Great computer, super happy so far.

Pros: * Fast. * Beautiful. * Very little bloatware compared to some other brands.

Cons: * Not the greatest motherboard layout ever (have to remove graphics card to get to M.2 drive slot. * No Thunderbolt support. * 5000 series GPU still needs time to be fully supported by the software I use (Topaz Video/Photo AI and Gigapixel). Photo AI sharpening is completely broken right now, Video AI is not using the tensor cores yet and is much slower than it should/could be. That's not MSI's fault though.

Overall Review: I'm loving this computer so far. It's working great for my productivity and content creator style usage. I had a few little hiccups setting it up. The screen went black for a GPU driver update and it didn't come back on so I had to hard reset the computer but it was fine and the drivers had installed successfully. I haven't had any issues since setup.
