I bought the Gtx1060 | I5 | 8gb | 1tb option for 750USD (summer sale). All games run at 1080p60fps on Ultra settings and can even play at 4k60fps on medium-ultra settings. The CPU temperatures rarely reach 80C and the GPU rarely reaches 75C. The HDD is a bit slow but it's bearable and not ruining the useability of this PC. The startup is fast for a HDD and only takes a minutes or less.
The MSI Trident 3 is loaded with a bunch of preinstalled software, some of them might be useful for some, but useless for others, but that can be fixed with a clean installation of Windows 10, or by simply deleting the software that's not necessary. I personally deleted some and kept others. And all the drivers are installed so everything is ready to be used, but some of them need to be updated.
Overall i'm very satisfied with this product; reasonable price, amazing small form-factor, not too heavy, fast operating system, games play really well, the included keyboard and mouse are a very nice touch and they're actually high quality. I dislike that the pc doesn't have a clean install of windows 10 but that isn't a big issue. the keyboard is RGB, and has 3 modes for lighting: off, on and breathing effect, you can't change the colors sadly, but you can change the brightness. The lights on the mouse cannot be changed, the color is red, and the brightness is not adjustable.
Everything i dislike about this rig and the included hardware can be easily fixed or isn't a huge problem, so very satisfied with this purchase.
