Madness. Specially that power supply.

Wow...I never expected such I specs.
I suppose gaming needs more processing power....but still....

This does look like a great laptop for laptop buyers who plan on spending $5000 on a laptop, and don't want an Apple Macbook Pros and Alienware laptop which are overrated.

I like the power supply and laptop case for this MSI laptop since it looks like it is very durable, and is less likely to fall apart after using it regularly for a few years.

But, I feel for $5000, a Desktop Gaming PC with a Intel Core i9 would be better, and you can spend the money savings on a faster video card, larger SSD, or a huge library of PC games from Steam, GOG, and EA Origins.

why do you feel they are overrated?

You are paying mostly for the brand and not for the hardware itself.

You mostly be right, but in this case the i9, 1 TB of SSD, that power supply is a good 30-50% of that thing's cost.

I feel buyers are mostly paying for the brand, case design, and how cool it is to own. Some of the hardware like LCD display is 17.3 inches which seems small for such an expensive laptop. I feel it should come with a 2 TB SSD, or two 1TB SSD instead of 1TB SSD and 1TB hard drive.

honestly, most people just need a small ssd slaved to a HDD.

This is true most users are fine with a SSD and slave hard drive.

But, I feel most buyers who buy this laptop would want a larger 2 TB SSD because this laptop cost a lot of money.

I wonder how much is the produce cost of that thing and how much their profit from it. Seems over hyped and price.

I assume build cost have to be at least 2k.
