    The truth is I used this computer for a week and even with cooling it is too hot. And its battery doesn't last more than 30 minutes. It freezes a lot and the wifi is too unstable. I definitely had to return it.

    It’s a good laptop, I was lucky enough to get an open box deal on it so that made it worth it. The laptop tends to get extremely hot when running most games, if you get it I would invest in a good cooling pads as well. All in all not bad, but I would not have bought it for full price.

    Not sure if its the refresh rate or just the wifi but when streaming games there's a line that goes down the screen when it refreshes the graphics. other than that its a great laptop

    This is a well-balanced choice; I recommend an external cooling device. While playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, the temperature was high, causing my Bluetooth headset to disconnect. I purchased an additional laptop cooling device, and now I can play games without any issues.
