An MSI in downgraded mode...
1/ the machine is as stated.
2/ the speed is top notch with the i9 and the graphics card.
3/ the aluminium casing looks good.
4/ the problem comes from the hinges of the screen which clamp it when you open it and thus cause the glossy coating of the screen to come off.
It's a pity, at this price level this shouldn't happen, it's a design problem of the hinges/screen connection and will be recurrent I think.
