MSI Vision Elite RS AI Gaming Desktop: Intel Ultra 9 285K, Geforce RTX 5090, 64GB DDR5, 2TB M.2 NVMe SSD, Liquid Cooling, 1300W USB Type-C, VR-Ready, Window 11 Pro: 2NVZ9-1288US

First the specs, since I couldn't find any specifics anywhere (even on the MSI site). This is what mine specifically came with. Your mileage may vary, depending on how you configure it. Also it seems like this page just gets updated as they upgrade this model, so as of JAN 2024, mine came configured as follows:Motherboard: MSI PRO B760-VC WIFIProc: i7-13700F 2.1 GHzMemory: Kingston Fury DDR5-5600 (16GB (2x8), Part Number KF556C40BB-8, Timing 40-40-40 @ 1.25V)NVME: MSI M450 SPATIUM (2TB, PCIe Gen 4, 3600 MB/s)Display Adapter: MSI Ventus RTX 4060 TI (8GB, OC)Power Supply: 650W (80 PLUS Gold, don't remember mfg)Windows 11 ProIt should be noted that I immediately removed the Kingston and installed Corsair Vengeance (64GB CMH64GX5M2B6400C32). The following information may be affected by that.I didn't do extensive benchmarks, just quick 3DMark runs:VRS T1: 880 Off / 1310 OnMesh Shader: 243 Off / 454 OnTime Spy: Score 13611 (Test 1 - 88FPS, Test 2 - 76 FPS, Physics - 48 FPS)Solar Bay: Score 61614 (Test 1 238 FBS, Test 2 - 238 FPS, Test 3 - 224 FPS) (This is a DX11 test, though.)Monitors are currently a Dell 32" Curved primary and two Sceptre 27" sidecars (don't judge me).Pros (in plain English)- Super quiet- For my use case (non-competitive gameplay and software development) performance is excellent- MSI BIOS is easy to use if you need to muck around in there (automatically detected and set the correct XMP profile for the new memory, though. Could have just been the default. I don't remember.)- No bloatware (Just MSI Center and GEForce preinstalled)- Included mouse and keyboard are functional, but I'm not using them- There is a second NVMe slot on the board, but it disables the SATA6 port. (How much storage do you ACTUALLY need? You're an insane person. There's only three drive slots in the thing.)- Comes with video card support installed. It's a rail that attaches to the case with three screws, so it is secure for a card this size.Cons- No 3.5 drive bays- Network driver isn't included by default in Windows 11 installation, so if you reinstall Windows, be sure to have the network driver available- After a reinstall, the system will automatically download the MSI Center and GEForce once you're connected to the internet. Can probably uninstall it, I don't know if it would pull it down again. MSI Center is one of those modular "swiss army applications" that tries to do a little bit of everything, but is ultimately redundant and not great at any of the things it does. It also conflicts with iCUE, so you'll need to work around that if you run into lighting issues with your Corsair stuff (if you have any).The Meh- LED fans if you're into that sort of thing.- Mouse and keyboard are "present". Keyboard is advertised as "mechanical-like" which means nothing. It's either mechanical or it isn't. And it isn't, but it works "fine".- No heatsink on NVMe, which is good or bad, depending on your school of thought. I haven't had any issues so far.- Excess cables are just kinda stuffed into the power supply basement. If you're adding anything (I threw in my old SSD to use as extra storage and because I had to pull some data off of it), you'll have to rip out that entire bundle of cables and hope you don't accidentally yank too hard on something that's already attached to something else. But there's really nowhere else for these to go unless you want them dangling in your case. (Hint: you don't.)- Cooling is adequate. Sitting idle, the CPU is holding at 30C and the GPU at 50C. You don't need liquid or an AIO for this.Pro TipIt ships with that expanding foam pack to support the video card. This can be tricky to remove. I suggest that you remove the video card support rail (the foam bag kinda swells around that and gets hung) and try to gently crush the foam toward the bottom of the case and AWAY from the motherboard. Don't push toward the board and don't push directly down without pulling away. Take it slow or you can break something.Solid little machine. It's not a beast. Don't fall for the "never buy MSI" or "never buy pre-built" mindset. If you have the time, patience, experience and money to build your own, go for it. But for the price, this machine is fine and you get a warranty so you aren't calling six different companies to RMA something if it breaks.

My last MSI died after almost 8-9 years so I came back to get another! It's fast to boot up and looks beautiful! I have not tried games on it yet but I believe it will run even better than my last one. The case is actually pretty easy to open up on the side where you can see the light and fan so it's pretty fast to make modifications. It's not too loud and runs pretty smooth doing everyday work on it. All in all it's a very nice desktop for what I use it for.

I really am enjoying this new system. It was very carefully packaged into a large box, so much so that it took 5-10 minutes just unboxing it, and I don't see a high chance that anyone would receive a broken computer based on the quality of the packaging. I only got it yesterday, so hopefully I will be able to add to this review in the future, but as of now, I have played Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War, and Minecraft Java (1.8.9 and 1.20.1). I got improved FPS from my previous system that had 16 GB DDR4 RAM, an AMD R9 4900HS, and an RTX 2060 Max-Q. On 1.8.9 Minecraft (with Optifine and other mods running) I was getting between 1800-2600 FPS with high-quality graphics enabled, on 1.20.1 I was able to get 200-300 FPS easily (I capped it for my monitor) with 16 chucks enabled. On Cold War with high graphics and ray tracing disabled, I was getting between 144 FPS (v-sync enabled, it can probably do more), and with Ray-Tracing enabled, I was getting easily 60 fps or more. On Fortnite, with Epic settings I get between 130-160 FPS average). Basically, I am satisfied with the purchase at the price point, and I'm enjoying my experience. In conjunction with this, I'm extremely impressed that the GPU never seems to surpass 60 degrees C, even under a high load (the highest I've seen yet was 55 degrees C). What's even more surprising is the fact that the fans barely make any noise at all. My own estimation (which might not be accurate since I'm merely testing it by ear) is that it's probably running the fans at less than 35 DB which is a huge improvement from my last system. Do keep in mind that this system is huge, though, which I personally like. But if you have a small space, expect to need a bigger desk to keep it on. Oh, and another thing! PLEASE INSTALL GEFORCE EXPERIENCE AND INSTALL GAME-READY DRIVERS!!! It will boost your FPS by tons and takes like 5 minutes to install. I was getting really bad FPS, then I installed Game Ready Drivers and it instantly fixed my problems. This tells me that the graphics drivers are probably very badly out of date, but this is EASILY fixed.Packaging/Shipping: 10/10Gaming: 10/10Noise/Thermals: 10/10Graphics Drivers: 3/10 before installing Game Ready Drivers, and 10/10 after installing them.Size: Freaking Huge (around 16 1/2 in.

PC arrived on March 2nd and we installed Discord, Steam and Pantheon, it was bought as a gaming PC. By April 15th it started crashing. Thirty minutes into playing Pantheon it would give the blue screen of death, shutdown and restart itself. Had to call Tech support for help, each and every time they were very helpful, unfortunately because the issue happens thirty minutes into playing Pantheon I had to hang up and play to see if the error was gone…it wasn’t. On April 18th they finally gave me an RMA to return the PC for them to check and fix…but I have to pay to ship it to them. Now to wait about three weeks to get it back hoping it was fixed and I’m not getting some refurbished one in its place.I have saved my serial number just in case

Very happy with the overall performance. Haven’t found a game yet that it won’t play at 60fps. My only two complaints are that the motherboard only has 2 RAM slots and 1M.2 slot. Otherwise for the money it’s hard to beat this prebuilt. Since it’s not proprietary it’s easy to upgrade any of the components.
