    It's a nice laptop. It just can't run some games that are too demanding

    I am not a gamer and actually purchased this for remote work. The display is great and I can fit 2 windows I am working on side-by-side. I purchased a gaming laptop in order to have enough processing, memory and storage for my needs without having to do any upgrades. I am very happy with my purchase and have not had any issues. I like the red backlit keyboard as the blue stresses my eyes.

    I was looking around for a laptop to work, but I am also a gamer. I started looking around for a pc right when my ps4 broke down, mad and frustrated that the ps5 is hard to grab I said great time to begin as a pc gamer. I am happy how everything turned out the speed is amazing graphics are beyond my expectations. I recommend it for gamer anyone working and looking for a fast reliable laptop.

    Everyone told me about this bad boy and I did give it a try... and because it's a good price, why not? Thanks to this machine and its really good specs, I was finally able to play that one game on steam that I couldn't on my old one- Disneyland Adventures! This laptop also has a great red keyboard and a good screen.. it's really good stuff. Give this guy a try. You won't be disappointed.

    For $800 you get ALOT. The 17" 1080p screen looks great, the new 10th gen i5 and nvidia 1650ti with the 8gb of ram and 500gb ssd let me run alot of my games at max settings smoothly. Far cry 3 is a good example. I haven't tried anything newer yet. The red backlit keyboard (not rgb) looks and works fine and feels good. The cooling system is the real star here....separate fans for gpu/cpu and two exhaust ports each keep this thing quiet and only slightly warm when loaded down. Build quality and design are very nice as well. The Nitro Sense button and app are perfect...they let you control fan speeds and qive quick access to nvidia updates. I plan to put 32gbs of 3200 ddr4 ram in it soon! Get this laptop for a quick affordable mobile pc gaming solution!

    This is a great laptop, very fast and perfect for gaming. I love how fast it loads games and how quick the response time is. The only issues I have with it are that the letters are smudging off the WASD keys because I play many games where I have to press them. The other issue is that is has light screen bleed. Other than that it is absolutely perfect.
