Excellent machine for gaming, working, or creating
Overall, very satisfied with this purchase. Delivery went smoothly, courier rang doorbell and requested signature which was very nice. Only hitch was the description failed to mention that the machine only has one USB 2.0 port and the other three ports are USB 3.0 that don't fit my devices. Otherwise is as advertised. Very powerful and capable for a good price. Good choice for a heavy user looking to work from home or a video game enthusiast looking to break into PC gaming, running virtual machines, or even some graphic design/artwork. Battery charger pack is a little bit bigger than most notebooks so you'll need some space of you want to take it with you somewhere. If you're looking for a family PC or something to stream with, this PC can do it, but it probably has too many bells and whistles for that, go with something less powerful (and much more affordable).

Great for what i bought it for
It is great for what it was when I bought it it is a powerful laptop with a Loud fan but the graphics card and screen is beautiful. I am looking to replace the hard drive is it I've already replaced the ram no not because it wasn't working but because I needed something with more.

Would look for a better brand/model.
I bought this on sale for Cyber Monday at $1149, which i thought was a steal for these specs. I don't play demanding games, but figured why not get an insane machine just in case since it's on sale? My previous laptop held up for well for gaming, but had a heating issue which eventually caused the battery to swell. I removed the battery which mad it still usable as a "desktop", but was still very loud with the fans always trying to keep it cooled. I had hoped this would be much quieter, especially on power saving mode while gaming, but this isn't the case. Is just as loud and hot as my previous laptop and even with the insane specs, lags/skips while gaming on battery power, even if on max performance setting. On top of that the battery life is atrocious, around one hour. I wish MSI had an option to stop charging past a certain battery percentage because this has to stay plugged in, basically acting as yet another laptop desktop... I could have literally kept my old laptop and saved $1400, after tax and protection plan. Definitely having buyers remorse now and not sure if I should return it, if i even can since it's been over a month. There's also a soft spot in the center of the keyboard for some reason, which worries me. It's very obvious, even with a light touch, that it receeds there. I'd suggest looking around and comparing other models/brands and look for something with and decent vattery life and no cooling issue.
