    Top-notch PC

    This PC is truly incredible, and its value for money crushes the competition! The sound is just incredible and the PC is really easy to carry around (the advantage of the 15.6"). The finish and features (rgb keyboard...) are just MSI quality...perfect !!!
    What's more, the PC comes with 32GB of ram and that's a very good deal! I hesitated with the katana 17 at the same price but I chose the 15 mainly for its size and its storage of 1to very very practical !!!
    I highly recommend it ! Thank you Msi for this product and thank you LDLC
