as soon as I upgrade parts.

I bought this for the 3080, seems solid build. I did not have the problem with the AIO cooler like other state. I modified and put a 750 PSU , more memory and later will put a M2 drive, this board has 2 nvme slots.

The computer would turn off automatically when doing heavy tasks. Instead of immediately returning it I tried taking it apart and making sure everything was connected really well. After about 6 months now, I have had no issues at all since.

Its a ok build, was the only way to get my hands on a 3080 video card without paying scalper price. Only thing I dont like about this desktop is that it came with a 650 power supply.

This prebuilt comes with an MSI Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 Gaming Z Trio. The graphics card alone is almost the sames price as the prebuilt. Very good buy. They also have a model on sale with an 11th gen processor . Sadly I missed my chance in that purchase. Honestly who knows, people who bought this pc 6 months ago got a 3080 ventus, so new buyers potentially have a chance of getting the new MSI Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080ti Gaming X Trio. Great purchase!!

It has a 650w power supply, thought that wasnt enought baught an 850w to upgrade but it doesnt seem to need it. I think it would of been better if it came with an 850w though.
