    This sucks soo much. If you buy this, make sure everything works before you leave the store. I am just now trying to use the headphone jack for the 1st time, and it shorts out. Also, the power port sucks. I have to move it a certain way to charge it and it's really loose. I don't even unplug and plug back in. I mainly use it as a desktop and its powers two monitors. Msi will not fix this because they are telling me that it's a refurb and only had a 90-day warranty. When I bought this, I was told it was brand new and I even paid full price. MSI is saying that they can't use my receipt because it's digital and want me to mail them my original receipt. I wish I can return this and go with a different computer.

    The computer worked fine until yesterday when it caught fire via the charging cable. I am extremely disappointed that it only lasted 17 months.

    Bought this a year and one month ago, the motherboard is completely shot. Used only at a desk, never traveled with. Never dropped. Treated well. And now I have a catastrophicly broken computer a year later, right after the warranty expired. I'll NEVER buy an MSI product again after this.

    It’s good computer, I don’t like that it has only 16gb of RAM memory. I would like to increase more memory but 16gb is its top.

    PC was doing fine for the first months, I wasn’t using it a lot. Conveniently after the return period ended this computer becomes very slow, and I barely have anything downloaded on it, I’m still using it very lightly. The computer makes loud static sounds when turned on for a few minutes and you can’t turn it off. The computer also uses up 100% of its battery in less than an hour of use only on PDFs. And it doesn’t make sense for the return window to only be 10 days, that’s ridiculous.

    I ordered the black model and received a white one. Color wasn't an important factor, so i was going to keep it, however, it was so loud when the fan was running on high and the MSI software was so glitchy, i returned it...
