With just a few caveats. It's well-built and competently designed. I have no problem downloading pdf docs, so the cost of doing a better job should be minimal.
Water rig makes for a very clean build, and less stress on the motherboard. Works with icue no brainer. Icue software lets me customize the lighting to match my setup.

Price
A bit pricey for the looks, great cooling, amazing contact with cpu, never runs hot.
- face plate can be replace with a lcd later- great price for the performance

I ended up getting this corsair aio instead and i will probably sell my msi replacement unit.
