Review Summary

Rated 4 out of 5

4.5 Stars

Very satisfied with this little powerhouse, if you can find it in stock with a 3080, get it. One drawback I did notice is that for some reason the performance of any graphics card, in this kit loses some performance? I have tried a couple. The msi 3080 seems to perform better when plugged directly into the motherboard on my secomd system. I have not bothered to investigate but I am guessing the gpu in this case connects via a riser or some other proprietary MSI solution, which affects performace? Nevertheless, the little drop in performance is easily overcome by many of the other positives e.g. compactness, design, portability, upgradability, vs. many of the pre-builts out there.
