Does this have an Ethernet port?

Accepted Answer

Yes, left side, first port from hinge, near tilde key. I have not used it.

Question 5

Is it a matt or glossy screen? Is there enough place for a suplementary ssd?

Accepted Answer

its a matt screen.

as far as i know when i changed out my HDD for a SSD there wasn't another bay specifically for a drive, however if you take out the CD drive you can put a hdd there. additionally there is a M.2 NVRAM spot for some extra storage.

recommendations: get another 8gb ram stick (because there is a single stick with 8gb) also switch to SSD or M.2 NVRAM as soon as possible.

Pros:
it runs rather cool under a heavy load.
big screen without the laptop actually being bulky.
screen is super bright and crisp.
big track-pad.
not much bloatware (however i just reinstalled a fresh copy of windows without all the bloat.)
doesn't void warranty if bottom plate is opened to mod the hardware. (at least in North America)
many external ports. (nice network card! and bluetooth! yay!)
physically sturdy case

Cons:
short battery life. 
as far as gaming goes i was expecting much more performance out of this thing.
no backlit keyboard (i mean come on, all my gaming is done at night)
needs another stick of ram for dual channel. (might be playing a factor in bottle-necking the performance)

overall i like this computer however dont look to it for all your gaming needs. if you get it, just remember to register it on MSI to get the warranty in action.
