    Great Entry Level Gaming Laptop

    This laptop is an exceptional entry level gaming laptop with great specs (current gen Ryzen and a 3000 series Nvidia GPU) and excellent cooling. The design takes from it’s Alienware big brothers and the two tone back and gray (with a paint splatter effect) is simply yet amazing. It does come with some Dell, Alienware, and McAfee bloatware, but that is par for the course on any prebuilt computer.

    Great for everything i’ve use it for so far. I had to upgrade the ram very early on and i’m about to update the ssd because it can only hold so much as a factory laptop. Battery dies fast though i do use it a lot. Had it for 2 years still runs 120 fps most games very fast i havent seen any slowing down or had any maintenance problems

    Love it to death. I use this lap top for work and school and gaming. Does everything you need and some. I travel with it everywhere all over the US. Sleek design and I like it doesn’t look “GAMER” computer. It’s elegant and the performance is amazing. I can play any game, mostly Destiny 2 on max settings with 80-120 fps. That’s really good even though Destiny is a 5 year old game. Over all, an amazing laptop! Has a beefy graphics card and decent Ryzen chip, has over clocking and Alienware software which I really like.

    This Laptop is overall an amazing machine Ive been playing games such as Apex, Warzone, Elden Ring, andBlack Ops 3 at high srtjngs and it runs superb. The inly reason I did not give this a 5/5 stars is because of thepower outlet in the back of the conputer is very loose so the cord falls out pretty easilg but overall this laptop multitasks pretty well and is a nice starter choice to get into pc gaming.

    Great beginners gaming laptop. I bought this for my middle school son and he uses it for all his gaming, and along with his Xbox account. For the most part there are no issues. Does slow down a bit when he’s got a bunch of things open, but that’s expected. Great product for the price and intended use, but probably not for a really serious gamer.

    This has been working for really well for the 6 months now of owning this laptop. It’s very well rounded computer the only con is the battery life is very short so you would need to charge the laptop after two hours of no charge but overall it has been an essential device for work and gaming on AAA GAMES!

    Had it a year and performance has been great. Out of the box, it's solid, but not top of the line. For the price though, it's an excellent bargain. Did upgrade it to enhance performance, but it's not completely necessary. You will certainly get your money's worth.

    this laptop does everything i need for gaming and work. The keyboard is backlit and will help in dim lit rooms. The ryzen cpu is powerful and more than modern games need to run at a very respectable framerate.

    Excellent laptop when on sale. I got mine open box for $618 without tax. Definitely upgrade to dual ram with 16+gb. Two exhaust and two intakes helps with heat greatly. It comes with a 2230 ssd, room for another full size nvme drive, just need the mount (ridiculous since it’ll cost Dell a literal penny to include it). It was either this or the 75w 3060 MSI laptop but this one benchmark’s similarly with gpu, but the cpu runs laps around the i5.

    A solid performing gaming laptop. One reason I bought it was to run flight simulator programs. So far I have only tried X-plane 11 and it runs like a champ. It also runs a powerful video editor, DaVinci Resolve 17 with little lag. I would have liked a larger internal SSD drive, but that can be upgraded at a later date. No complaints so far. A solid, well-built laptop, with strong hinges. The fans are a little noisy when they kick in, but nothing terrible. I saved some money buying a refurbished unit. You would never know it wasn’t brand new.

    My daughter needed a good beginner gaming laptop. This fit the bill. She is able to play streaming games that she could not play on her older hp. I cannot afford one of those top of the line, and so far, this has not let her down. I am planning to upgrade the RAM, which is one reason I bought it. She also loves that she can connect a 2nd monitor, another reason for this choice.
