1 of 5 Think Twice before Shopping Here! November 18, 2024
Reviewer: Angela Walker from Queensbury, NY United States  
I purchased an MSI Raider gaming laptop from GenTechPC, for nearly $3,000 in October. As soon as I received it, I notified Ken (one-man company?) that the sound system was defective. He acknowledged and told me I'd have an RMA number by end-of-day... and then he ghosted me. He refuses my calls and emails, and I've been forced to dispute the charge with my bank - a long and slow process, during which I have no usable laptop because this one is all packed-away in perfect condition, ready for return, as required per the Returns Page of this website. The other one-star review from the end of October used to say something similar before the text was mysteriously changed down to one single character. That guy said he paid for his laptop but it was never sent out, despite contacting Ken many times. I would avoid spending ANY money with this website right now because something fishy is clearly going on with the owner.

4 of 5 Powerful, but with a few technical hiccups to boot October 12, 2024
Reviewer: Chad Wuttke from West Allis, WI United States  
After my old gaming laptop had its sound card and GPU killed after a power surge caused by its AC adapter when part of the cable started to tear and short circuit, I knew I was due for an upgrade on the hardware side of things. Despite the initial technical troubles that I had with this new laptop and ultimately managed to fix (audio clipping and stuttering caused by DPC latency spikes, a broken Windows 11 update preview that left my laptop in an unusable state, forcing me to do a factory reset using the recovery drive that I ordered, and one instance where my RTX 4080 GPU wasn't working properly, which thankfully, recent updates for Windows 11 version 24H2 and a microcode patch that I applied saved it), my new MSI laptop is a big, powerful gaming machine that is able to play pretty much anything I can throw it at high or ultra settings while maintaining a solid framerate, and it has HDR for video streaming as well.
