System runs cool and I'm a big fan of the somewhat understated design of the case. I like RGB and all but the fact that there is a button on the pc that can cycle the different light schemes and turn the RBG off is very practical and welcomed feature. I chose MSI because of their reputation for quality and quality is what i got. No regrets
I usually build my own systems, but the price of this product on the black Friday sale was cheaper than I could build the equivalent system myself.
When I received this system, the rear ports are blocked by the I/O shield. Either the motherboard is warped, not mounted properly in the case, or the I/O shield is not stamped properly, and cables cannot be plugged into several of the rear ports.
I noticed that another Amazon customer had the same problem, and posted a photo before returning the system.
The photo posted to Amazon looked so much the same as mine, that I thought it might be possible that the defective system had been sent back out to me, until I searched the web, and this appears to be a common defect and is happening a lot to MSI customers.
Rather than rip this thing apart and diagnose the problem, I called Amazon to replace it.
At first the Amazon rep said that, because this is a high dollar item, I would have to return it for a refund and repurchase it, effectively losing my black Friday discount. Then he called this a minor defect, and I corrected him that not being able use use some of the important ports of a new system (LAN, keyboard USB, mouse USB) is NOT a minor defect.
He said Amazon could not replace the system because it was a high dollar item, and could only refund it. I told him that this was not acceptable, and he checked with a supervisor. He then said that they could not replace the system because they didn't have any more in stock. I am pretty sure I verified that they had some in stock before I called Amazon, but I checked and indeed it was out of stock.
I asked if I could get it replaced by MSI since it was a new system shipped with a defect. He brought a MSI customer rep on line by the name of Hank to see if MSI could replace this defective system. Hank said that, since the system was sold by Amazon, MSI could not replace the system. I could send it in for warranty repair, but I would receive a refurbished system to replace my new, defective system, and that is not acceptable.
We finally agreed that Amazon would replace the system if they got a replacement in stock before my return window closes. I offered that I would not boot or initialize the system to make it easier for MSI to process the return and repair the defect, and the Amazon rep thanked me for that.
I am waiting for Amazon to get this product back in stock so I can keep my black Friday discount. I noticed that there is another vendor that has this product in stock for the same price as my black Friday discount with good reviews on Amazon, but searching reviews outside of Amazon I found many complaints, and I also found complaints with the Better Business Bureau, some of which seem to be unresolved, so I have decided not to purchase from them.

Edit:
After returning the one from Amazon, I ordered a new one directly from the manufacturer. The one from the manufacturer took a week to arrive, but so far (about 5 days in) it works great. It runs fast and cool. I updated the star rating from 1 to 4 stars because I expect a version even from Amazon to work just as well as one directly from the manufacturer. Although I have not run the highest spec games on it so far, however, I have run CPU intensive games usually do not get the CPU above 50 C and only has a CPU usage of about 40%. RAM is DDR5 and has run fine, most of the time only 50% of the 16GB is being used. The MSI center runs a little weird and seems like it is trying to base GPU numbers on the integrated graphics and not the 3070ti, but Nvidia can give you numbers on the GPU. Hopefully, this computer lasts a while, glad to know I got a year warranty from MSI.
