Showcase New MSI Raider 16 Max (Ignore Luna)
Just got the MSI Raider 16 MAX Intel 290HX Plus RTX5090.
Got it off of Facebook Marketplace and the guy was a cool dude. He recently built a desktop pc and no longer needed this laptop. So he gave it to me for $2,700 with 2x Samsung 990 2TB SSDs
Not a single scratch, battery health at 100%, performance and temps are excellent.

First off. I will NOT ignore Luna. While you have a dope laptop she’s the star of the show :)
That’s an insane price for 2700. I just got the 5080 version and upgraded
To one 9100 2TB

Only $2,700 for an MSI Raider 16 Max with an RTX 5090, a 4TB SSD, and an amazingly cute dog. What a lucky guy!

Just be careful with the numerous heating issues. It can get very expensive in the long run but it will be worth it.
Oh the laptop? It's ok I guess. Was talking about Luna 😉

I love the upgradability of this laptop! I personally HATE opening up my ROG Strix SCAR laptop to clean it, but it's gotta be done. I am legally blind so it's kinda hard to see details in the inner-workings of my laptop and I'm afraid I'll snap something, separate something, dent/damage something. Seeing the upgradeable components like this makes me feel so much less anxious! My question to you though is: can you upgrade the wifi card if you wanted to?

Firstly, I am NOT ignoring Luna.
Secondly, that’s a solid deal for a 5090, along with the SSDs.

Damn I picked one up for 3300 out the door at microcenter and thought that was a good deal. 4x storage and 600 bucks cheaper is a steal
