Got this at the end year last year. It’s still a great machine plays all the latest games at high frame rate.
Con: it’s loud. Even at gaming lap top standards

The performance you get from this laptop at this price cannot be beat. Has great thermals also so it doesn’t feel like your touching the sun while gaming. I highly recommend this purchase for those looking for a gaming laptop.

Love this pc, it runs anything and everything very smoothly. My only complaint is the battery life is super short, an hour or so unplugged while gaming. It also slows down performance when almost out of battery.

I haven't actually even tried gaming on this machine yet, but it seems like a very fast machine compared to what I've used in the past. The way the keyboard lights up is a nice touch, a little bonus, and customizable.

This laptop has the specs that will keep you gaming for a while. As spec’d the laptop will run games at 160 fps with no worry. The expandability will allow for adding additional storage and ram when the time comes.

It is a really good display with a really nice 240 ghz refresh rate. It works really nice with the video card that isnt inigrated. The 1tb hard drive space is a good bonus to the who deal.

Works amazing right out of the box! Screen flickers with black boxes occasionally, not sure exactly why, but besides that it’s great!

I picked this laptop during the president day sale paying just over 1600 after taxes. Overall quite pleased with the performance. It’s a powerful laptop being able to keep up with the higher end laptops which are set about 1000- 2000 more than then what I paid. It’s has a turbo button that kicks up the gpu performance to max while still keeping the laptop cool. Can easily power through all your HD gaming needs for max quality without dropping a frame. Only down size is the fan noise that sounds like a jet taking off a runaway which can be quite annoying. Would recommending using a head set while using the turbo mode for those more demanding games. Other than the fan noise this model is major improvement from its predecessor.

Great laptop. Runs most games on ultra settings no problem. Runs hot too like most gaming laptops, but the turbo cools it down really well. A little loud but no big deal for me.

great laptop, built like a tank. for this price range its much more robust than the others. Touch pad could be better as it bounces if you tap it quick & it needs a battery limiter. At this price there should be zero overcharging issue. other than that this laptop is a great buy. compare to others & see it in person at the store. You wont be dissapointed.

This thing is blazing fast. Runs overwatch 2 at max fps and plays PUBG great also. Be prepared to be suprised at how well the air flow is… with that being said, it’s really loud.

I bought it after jarrod's review on gaming laptops and I don't regret my choice. It is best for gaming. Battery life is kinda short but not my problem cause I'm using it at home all day.
