If you have the time, you can also set the RBG per key. The keyboard itself has a nice fluid action and is quiet on keypress. OK MSI, why did I have to go to RGB settings to discover this was a SteelSeries Keyboard? While that partnership has been a rich one, MSI completely understated this one. Whilst I will always recommend ethernet, if this is not an option, you can definitely do worse than the WiFi module in this laptop. To put it in perspective, I have another laptop connected to the 2.4hgz output and its constant battles for connectivity while the Raider had no issues. It is difficult to quantify stability when gaming, as it's all about relative game play. For me there was a noticeable stability on the network performance. In order to take advantage of this you need a WiFi6 Router which fortunately I have. The first key feature this Laptop has is the WiFi6E. Overall it has all the right lines, aggressive (but still classy) gaming profile and does not have that hollow plastic feel many gaming laptops have. Even the front Aurora RGB strip is encased in a hard resin and flows seamlessly into the build. MSI has definitely put a lot of care into the design of this laptop. Despite my hardest efforts, I could not find any design shortcuts or cost savings. While this hinge may be a small detail, it was the first thing I noticed and wrote down as something that impressed me. It's perfectly rigid (I opened it and closed it almost for fun at a stage). When you open and close the lid, there is no jitter when it has been moved. The laptop lid is also edged in metal with the most amazing and fluid hinges. The lid and bottom are plastic, while the keyboard panel is a cool metal. Its composition is that of plastic and metal, but in the right places.

Its chunkier weight is not a negative as it creates a more robust and solid feel. The laptop weighs in at 2.9kgs which is slightly ‘over average’ for a 17 inch gaming laptop. Unboxing a laptop is much like the excitement seen in my cat when a tin of tuna is opened - there is a palpable air of anticipation of things to come. Like a child on christmas, the design experience started for me when unboxing the laptop. I hope this review gives you the insight to see whether this notebook is the one for you. I found this laptop quite frustrating, as I wanted to find massive flaws especially as it's my first review that will be posted.

That being said, when paying a considerable amount of money for any technology, you need to do your research and trust what a reviewer says about it. I warn you in advance that I tend to be over technical in reviews.
