MSI computers?

[WoodPeckr]

Looking to get a new desktop to replace an aging 17 year old first generation Dell i7 XPS. This i7 has served me well over the years but is showing its age.

Saw this MSI Tower at Costco running $1,499.99 : https://www.costco.com/p/-/msi-code...ndows-11-home---32gb-ram---2tb-ssd/4000375972
It has nice specs. Wondering if it was serve as well. Know little about MSI. Not a gamer but want something that will last. So looking for some thoughts?

MSI is generally pretty good as far as components go, about as reliable as any of the other major brands that are equally as good

It is a good deal. If you are not a gamer then you could get something without a video card and use the integrated graphics of the CPU. The video card probably adds ~$500-600 to the price.

I have an MSI laptop; MSI is a reputable brand. If you're not a gamer, you won't need the RTX 5060TI GPU. Look for a PC with lower GPU specs and save $500-$600.

true but even at that price point it's not too bad even with the gpu

They use to make good motherboards, I assume their PC's should be good quality.

I have a few MSI parts in my current desktop and they've been going pretty strong. If their PC's are the same quality then I'd wager they're pretty good too
