Pros: So this thing came in the mail today, got it for 2000 USD on newegg, didn't think we'd be seeing them any lower then that. Rather then spending 1500 on a laptop with a terrible keyboard I yoloed hard and got this monster. Did a Windows 10 upgrade, everything works fantastic, minimal bloatware. Obviously this is day 1 and I'm in love, if anything goes wrong I'll be sure to update this. -Huge -Mech Keyboard -Huge Screen -Fast -Minimal bloatware -Sexy -2000$ backpack, the laptop was free

Cons: -price, i really don't need the sli gpus as I don't really care if I have to run a game on low settings. I have 4 year old desktop that is pretty much on par with this laptop, for 1k less. I can't move my full sized steel case easily though, just wish msi would consider making a mechanical laptop with lower hardware, something in the 1400-1600 range with this keyboard would be fantastic.

Overall Review: would've been nice if the metal keys could allow light through, only using the metal esc key right now, looks very nice but would've been much better if the dragon decal on it lit up. in the end though who cares.

Great for stealth music playing

Pros: Im a merchandiser, and no brain is required for what I do. That's why I enjoy passing the time by listening to podcasts. However, they frown on earbuds. With this thing, no one says a word. Everybody just assumes its a regular bluetooth headset for calls. I listen to my podcasts now, and charge it in the car between stores. So far, never come close to draining the battery as long as I charge it during lunch, even in a 12 hour day. Sits comfortably in my ear.

Cons: None

Overall Review: None

VERY HAPPY

Pros: Just replaced two 3870s with this 1 4870. Finally have some drivers that work with vista 64! no more catalyst problems either, and this thing just eats up my games.

Cons: none so far

Bought 2 of these, work great

Pros: No problems with these, installed quickly and work great! Quick shipping from Newegg as well!

Cons: Bought them before they went down in price lol.

Perfect Case

Pros: the fans are extremely powerful and quiet, keeps my system very cool, tons of room for cable management, tons of room for expansion, military style.

Cons: gpu holders are kind of flimsy, if your buying the ASUS maximus formula II mobo that comes with the supremeFX X-Fi sound card the card is a very very tight fight and your gonna have to wrestle it in there.

Overall Review: would buy for other builds.
