Great laptop. used it consistently for two years and it still plays all games at high settings. I've had problems with the RBG keyboard not showing any colors but other than that it's worked great.

Great laptop, runs smoothly, definitely needs a fan system or something to promote airflow and keep the laptop cooled down. Besides that this laptop is a beast and very comparable to traditional PC tower set up

Battery problem

-MSI Vector GP66 run amazingly smooth and fast but gets hot extremely quickly which is expected.
-The only problem I have with it is the battery that I got in my laptop is straight up garbage, at full battery it lasted 1.5 hours with the lowest brightness settings, battery saver mode, and RGB keyboard off.
-This was a little of a let down because of the price I had payed and this being my first gaming laptop. Other than my problem, the MSI Vector GP66 is a pretty solid gaming laptop.

Sweet laptop, runs great.
Getting the keyboard lights to work as desired is confusing with the MSI software conflicting with the keyboard vendor SW.

My sister has this for college because she does 3D rendering. It's working out just fine for her so far. The battery is just as expected, terrible.

Sleek, Powerful, Awesome Screen, & ... a Tad Noisy

This little machine is a powerhouse, running everything as smoothly as you could ask, due to its i9 processor and 32GB of RAM. But the real star is the gorgeous screen: although it's not large, the colors are vibrant and there is nearly zero lag even with fast mouse movements. It's frankly astonishing that something with these specs can fit in such a slim housing, which brings up the only, and quite minor shortcoming: fan noise. This model has been lauded for superior heat dissipation, and that's not possible without a bit of sound from the fans, but the ear easily tunes it out.
If you're planning on outputting this to an external monitor, 360HZ is really overkill, and all that's needed is a great graphics card, which this has. Running a "2K" monitor at around 170HZ presents no problems at all, and the results are pretty stunning.

Laptop great. Only thing is the battery. Doesn’t last long. I expect that as time goes, but it’s brand new and it’s not performing as well as I think it should. Other than that it’s a powerful laptop

Love it! It runs Elden Ring and RTX Minecraft full settings without a stutter! I do wish the cord to power brick was a bit longer though.

The computer in general works well for gaming. The only issue is that the computer no longer recognizing the wifi adapter. I’ll have to tech it back to Best Buy to have a tech look at it but other than that, no issues.
