Normal product, but wanted more for the money.

I compared it with Alienware with the same performance characteristics, I chose this one because of the price and I won’t say that I regretted it, because the Alinvaer slows down even more and also costs 35-40k more. Has some pros: Video card performance. Keyboard. You can choose a configuration on 2 SSDs and put them in RAID. Has some cons: I switched to this laptop from a macbook, I thought it wouldn’t be worse, given that I only lacked normal graphics on a mac. As a result, this MSI heats up to 100 degrees and makes noise like an airplane, I thought maybe Windu needs to be rearranged. I took it from the site and bought Windows 11 pro at the price of the Internet, installed all my software and it seemed like nothing, it worked for 3 months. Time passed again, everything began to warm up to 100-105 and troll. I put a program for undervolting the CPU and turning off the turbo mode, the temperature dropped by 20 degrees but still to the mark of 90 gr. was getting there. In general, a laptop cannot be productive if it does not have at least 2 fans, and preferably 3, like on Alienware, no matter what hardware it has. The build quality is even worse than the new MacBooks. The hinges of the display cover are heavily tightened, it closes like a hood on a Lada Vesta and even goes when hit by a wave. Chassis slips in the middle, you can not put your hands on it. The keyboard has a mode only on and off the backlight, there are no 20 levels of brightness. The touchpad is pleasant to the touch, but it flexes a lot when pressed, it's scary to use. The sound is a divorce for dallars, Nokia 3220 has a better sound. When running on battery in medium mode, the performance lasts for an hour and forty, while there will be only integrated graphics and a processor up to 2.4 GHz. And the laptop itself starts to squeak with a barely distinguishable but different vile ultrasound. I listened and realized that the sound comes from under the back cover from below where the battery is located.
