I have INSANELY low standards for what i recognize as reasonable person, which is why its so surprising you cant meet them.

Not surprised you consider a typo the peak of folly though. Maybe you spilled your covfefe this morning?

Spent the last 2 nights building a factory around a resource node, and they just randomly removed it. Not particularly pleased with the update so far

Didnt they find out about the backpack floor BECAUSE one of the customers wore through the floor? I believe i remember linus telling them that "wasnt possible" or something to that effect before recieving the backpack in question and finding out the manufacturer removed the second layer they had requested because they thought it was a mistake

To start with, i am in no way saying you build is junk, or that you are likely to start having problems. If it already works you are likely golden

Im often the "tech friend" for a lot of people, so ive built about 20-30 custom systems, usually with an assortment of different parts, and so far MSI has been the cause of every single show stopper to date. Ill list a couple examples, but these were just my experiences, and i dont build nearly as many pcs as i used to, so they may be better now, ive just personally no longer trust them.

1 Built a system for my roomate with a high end msi motherboard. Told him to go with the newer gen processor it supported while we were at microcenter because it was the same price, and i assumed the board would have a way to update the bios without a processor in it, since it was a high end board, and this feature was already pretty common on most boards. I should have checked, because i was wrong, had to make another trip back to microcenter to exhange processors

2 wanted a white motherboard for a snowblind case (you should look this up if you dont know what it is, they are neat), and msi had the only pure white one available that was sub 1000$ at the time. I double checked before i left the store that the motherboard supported the ryzen 3000 series processor i was getting, and was able to update the bios without a processor before i left the store. Turns out, they pulled the bios that supported ryzen 3000 series due to bugs and never released it again, or updated the store page. Had to go back to the and replace it with an older cpu again.

3 guided a friend through building his own pc. Everything went super well, he was a natural, and we spent the rest if the night playing FTL. A couple days later he brought it to me because it would lose display seemingly at random until a hard reboot was done. Turns out the brand new msi 3080 in it had a faulty vram module, and it worked fine until that module was filled up, causing the display to cut out, but everything else continued to function as if nothing was wrong. This was one of the hardest to diagnose issues ive come accross to date.

Ive had one or two other issues, but those are the ones are the most memorable
