    This laptop has outperformed many that I have tested. I needed to make sure that I'm getting the machine that I want when you are putting this much money down. The benchmarks are amazing! (ran a quick userbenchmark.com) Gaming:138% Desktop:100% Workstation:133%. I used this computer at home with a 4k screen and at work. Running multiple apps and windows with no hiccups. Everyone will always say that fans are loud, yes they have some pitch to them. But this is only when you are pushing this machine to full potential. Running COD Warzone for a few hours, the machine only got up to 72*C GPU and 84*CPU. (If you are wearing a headset with this laptop, you will not hear the fans) Overall this is a great machine and worth the buy if you are looking for laptop that you can use for just about anything. My only con about this transaction, is that I received a 230w power brick. MSI website stats a 280w with the 10UH-210. (waiting on MSI for conclusion) Will update when I receive update

    This thing is as good as it gets. It's packed with some of the highest specs available on the market right now, with portability. This 15.6inch laptop can crank out more than 300 frames on particular titles, which exceeds even the screens refresh capabilities. You will never have to worry about it getting too hot because of Cooler boost 5. Compared to the speakers on previous models, the speakers on this model just sound a lot better, and they're louder! If you see one of these for sale, and you're in the market, don't hesitate.

    Laptop has great specs and feels premium. I would point out its advertised that this has windows Pro, mine came directly from best buy with windows Home. Hopefully they will upgrade, bitlocker is very important if your laptop is stolen or some encryption software so pro is nice to have. Fans are super loud when cooler boost is on but that's to be expected Having issues with the laptop sleeping despite all sleep/hibernate functions being disabled.

    This is an amazing machine - Good processor, reasonable amount of RAM, NVMe SSD, and an absolutely gorgeous display! I bought it mainly for development, but I can certainly see myself playing some top-notch games on here.

    Holy **** this thing is amazing. So far in tests, it runs at decent temps under heavy load. In my modded skyrim, the fans are hardly audible. I got it to game on while my desktop renders and I honestly wasn't expecting to perform as well as it does. Realllllly happy I was able to snag one. Bow just trying to get a desktop 3080 (cries)

    Purchased after a ton of research. Great gaming laptop. Super powerful, sturdy build and looks awesome. Best available specs, plus expandable, for a good price (especially if you can find a sale). 130w max graphics card power drastically outpaces many other comparable brands/models.

    Excellent purchase especially with BestBuy's discount of 202! This is the best way to spend your tax refunds or Corona Virus Stimulus checks from last year since everyone is working from home now. :)

    So far, I've had this laptop for half a day but so far it's amazing! It has all the features I need and several cool features I didn't even know about! The RGB is pretty cool too.

    Great gaming laptop

    If you are looking for a high performance gaming laptop that looks awesome and performs well, then this is the laptop for you. This is one of the quickest laptops I've ever purchased and it plays all of the games I've thrown at it on high settings so far. The 300 fps display is something you don't typically see on laptops, but it really shines. 1TB of space is more than enough for all of your games and the 32GB of memory will allow any amount of multitasking. The built in RTX 3080 is also really quick. Overall, I'm very happy with the purchase.

    Best laptop ever! Great lighting, amazing graphics, and it is very fast! I would recommend this laptop for anyone. There is a gaming mode and a studio mode, gaming mode is for gaming and studio mode is for editing videos, animating, and more!

    This PC is really great. The build quality is top notch and has a great feel to it. The 3080 is very powerful and takes everything I throw at it. Overall I'm really happy with this product.
