    Guarantee MSI, I don't know who is to blame, but for whatever reason, the Windows did not recognize the Ethernet and WiFi during installation, and we had to struggle to find a solution. However, everything else is good, low temperatures, stable, and compatible with everything. Plenty of ports and options, easy BIOS. In short, MSI is great!
