    Hi,

    I have a Msi Ge73 with Windows 10 and i want to know if it work fine with Linux ?
    The software like Steel serie engine (to custom led keyboard), Dragon center and game work ?
    If you are test Linux on this computer what do you think to compar with Windows.

    Thanks

    Linux will work but if you run into issues some of the members that are proficient in Linux can probably assist you.
    Those software are Windows-based so they will not work on Linux and there are no 3rd party app that can interact with those H/W functions.
    You can consider other options such as running a VMware, or do a dual boot using GRUB.

    Ok thanks for info.
    I think i continue with Windows if some software will be not compatible on Linux.
    Maybe in the futur i test it ;)
