One thing to note that people often don't mention, it technically doesn't have a second ssd slot. It comes with a 1tb but you would have to take it out and replace it with two 2230 M.2 ssds since the ssds have to face each other and only two 2230s can fit in there, not 2280s.
Fan noise and temps are often high so a repaste is highly recommended along with undervolting the CPU. Build quality is decent, don't know what the other comments are talking about but it's a sturdy and good feeling laptop. Keyboard feels great, screen is great, port selection is good, it can support upto 140W power delivery through USB-C so you can ditch the brick charger it comes with when travelling or taking it to class. I use the Anker 140W charger (keep in mind this charger supports 140W only if the laptop is the only thing plugged into it, so do your research if you can find a better one): https://www.anker.com/products/a2...40w-4-port
Ofc there's users complaining about BSOD but thankfully I've not had those problems. Recommend a clean install of windows and all the drivers (if you have iGPU problems, I recommend getting the drivers from MSI's website for it). It's a laptop with some noticeable compromises IMO but if you can get past those, its a solid gaming machine at a very enticing price-point that can last you a good couple of years until you might want to upgrade the RAM (if the prices ever come down).
I would say to keep in mind that other 5070ti laptops are often at a price point jump of $500 or even more and people can buy a whole other machine in that price gap alone so if you're chasing price-to-performance, technically nothing beats this deal.

This was already posted a short while back as well but hardly got any attention: https://slickdeals.net/f/18979078-msi-vector-16-inch-qhd-240hz-gaming-laptop-amd-ryzen-9-8940hx-nvidia-geforce-rtx-5070ti-16gb-ram-1tb-ssd-gray-2025-1299?src=SDSear
It has been this price for so long because this is mostly junk with the myriads of problems buyers have reported in this, such as one comment stating: "The device experiences frequent Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) errors, specifically DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION and ntoskrnl.exe failures. Despite clean driver installations, system latency remains high, causing significant stuttering and performance issues. Additionally, system-level installer windows (amdafapp.exe) appear repeatedly and cannot be dismissed, indicating a corrupted factory image or firmware instability."
For potential buyers, just because it's cheap doesn't mean it should be bought, try to research and read reviews before you do, because chances are you'll regret it.
