    9 months after purchase temps continue to rise with max fan speed. Multiple crashes from thermal throttling and w key stopped working. Pretty sad had high expectations for a premium product from a reputable brand. Geek Squad informed me there was nothing they could do to help as I bought it through Best Buy and has a 1 year manufacturer warranty, however, they don’t have it in their system. Going through manufacturer now. Hopefully it can be fixed

    Hardware is good but not assembled too well, screen is having trouble as display/resolution is blacking out, shrinking, changing on application launch. Requires hard reboot to get back to normal.

    It is an OK laptop for gaming, for the price range, you can honestly find much better options. I feel there were certain specs that could’ve been changed and also with the route of going with an AMD was not my forte. If it was an Intel for that price I would be much more happier.
