MSI Nightblade MI3 Intel Kabylake B250 Chipset i7/i5/i3/Pentium DDR4 Intel Optane Support Gaming Desktop Barebone PC

Ultra small PC. This is a barebones system that will require a CPU (Socket 1151), Memory SODimms DDR4, CD/DVD drive that is 9.5mm in thickness - any thicker will not work. You will also need a video card which I used a GTX970 card as all my games run fine with that setup.I ended up with a Intel Gen 6 i7 cpu, 16 gig of ram and a 512g M.2 PCI3 hard drive for the OS and applications and a 3tb 3.5" drive for storage.Makes for a nice compact machine that does not take much space and can really be put just about anywhere.Very happy with the item

Well designed. Works great.

This PC is horrible. We ordered it two times and both times the product didn't work! It wouldn't even power up. Don't waste your time and money.

OMG how can a company this size not have the basics worked out!? I bought this MSI Nightblade from Fry's Feb 18, I now have returned it for fixes + have more issues by Dec 18. I understand computers can have problems, but dealing with MSI is half of the issue alone!Broken website, with terrible support chat.. Can't even reply to support!? Let alone support hardly offering "helpful advice".. My display driver took a dump on me Nov 18, I tried to submit a repair request through their website, couldnt even do that. So I took it in assuming theyd have a process for walk-ins lol nope!The tech came across the street from some random building, didn't believe my pc was still under warranty (eventhough its clearly registered on their crappy website..) made me find receipts, then drive down a block and drop off to a different facility.I got my desktop back a week later with no response as to what the issue was (I am assuming display driver) I called support and they couldnt even tell me the issue SMH2 days after getting it back, the bluetooth driver takes a crap on me.. I live 5 hours from MSI and work from this machine, so its hard to be without my desktop for over a week.I email support, and they say "please reinstall windows with the MSI USB you are supposed to have ready" wtf? Is this standard PC BS? you know a company offers a crap product when they expect you to have a backup drive ready at all times in case their failed product does exactly that.. FAIL.. Never again MSI
