Hello max1342;

That laptop might be two weeks old but it is a 2010 model.
All the current MSI models have the 2nd Gen Core i CPUs and I think MSI is now shipping the GTX 560 GPUs.

Google Shopping turned up NO hits on the MSI GT663 which is highly unusual.
Nothing on Amazon or Ebay either. Most unusual.
I don't know what to make of that, especially as he bought his only 2 weeks ago.

Where did he get his laptop and what, if any, are the issues if he wanted to return it for a refund?

my question is why is your friend ditching this for a mac

 

[max1342]

he is ditching it because he is getting too addicted to gaming, kinda dont understand why he bought it, the plastic is on it too, and the thing here is that people want to buy it off him for $1000 since he opened it, and he bought it in indonesia, and to buy a brand new one here is round about $2200
