I was bit worried buying this, as it's my first new pc, and everyone is saying to build your own. This baby fired up right away, and took care of updates on its own. I was able to start gaming within a couple hours of unboxing. Been running Tarkov, Forza 5, and poe 2 at 60fps 1080p. No stutters, or quality drops at all, while maintaing a safe cpu load and temperature. Came with a simple mouse and keyboard, and I'm currently using the keyboard while I wait on picking up a proper gaming one. Lots of information online regarding this particular cpu and card combo, so it's been easy to research optimal settings for Nvidia and the like. All in all, extremely satisfied with my purchase. And it got delivered 3 days early, which is always great.
What's the first thing you think of when you hear 18" laptop? BIG. That's not the impression I got when I first saw and lifted the MSI Stealth AMG. When under load I was expecting lots of fan noise. Instead, it's more of a quite light whistle. Nothing annoying. The Ultra Core processor and RTX 4080 work beautifully together. I was a little worried about the processor but my fears have been put to restno problems with first-person games like Black Ops 6 or D4. My favorite part is the UHD mini LED 18" screen. Perfect for people who use their laptops in sunny parts of the house or outside. The sound system for this laptop is very impressive. The sound system has bass! I normally use a headset but this part impressed upon me how much work MSI put into developing this laptop and the quality of parts used.
Runs great very quiet Easy set up and install, I built my first PC and this one was put together very nice installing my old ssd and harddrive was simple
Easy set up with a quick start guide. All the games I've played on it so far have ran very smooth, even while watching a movie on the other screen.
works as advertised. Gives you a lot of extra screws and zipties which is nice.
Prebuilt (save for the graphics card) Fast fans Pre-installed Windows and graphics drivers Cool RGB GPU and CPU run at 40°C maximum with fans on full Sturdy design Plenty of airflow Most games run at a smooth 60 at Ultra settings, 2K res -7 Days to Die for example -Hogwarts Legacy -Borderlands 2 runs at 4K max settings Uses Wifi and Ethernet simultaneously for faster downloads
- After it got picked up by UPS, the PC was delivered in 2 days flat. - Really easy to setup. Turned it on and it instantly booted me into Windows. - 2TB & 64GB RAM goodness. - Super clean look and gorgeous to look at when powered on. - Runs my games like a champ in max at 4k and 1440p >60fps. I mostly play older single player JRPGs & co-op and indies with a bit of AAA sprinkled in once a blue moon. However, the ones I do play run at max settings with ease.
Arrived one day early Everything seemed to be connected properly I can run starfield at Ultra settings The hottest that the graphics card has gotten has been 58C
First thing I noticed was the lighting surrounding the keys. Very nice feature. Different colors are on incorporated. Very useful when room is darkened. Keys are still very visible.
Great Beginner budget PC!
- Fast start up time and great performance on every game I've tried so far - I'm not normally a fan of RGB, but the RGB on this PC looks stellar - Great case and just an overall good-looking PC - Packaged well in shipping, had no worries about anything being broken with how protected everything was
It does in fact come with a 4070 Super, which is like 25% better than the original 4070. The only downside with the hardware RAM is limited to DDR4 and the CPU is the cheapest 14th gen i5, but you could still upgrade this thing to a 4090 and a better CPU even with DDR4 ram. The specs don't list a motherboard, but it is a ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC., PRIME B660M-A AC D4. This is a surprisingly high-value motherboard, and you should be able to overclock your RAM with it if I understand the BIOS settings correctly. The value proposition might change when it's not on sale, but it was a good deal for me when it was.
Good design Great performance and hardware Relatively quiet Display Speed
- Great price - includes GPU in price - not too crazy on the LEDs but enough to look nice - upgrade able to keep up with the times
Everything about this PC is great. It came packaged very securely. It worked great right out of the box and continues to. The lights of the fans and the front cover are actually very nice (even though I didn't think I would like them). It is just an all around great purchase on my part. I will confess I am not a gamer and never will be, I just needed a good computer to replace my old ASUS which lasted me over a decade without an issue. The SSD is incredibly fast and I would recommend it to anyone without hesitation.
- Good packaging for shipping - Started up first try with no issues - RGB software came pre-installed and is easy to use for someone who hasn't used such features before - Excellent price (when I ordered for $1799)
