Please make a review of the Lenovo Legion T5 26AMR5. I am using it right now and I must say as a prebuilt hater, this PC was actually worth its money. Got it for 1350 Euros back in October. GPU sitting on 25C! Very quiet. No high temperatures. Good airflow. And there was no bloatware on the PC expect for the Lenovo Legion app, but you kinda need it for RGB, Dolby Atmos On/Off, etc. Also there are thermal pads on everything like RAM, SSD, power delivery components on the mainboard. Comes with five case fans. Only downside really that is has limited IO. Otherwise really enjoying the computer.

MSI used to be my go to motherboard and GPU company. That was until I started researching and buying components for my newest build in 5 years. Then reviewers were telling us that the VRM's had thermal issues in the MoBo's I was considering so I decided to try another manufacturer that had better reviews. Now after this and other reviews I wonder if I can trust MSI for anything?! I work too hard for my money to throw it away on shoddy components let alone a prebuilt. Thank you MSI for encouraging me to try other manufacturers which have not failed to impress me.

to be fair, the msi 2060 super backplate protects the PCB from customer induced damage; its mostly there to reduce RMA's from users that have dropped screws on the backside while its powered on. Havent seen any temperatures of VRM in any GPU of recent generations particularly bad, with the exception of the asus rx 580/590 rog strix, which, while it does have exceptional gpu core cooling, the VRM will thermal throttle especially when increasing the power limit (I regularly see 110C on VRM when stress testing with OCCT and Furmark on those models)

6:43 The msi ventus cards have been the worst gpus coolers that i have ever seen (super tall and small thermal pads for the memory, with different heights on the cooler for the memory area and there's even metal spacers that prevents good thermal contact with the die) these cards perform the same thermally as blower coolers, what's funny is that msi also makes the gaming x cards which are the polar opposite in terms cooler design, just well though out and overall more than what you would ever want.

G'day Steve,
Ah yes Glass is 'The Best Dust Filter' while still seeing your RGB, my guess is the GPU didn't suffer as much as CPU because MSI forgot to add the PCIe Slot TG Dust Filter Inserts in the unused slots leaving the GPU to Breath External Air through those Vented ones,
When you said there were 2 columns titled Good & Bad I thought they would look like this
Good Bad
Not Proprietary Parts Everything Else

MSI usually screws up with power managing. I have a MSI Laptop and it was like having a piece of the sun in your hands until you adjust the power limits. Just by reducing 5% the maximum power amount of the CPU reduced the temps of the CPU from 90+C to 60-70C, with minimal performance loss. I don't know who makes the power profiles for MSI, but it's a catastrophe...

there is no watchdog or any overseeing body that one can report the low standards and dubious practises by big companys and those that do exist are in the pocket of the big companys.
its good to see people like yourself takeing them on but sadly unless an offical body is set up to deal with this that has teeth its going to keep happening.

MSI Ordering Team: Oh, Steve from Gamers Nexus is ordering a computer from us, how could we make it hilarious? Let's look at all this videos and see what all the other companies have did bad, and let's do it all in one computer!
Manager: Did you remember to hot glue the USB 3.0 connector?
Co-worker: Shit, we already sent it out.

I have this Ventus card, but 2070S. Other than the card itself, it's exactly as the one in a video: plastic backplate, same fans. It's a hot hot card and cheapest in it's category. Plus my OC is never too stable, so I guess they put worse silicon on Ventus cards. Not recommending.
