A fabulous investment when seeking portable power

Very happy with this purchase! I took 6 months researching for my needs both gaming and as a graphic designer that travels. This has the power to handle any task or game I throw at it without a hitch. The only problem I've had is when it is hooked to my workstation monitor/keyboard/mouse, sometimes when I open games, the game uses a generic graphics card instead of the nvidia which causes all kinds of lag issues. The solution is to open the laptop and use the laptop keyboard/touch pad to open the game. Then it uses the correct video card and I can again close the laptop.This laptop can get hot in a hurry if you keep it plugged in and running, so definitely invest in a cooling accessory that you can set it on top of to protect your lap and the vital hardware. With my cooling accessory plugged into the laptop and running games I can get roughly 4 hours of battery life. It would probably be longer with the cooler.

Started off bad but in the end very satisfied.

Update 12/11/2018. I've revised my review based on successful resolution of the WIFI issue. MSI support is still horrible; however, with some help from IT friends my new laptop works flawlessly and is a nice piece of applied technology.

I've used computers for most of my adult life. They've been for work, 3D modeling, engineering, etc. When I gamed, I used a console, Xbox, or PS4. I never thought I would find a computer that allowed me to be productive with my work applications and a powerhouse in the gaming world.I've only had the computer a short period of time, but here's what I can tell you:1. It feels solid. I've seen reviews where they talk about flex, but to my experience, that is a very small issue that I have not seen to be a problem.2. It's fast, oh so very fast. This machine feels amazing, no hesitation with applications or any of the cames I'm playing.3. Battery life isn't what they claim, but let's be real. If your gaming, you're connected to a power cable.I've never used MSI before, but I think they just found a new customer going forward.
