    A Great Affordable Gaming Laptop

    So far this laptop has been nothing but good to me. The specs are solid and they hold up well under strain. I always have a lot of things going on at once on my laptop (movies, games, 20 plus browser windows at the same time) and it hasn't even hiccupped it has always kept up. I've been playing The Witcher 3 and Skyrim on it and they automatically play at very high settings while still being smooth. The battery life is terrible but that's to be expected and the cooling system keeps the laptop reasonably warm bet that vent on the side spews fire. Other than that I am thoroughly enjoying my laptop.

    I'd previously purchased an Alienware computer and was extremely disappointed when it started falling apart at less than two years old. When I looked into replacing it, this computer was faster, had more memory, had more hard drive space, and was cheaper than what I originally paid for a lesser computer! Despite my hesitations about Windows 10, I love the way this computer preforms.

    Bought this for hubby as a traveling companion. Haven't heard any complaints yet so I'm guessing it's OK. He's not the most tech savy and is not amused by Win10. This sucker is HUGE! My old 17" HP LT does not seem this big. Love the backlit keyboard, but wish it had a setting to stay on in the dark--lol.

    Little slow at start up but other than that it's what I paid for and more. I bought it to get back into wow with old RL friends and this machine can run on ultra settings just fine. Just would recommend lowering them for PvP. Another great feature is that you can upgrade this machine yourself.(if you know what your doing or know someone who does)

    This computer came with a lot of software already installed. Most of it I will not use and am gradually removing it as I go. The computer was very easy to set up and it is very fast. I would recommend this computer to anyone.

    I bought this as an upgrade to my desktop, which had fallen behind the times. I wanted some that would play some of the recent releases, but not necessarily at the top settings. So far I love it. Speed is great, it boots up in less than a minute. Runs my games fine (Fallout 4 for example). I have no complaints. I would mention that battery time is about 2 hours, 1 hour if the graphics card is getting a workout. This isn't a problem for me, but would be a consideration for someone who wants to be more mobile..

    Chanced upon this beauty after the third salesman mistakenly typed gl752 instead of g751. So far, it is impressive. Can't wait to pay for it so I can invest in a new ssd drive in the future. I keep washing my hands to keep from dirtying up the touchpad, but to no avail. Just cannot keep it clean. Many big plans for this machine.

    Really fast and supports all my computing needs. I think the battery could be slightly better and it dies faster than I would like when it's not plugged in. Overall great computer and I would buy this brand again when the time comes.

    I've had this laptop since December 2016 and it has served me extremely well all this time, it's still fast, can run games from the ps3/xbox 360 era very well, ps4/xboxOne era is a bit of a stretch but it's a pretty good laptop, I use it for every day purposes like web browsing, gaming, video editing/converting, streaming etc., I take very good care of this laptop and careful with what programs I download, in December 2020 I did finally swap out the battery because it just didn't work anymore it wasn't holding a charge the laptop had to rely on having the charger plugged in or else it would shut down or not turn on, but this issue started occurring around September 2020, I also changed the dried out thermal paste it had with a brand new application to keep it in tip top performance, this laptop has 2 video cards, it uses the weaker one when the charger is not plugged in and swaps to the NVidia card when you plug in the charger, however in the control panel settings you can change the performance to maximum for both cards that's what I did. Would definitely recommend.

    This is the best performing laptop I could find for the money, better than many at higher prices. I found it at a lower price with another seller and Best Buy matched the price without any hassle. The 4 core i7 processor with 16 GB or ram is a big improvement on my 6 year old laptop. The computer started up with no problems and have had no issues after a month.

    If you are serious about high-end media production work or playback this laptop is amazing, It easily outperforms many desktops under $1,200. The 17" screen is excellent for video and audio editing.
