    My biggest issue and the reason why i docked a star is because the c drive was 250mb while the d drive was a tb instead of the other way around.. Leaves very little space with all the system files to download a good game and play at its best.

    Pretty much as best a gaming laptop you can get for the price as of now! Fans run often but they are pretty quiet. Keyboard is decent. It's solid in weight. 128 ssd is kinda useless so I'll probly switch that out. Overall good buy. Runs WOW and Total war Warhammer 2 on max settings without lag!

    This is a great overall laptop. I enjoy online game play and though this is not the monster my desktop is, still this laptop provides and very enjoyable gaming experience. Lightning fast and smooth. The display could be a little crisper but hardly a complaint. Really enjoying this machine.

    This has been a great purchase. The computer is fast and display looks fabulous . Gaming is great. The only down side is the fan. It is very noticeable. I'm sure the processor and graphics card need that much air cooling them, so it is worth it, but you should know about the sound before you buy.

    The size of this laptop will be larger than some will desire, due to the larger screen size, but the weight is still acceptable for carrying. The stats are good for today's computing. The variable-speed cooling fan is sometimes quite noisy and therefore distracting.

    I use this for school assignments and it's fast. The only thing I hate is that my files are stored on the onedrive and don't know how to fix that. I did not select that as default. Other than that everything is great

    Fast and reliable. It's my gaming as well as schoolwork laptop. Pros: Fast boot, light-up keyboard, fingerprint login is fast, good color, quiet cooling fan, plenty of ports. Cons: Heavy, charger is rediculously heavy as well, sound lacks much bass.

    My daughter was in need of a reliable laptop that was VR ready. So far, this laptop has met those requirements and so much more. With so much available memory, she’s been able to download several of her favorite games without sacrificing its ability to run her VR games.

    its a good laptop but i did have to adjust various settings to get it to perform how i wanted/expected it to. some issues are shared with laptops in general. only reason i returned it was to get another laptop with a better gpu and screen refresh rate (120hz).

    We got this laptop for my son's architectural college classes. At the time it was near top of the line with memory and functionality. It can handle the demands of running most of the necessary programs for his college designs.

    Beast with a heavy weight

    It's a beast. Good battery. coming from a desktop env I found this laptop too heavy. But I guess it's worth it for the power it packs. Would recommend other lighter alternatives if you do not want a powerful gamin laptop or do not use it for GPU n RAM intensive tasks.

    My son works as a graphics artist/promotions person for an NCAA basketball team. He is constantly developing new promotions. This laptop replaced another one that he had for a few years that could not keep up anymore. He loves it.

    This laptop is great! My only negatives are that I don’t like how the power cord and headphones plug into the laptop in the middle. It makes it difficult to use a regular mouse. If not for that, I would give it 5 stars. I still highly recommend it!

    What a buy it has everything a gamer needs. It's fast, enough memory and a great video card..My gaming grandson loves it and it barely has a chance to rest. I did buy him a good fan cooler for it and made sure its always on, just in case. Now I wish I had one.

    I've always been a console gamer so decided to pick up a laptop to take games with me. I haven't played anything too crazy on the graphics but it plays Ark very smooth and loads super fast. It also has good battery life and runs cool. All around great PC.

    From order to delivery and beyond, this has been an awesome buy. Thank you Best Buy. The machine is great, the specs are well above average for the price. CS-Go and PUBG play effortlessly. GTX1060 with MaxQ does the job for most applications.

    I’m a huge fan of Apple, but needed a windows operating computer capable of running heavy programs for Autodesk and this computer is awesome!! It’s such a powerful laptop! More than satisfied with my purchase...might even stop being an Apple fan

    This is my most favorite computer I have ever had! I bring it to school with me and it fits great in my backpack. I especially love the matte screen on the computer. I had not seen that before and now I can’t go back. Love love love!!

    Great laptop for me so far. Like that it has a Ethernet jack, and is really snappy as far as response time in games. good backlit keyboard, but can't figure out how to keep it on all the time...
