    Impressive Beast! Best Bang for your Buck.

    First MSI pre-built and liquid cooled rig, and I'm impressed with the bang for the buck. The video card alone is worth the price point. New games my old franken rig struggled with even after numerous upgrades, now start and run without issue (BG3, RTM, Icarus were my biggest bottlenecks) and they look absolutely fantastic on Ultra. Highlights and observations from unboxing photos: PROS: 1) Magnetized removable top screen for ease of cleaning dust from the liquid cooling fan exhaust. 2) Excellent cable management for maximized airflow. 3) Whisper quiet given there are 7 fans at work in this rig. 4) RAM easily expandable from 32GB* to 64GB*... There are 4 slots, and it comes with 2 in use. Best Buy specs as of this writing imply 2 of 2 slots are in use. 5) VRAM is 16GB*... Buy Buy specs neglect to specifically cite this as of this writing, but SUPER implies 16GB and confirmed upon setup. CONS (Not show stoppers): 1) MSI auxiliary inputs are strangely top mounted with no protective covering to prevent them from getting gunked up with dust. Just remember to clean and blow them out when you clean the dust screen, but MSI should reconsider this design choice. 2) MSI provides the motherboard's SATA cables for internal drive mounting, but there is clearly no place to mount said drive in the case. 3) As of this writing, Best Buy shipped unit in the original packing material, painting a target for porch pirates. It was shipped with signature required, but when the UPS arrived he stated they don't require signatures since COVID. Thankfully I work from home to take delivery immediately, but others may not be so fortunate. Plan accordingly to be present to take delivery. *I'm an old school IT guy, and have stability issues with any system with Non-Binary increments of RAM. I've been holding out on upgrading my rig because 16GB VRAM usually is cost-prohibitive and was not going to compromise on a 12GB card or a 24GB system that I've been seeing a lot of these days. Insist on binary increments (2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, etc) of RAM, VRAM and Storage for maximum stability and performance.

    I’ve had the PC for a little less than a year and it’s been amazing. I can run every game I play on the highest settings and still have over 100 fps. I don’t play many multiplayer games so I can’t speak for the performance on those but on the ones I do play I never experience any issues. It is a bit pricey but if you buy it ok sale I think it has an amazing price to performance ratio.

    Very nice prebuilt. Function wise excellent also very quiet. I only have one small issue power supply is none modular or it would be perfect. All components are high quality and work great. Runs very cool with AIO Seems top notch. Only suggestion I have for MSI is to use a premium Power supply on their prebuilds which would make them perfect. I would recommend It is one of the best prebuild out there. Not the cheapest but a good value. Better than Dell or HP also better than any I9 Prebuild out there.

    When comparing all of the options in this price range, this was one of the best featured desktops available. There were very few ‘extra’ non default apps installed.

    This was a big improvement for me in terms of rendering time from my previous computer. I can't say I know how it stacks up against other models, but the 4070 Ti Super + 32 GB RAM has been a game changer for my video projects.

    Awesome pre-built

    I bought this of the MSI website, a little hesitant for buying a prebuilt. Best one for the price. Had some issues with the BIOS update on MSI site being outdated. Reached out to their support and they reaponded next day with the download included to fix issue. This prebuilt has top notch quality products, better than most, and to build it with these same specs generally can't match price. I would recommend checking out MSI US store for more info prior to buying.
