The parts are fantastic, top quality and high performance. You can run the latest games on ultra settings with almost no lag. The case is decent in size, looks very good, and you can upgrade your parts without too many problems.
However, there are two problems:
Problem easily solved: buy a few case fans and maybe also a new cpu cooler and you're done, but these are of course extra costs on top.
Problem 2: If, like me, you always like to buy the best of the best in things that aren't terribly expensive, you're out of luck, the best CPU coolers, for example, don't fit in this case. The best noctua cpu cooler is about 168 mm wide, the case from motherboard to glass plate about 158: bad luck.
A few more useful things I couldn't find anywhere online: Fan exhausts: Rear: 1 x 120mm Front: 2 times 140 mm Top: 2 times 140 mm
2 storage drive bays are in the front of the PC, not exactly useful if you don't plan to turn it into a server as I don't think many people are going to use more than 1 Tb SSD, they are stuck with rivets and block the front case fans partly (there are openings in the drive bays for air to pass through)
(A third problem) that is completely off the PC, but still good to know: the MSI software is terrible, and has more bugs than the rainforest. For example, I can't control my RGB through their brand new Dragon Center as the mystic light app won't show up there. Depends on MSI though, not this specific computer.

It contains good hardware and can be seen as a good basis for expansion

This review is about the i9 - 128GB - 2TB + 3TB - RTX3090. What a beast of a machine. Definitely no regrets so far. I should be able to move forward with this for a while.
