Nothing to say, runs all the games of the moment - COD - BF6, the quality is good, the PC heats up a lot, so I bought a ventilated stand to spare my components.
Thanks LDLC
I'm pleased with the performance of this PC, which seems to be well distributed across the various components.
Received very quickly, no problems. Getting started was a bit laborious: lots of updates. Apart from that, adapting to W11 from W10 is not easy!
Very good team, friendly, good advice, very competent, knowing how to make themselves available.
Highly recommended.
I had an MSI laptop ordered from you 7 years ago which I was very happy with. For the transition to Windows 11 I ordered the MSI Katana 17 B13VFK-1042FR Dragon Station with 32 Gigas of RAM. The reviews were positive. Well, I was disappointed. Some applications such as You Tube sometimes slow down a bit, which wasn't the case with the other one. And the sound was very, very disappointing! My previous MSI had excellent sound. Otherwise it works fine, but it's nothing fancy compared to my MSI 7 years ago with 8 gigs of RAM and Windows 7.
Just what you'd expect, fast and with a full keyboard that's very easy to use.
You can feel the quality of the brand.
I bought this computer 3 months ago and I am very disappointed.
This one is extremely slow, even for a simple start-up. Far from the performance expected.
The screen even has a tendency to freeze. In short, I don't recommend it at all.
I have been using LDLC for years and have never had the slightest problem. I can only recommend them.
First time I've used an MSI. It's fast and accurate for both games and office work.
I'm delighted with this laptop. It has lived up to my expectations. A pleasure for gaming and entertainment.
