So far, my best game laptop ever!!!!

I wanted a very fast and reliable laptop to play a few games on my spare time. I am very happy with its performance. It is the fastest laptop have I ever owned. And I have several 17" i7 Quad core CPU laptops purchased in 2012 and 2013! The only thing I don't like is its size. I have a 17.3" HP Envy 3D series laptop and a 17.3" Razer Blade notebook, both are smaller than my new MSI laptop.
