I've been using the laptop for a week now and love it. I bought it to replace my desktop gaming computer and am really happy so far. I haven't played any graphics intense games yet, but it is more than enough machine for the online mmorpgs I play. Like all laptops, the fans get a little louder when game settings are high and there's lots of movement on screen, but they're not that bad. At least it doesn't bother my wife who sits just a few feet away from me watching her shows. It's comfortable, and the wide mouse pad is pretty nice.

This is a great laptop overall, love the power and elegance it has. The fact that includes many ports, specially the RJ45 is essential to me. One particular aspect that annoyed me is the camera, this is a high end gaming laptop! And I expected at least some decent camera resolution but it doesn't have it. The camera for this gaming laptop cost, it's just poor.
Anyway, when it comes to performance I'm happy with it, its 32gb RAM are just insane! And the graphics card is also a beast!

I bought this laptop a couple of days ago and and as of then I have had no problems with it at all. I ran benchmark tests and such and the laptop performed amazing. Game-play on the laptop is also a very smooth and awesome experience. The only negative about this laptop is that, for its price, it should at least come with Windows 10 Pro, but other than that, I am very satisfied with the laptop.

I'm not a tech connoisseur but I am an enthusiastic gamer trying to juggle a bit of free time between work and ... life. I did quite a bit of research when I decided to replace my previous laptop (Asus ROG G751, acquired early 2015 and still amazing tbh) and ultimately landed on this MSI.
Gaming laptops overall are considerably more expensive than an "equally" built desktop, but to some of us portability is a requirement. Being used to my previous Asus and its rather massive frame, seeing how the MSI GS75 was able to pack so much power in such a slim frame was a dream come true. I was so amazed that I actually explored the 15" just to entertain the idea of having a gaming laptop that was roughly the size of my work laptop, but the 17" is the perfect size and with the thin bezels and wonderful design it actually closely resembles most 15" laptoos (in fact, worth mentioning that I later bought AmazonBasics 15.6-Inch Laptop Macbook Sleeve Case and it fits perfectly).
In terms of the specs, there are various builds on the GS75 and I decided for this one. The 2080 Max-Q is amazing, testing just below the RTX 2080 under top stress situations, but close enough for the average gamer. The 32GB (2x16) was a no brainer (go read on the benefits of two vs one sticks). The screen is amazing quality, rocking 144Hz which is rare on laptops to begin with (and again, on such a slim machine). I upgraded the HD to include a 970 EVO 1TB, but other than that the specs were perfect for me.
The touchpad is indeed large, and a bit more "to the left" than we're usually used to, it will take a bit of time to get used to it but no biggie.
TL;DR - amazing power in a slime frame, great build, display and portability.

Love this laptop. Returned my Razer Blade after having nothing but problems. CPU can run hot in the MSI so I applied a -0.150 undervolt and purchased a cooling pad. Build quality is good, I know people have complained about that but I have no issues. It seems solid to me. Very happy and would recommend MSI to anyone.

the specs on the laptop are amazing and let me use any coding programs, or play any games easily. the only thing I would say that is a downside is the matte finish, which you need to clean often if you don't want all the fingerprints showing on the outside.

Probably not worth the price I paid... But, How many products are when your paying for top quality.
Hardware is slightly gimped with MaxQ, but, reserves enough power to play triple 'A' titles at ease.
The screen is not that good; wish I bought the 4K@60Hz, The 144Hz has significant light bleed. I usually leave it hooked up to my 32" monitor so laptop screen is not a big deal breaker for me; however, since I game on external moniter... The 144Hz display was not the best buying option.
Battery... I didn't buy it for the battery life, but it does last me an avg of 3 hrs when not gaming... Not like the advertised 9hr.
Customer support- not yet needed; but I am sure they are much better than Asus's horrid No-Service support team.
