Pros:

Very good 3D and gaming performance with a Skylake I76820HK and GTX 970M, Intel's Skylake I76820HK has an open multiplier and can be easily overclocked, Very good thermals even with CPU overclocked to 3.4GHZ with no throttling in gaming. Can even go highe...

Cons:

The GTX 970M clocks are limited by power limitations and/or MSI suboptimal algorithms (but mostly in Furmark Prime95), Keyboard is strangely mediocre, unlike the previous generation keyboard, with low resistance and feedback, UPDATE: Not sure about TB3.No...

Well, mixed feelings. First of all, the performance / price ratio isn't as good as previous GT72 Dominator G with Broadwell CPU. For $1800-$1900 you also get a 128GB NVMe SSD + beg + headphone, but all of these are maybe worth $100, maybe a little more....
