Budget Beast!
I am very happy with the overall performance that I’m getting from it.. For the price I don’t think that there is much else. The ddr5 RAM is blazing fast, but the measly 8gb it comes with is not enough to do any even remotely serious gaming. But I bought A 16gb stick of ddr5 RAM, and installed it easily in 5 minutes or so. I can’t believe how good (and fast) this thing is. I have all the video setting turned up to HIGH in Battlefield V, and still regularly/consistently get 120-144fps!! It’s crazy what a difference that makes, after I got used to getting 40fps at the very most, with all the video setting down to MEDIUM.. Would recommend this laptop to anyone who’s looking for a sub-$1000 gaming laptop that has an AMD Ryzen 7 CPU with Radeon graphics, a Nvidia RTX 3060 ti graphics card, a 500GB SSD (with an additional, empty ssd slot, so anyone can easily supplement the 500GB SSD that it comes with. I haven’t upgraded the SSD yet, and after installing 4 games and maybe 10 apps, I literally have 14GB of free space on the hard drive. This is a great way for a gamer on a budget to play virtually any PC game, with the video settings set on medium-high…

Great gaming laptop but it does have heating issue
Great overall gaming laptop I'm happy with it only complain I have is the overheating I'm running in high 80s and that's with a cooling pad!!!!! The only game I have on as of now is world of warcraft and it has no problem graphic wise all it's great I snapped a picture after that I stopped and let it cool off it kinda scary anyone have any thoughts of how to tackle this issue other than that I'm pleased!!!

Great laptop, decent gaming laptop
Great laptop, runs everything I need it to with no lag and on higher graphics settings. One complaint is the fan is very loud and laptop gets hot even on cooling mat. Not a dealbreaker though. Biggest complaint is two very bright lights on top of laptop do not turn off if laptop is charging, visible even when lid is closed, have to cover with black tape.

INATALL 8GB OF RAM FIRST, THIS LAPTOP IS AMAZING
Amazing computer, its such a blessing. I came from playstation and made my switch to PC. Best decision to switch to this laptop. Just PLEASE make sure you install 8GB of ram into the computer before using to play. I have 16gb of ram and it runs smoothly. I usually have Dead by daylight open, discord open on a call with my camrea on and a browser with 5 tabs and YouTube open. The fans do really well with the work load its given. (If anyones wondering what ram stick i used, its called "Crucial RAM 8GB DDR5 4800MHz" i bought it on amazon :) If youre looking for a low budget gaming laptop, this is definitely the one for you! Have fun gamers :^D

Excellent build and performance for price
At this price point (sale @ 600+) specs are undeniably far better than almost all offerings from other brands. With the savings you can add in the remaining available slots. In my case I added another 8GB RAM and 500GB SSD. Only thing I dont want is the battery. Fast draining even on power saving mode. Display is not stellar but pretty good. Actual performance is excellent (on 16GB RAM and upgraded SSD setup)
