Within two and a half decades, MSI has diversified their business operation strategy, extending their manufacturing portfolio to include end-user devices like All-in-One PCs, notebooks and desktop barebones systems. MSI however is still very much focused on designing and manufacturing mainboards and video cards, offering them at competitive prices while outfitting the designs with high quality overclock friendly components. While their -GD65 motherboards are not the top end of the lineup, MSI offers these as a perfect balance between value and enthusiast functionality.
