This laptop is fast, sleek, and durable. It does run a little hot when plugged up and used for long periods of time.

We purchased this for our 16 yr old son for school. We wanted something where he could do his work and yet play games. We didn't want to spend $1500+ so we did some checking and read reviews and picked this unit. He loves it and it seems to be pretty good according to him at least! It doesn't play the mega graphics, but it does decent...

This is the first gaming laptop for my son, he used mostly PS4 so far but now he is doing more PC games and learning to work and navigate a computer. It is good that we have this one now already for a month or so and he is up to speed so he could also use it now as the school work and projects start online in the upcoming days. We already spoke with few teachers from his school and soon there will be projects and work to be done from home so we are happy to have this PC ready to rock and roll (not only for games but also for educational projects and work).
