    This is a pretty good gaming laptop, however based on the specs and setup this should be cheaper. Graphics are good with some lag on the higher setting but overall it did the job. Due to only running windows 10 home, your left with several unused tasks, so to get those you need pro instead. Also 8gb of ram is so lame and if you increase the ram you void the warranty. Would recommend to a friend if the price drops or they put at least 16gb of ram.

    Screen quality is not the best the chassis is all plastic but seems good quality. The fans can get loud not the best thermal design wouldn't recommend for heavy gamers. I ended up taken it back to the store and ordering the Asus rog for 999.99 which seems to be built better in quality and also comes with the 9th gen i7 which is a better choice for about 180 more.

    This little guy can run most games I throw at it. l play a lot of racing/sim. driving games and it has no problems running them from medium to high graphics. Of course at its price points it's not going to be able to run most games at 60fps Ultra Super Duper Epic graphics, however for something to game on the go it is the perfect choice on a budget.
