    Very good

    Very good computer
    I'm taking off one star because there are no more slots for a 2nd hard drive compared to my old msi.

    Power and silence

    After five months of use, I have absolutely nothing to report.
    This model offers excellent value for money for its configuration.
    I use it for intensive Gaming and Home Studio.
    In terms of gaming, the most recent titles run at maximum speed and most of the time silently. It doesn't heat up.
    For Home Studio, the processing is very good and it quickly loads my (too many) VST and Virtual Instruments libraries.
    The only 'weak' point of this model is the capacity of its SSD (only 1TB) and the absence of a second slot...
    I opted for a 4TB Fury Renegate from Kingston instead.

    Product that does the job very well

    This PC has a lot going for it. Compared to my old MSI, certain functions are more confusing to get to grips with. For example, the sleep mode isn't as instantaneous as with my old PC. Another negative point is the label that swells and comes off, leaving all the glue on the device. Not great
    But I'm still very satisfied with my purchase, no regrets.
