MSI's MEG Trident X packs gaming-tower power into a chassis a fraction of the size, without levying an exorbitant price premium.

It's speedy and small, with surprisingly quiet fans.

While the Trident X may cast a small net, MSI's compact gaming PC does its job well, with top-notch performance at maximum settings and above-average upgrade potential.

The MSI MEG Trident X looks great, doesn't take up much space, and runs demanding games at top settings. It's not cheap, however.

A surprisingly affordable high-end rig.
Price ; Swappable side panel ; Slim, light chassis
Air-cooled processor ; Insides aren't much to look at
