    An absolute beast. I do think the pricing on this could be lower, but otherwise I am more than happy. I primarily use this docked away and connected to a 1440p 240 hz+ monitor, and it is incredible for this use case. For that reason, I can't speak much on the laptop's display. However, performance is incredible and as I'd expect for these specs. Consider this if you wanted effectively a desktop replacement you can travel anywhere with (just make sure your backpack can handle/fit it!).

    In MSHybrid mode with 240hz selected, there is screen flickering. If changed to 60hz there is no flickering. In discrete graphics mode and 240hz selected no flickering and the laptop runs like a BEAST! Love this laptop as otherwise, its PERFECT!

    I am a first generation MSI owner. I purchased in 2016. I still have this amazing computer. Recently I have upgraded and purchased the MSI Raider GE78. All I can say is excellent gaming computer with an amazing large screen. I use it as a computer and to watch movies and television.

    I absolutely think this is the best laptop I have ever purchased. I love how fast it is to start up, the metal chassis is very sturdy, the screen is very bright and clear, great webcam, the keyboard is very quiet when typing and has a great feel to it, No issues playing video games, RGB lights are awesome and the software to operate the fans, lights, etc are very easy to use.
