MSI Aegis ZS Gaming Desktop, AMD Ryzen 7 7700, GeForce RTX 4060, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, RGB Fan Cooling, Wi-Fi 6E, Keyboard & Mouse Included, DIY Friendly, Windows 11 Home-Adv:…

Just wrote a long ass review and Amazon app just deleted it. So it’s ok. Came broken, but works.

I bought this during the Prime Days sale. I wanted something that could grow more the than the MiniPC I’ve been using. I’m only a casual gamer, but am a software architect so a solid PC is a requirement for my work. For me the RTX4060 is plenty, but I can always update later. The Ryzen 7700 (not 7700X) is slightly more powerful than the MiniPC’s 7840HS (a laptop processor) – unnoticeably so… But again it can be upgraded and the motherboard can be updated to even Ryzen 8000 series, or what I plan to – the 7950X (a 16 core, 32 thread beast). The included 16 GB(2x 8GB) though just doesn’t make sense these days, and woefully inadequate for my needs as I may have 3 or 4 versions of Visual Studio, plus Word, browser windows, development tools, and emulators all going at the same time. That brings me to the reason I took 1 star away — the MSI website for this PC is WRONG. The motherboard is not a PRO B650-VC WIFI but a PRO B650-VC WIFI II (note the II at the end). The biggest difference being that the II has 2 memory slots, and the non-II has 4. My thought was to add RAM to bring it up to at least 32 for the time being, but seeing as the RAM had to be replaced, I went ahead and purchased 96GB (2X 48GB sticks).

It is a great product to start with games

Title: “MSI Aegis ZS: Where Ryzen Meets RTX Magic!”

Introduction:
🎮🚀 As a gamer with a penchant for pixelated quests and adrenaline-fueled battles, I recently embarked on a cosmic journey with the MSI Aegis ZS Gaming Desktop. Buckle up, fellow gamers, because this review is about to teleport you to a realm where AMD Ryzen and Nvidia RTX hold hands and dance under the neon glow of RGB stars.

1. The Cosmic Chassis: Aesthetics Beyond Earth

The Aegis ZS isn’t just a desktop; it’s a spaceship waiting to launch. Its sleek black chassis, adorned with futuristic angles and glowing accents, screams, “I’m ready for warp speed!” The front panel, like a stargate, reveals the MSI dragon emblem, promising both power and mystique. And that tempered glass side panel? It’s like peering into a wormhole where gaming legends are born. 🌌🔮

2. The Galactic Hardware Ensemble: Ryzen Unleashed

Inside this celestial sanctuary, the hardware deities convene:
AMD Ryzen 7 7700: The cosmic conductor orchestrating the symphony of cores and threads. Multitasking? Child’s play.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060: The pulsar heart of this rig. It doesn’t just render pixels; it weaves dreams. Ray tracing? More like ray surfing.
16GB HyperX Fury RAM: Because even cosmic beings need memory.
1TB NVMe SSD (MSI Spatium M371): Warp-speed storage for your interstellar game library.

3. The Nebula of Customer Tech Support: Wizards in Headsets

Now, let’s talk about the MSI tech sorcerers who guard the cosmic gates. When my GPU quivered during a boss fight, I summoned them like a desperate mage. And behold:

– Quantum Patience: They listened as I rambled about frame drops and pixel constellations. Never once did they sigh or say, “Have you tried turning it off and on again?”
– Starlight Solutions: These wizards wielded troubleshooting spells like pros. “Update your drivers,” they whispered. “Cleanse your registry,” they chanted. And poof! My GPU soared like a comet.
– Cosmic Humor: “Why did the GPU enroll in astronomy class? To learn how to overclock the Milky Way!” they quipped. But beneath the jokes lay cosmic wisdom.

4. Conclusion: The Aegis ZS Odyssey

In the grand cosmic tapestry, the MSI Aegis ZS isn’t just a desktop; it’s a **stardust-fueled odyssey**. Whether you’re conquering alien worlds or editing cat videos (because even astronauts need a laugh), this rig transcends pixels. And when the supernovas align, remember the tech sorcerers—the Gandalfs of gaming—who make it all possible.

So, fellow spacefarers, raise your RGB-lit wands and toast to the Aegis ZS! 🌠🪄
