    The laptop can run games pretty well, there are some frame skips on higher settings which is to be expected. It boots up and runs really fast because of the SSD. The display does has some poor viewing angles but it is not a big deal if you are looking at it head on. The only real issue I have with the laptop is sometimes the track pad is finicky but that issue is easily fixed with a wireless mouse.

    I originally wanted to make this laptop into my mid range traveling pc. It was very nice to see a gaming laptop this cheap that could run a good deal of games. I had minor issues as I ran bigger titles but they worked. Then yesterday I woke up and my pc wouldn't turn on any more. So I returned it and since my beatbuy doesn't have anything in im gonna upgrade to msi while it's on sale.

    I ended up returning this laptop, due some lagging when access online platform systems like Jira, TestRail. Slow when using Visual Studio as well. However it did okay when I played some games on Steam platform like CS GO, L4D2 etc. I guess you’re getting what you pay for it. If you need to do some coding, and play some high end games this laptop it’s not enough.
