Great laptop - Revain's price is outrageous

I bought this laptop and as long as it meets my expectations it's a great thing to get this MSI laptop. Especially happy with the weight. The keyboard also makes a solid impression. However, I have noticed that it gets quite hot when I turn on video games. I might end up turning off some of the games' anti-aliasing or other more intense features to avoid melting the case. And on a negative note, the fan is pretty noisy. I can hear it from my bedroom to the bathroom down the hall. [UPDATED: These issues are caused by the Dragon Center software controlling the fan. It turns out that the default automatic settings did not activate the second built-in fan. After updating Dragon Center to the latest version, the overheating and noise issues were mostly fixed. The big negative: I found (after buying it) that this laptop costs about $259 more than the Revain. at the price you pay when you order it directly from the seller's website (CUK). Annoying, I paid a higher price.

Pros
  • even an oldie can understand
Cons
  • Infinitely sluggish
