well worth the money

Memory Size: 32GB

Really great performance for the price. Does everything I wished for. I'm a novice gamer and so using it mainly for normal internet and work, I do a lot of video and audio editing and it is superfast compared to my previoous Toshiba W10 laptop. The RGB backlighting had a default flashing pattern which was actually somewhat garish and instructions for turning it off (until I play a game when I want it on) was obvious once I found the button in the manual, but to program them requires to update the MSI control centre. Maybe one small security issue with it not locking the screen after waking from sleep. I have read about this on a windows 11...view more

Jack of all trades master of none

Memory Size: 16GB

Purchased as a replacement for my older 2017 gaming laptop I'd say this has a lot of things going for it. This laptop firmly sits in the 'good' category. Good CPU, good GPU, ok battery life, ok keyboard, ok features/ports, good screen, ok size/weight. It isn't the top end in any case and if your wanting a more specialized laptop then there are better options but this has been a great all rounder. It hit the sweet spot for the money I was willing to spend
