    Excellent system for my grandson to learn game programming. It's powerful enough to play most games and capable enough for programming too.

    So far , so good. Quickly starts up, able to multi-task without impacting processor speed. I'm not a gamer, but For the cost, this PC provided ample memory and processor speed.

    Solid Budget Laptop

    Pretty solid for the price it is at, it can do almost anything you make it do and it can watch all the videos I need it to watch, it also performs pretty well in SolidWorks and blender, so if you're someone who wants to do free-lance artwork or 3D modelling and CAD on a budget, this laptop might just be your best bet. The only thing that limits this is the storage capacity and ram, which can both be fixed if you can get 3rd party ram and an external hard drive.

    This laptop has exceeded my expectations. Each game I've tried plays well with no slow down. Apps open quickly and are responsive. Only two flaws 1. Hard drive space is really low and with modern games fills fast. But it has a slot open for an additional drive and theres always external harddrivew . 2. It shows finger prints reaaally badly. But these are small complaints , especially considering the price. I am upgrading my memory and putting in another hard drive. Even though memory has done just fine for me as is i want to make sure to stay at peak performance.

    I installed five games on it and it worked fine. I had approximately 80GB left. Then came an update on one of the games. Totally maxed out the storage space and was unable to complete the update. I had to uninstall the game and download the updated version. Other than that, no other issues. I have not installed any other programs other than the five games. Unfortunately, at the time I purchased this laptop, the 512GB version was sold out. If you plan on playing more games and using video editing software, purchase one with more storage space.

    Bought this laptop for work and some light gaming. I'm able to play most older games (Borderlands GOTY, Fallout New Vegas with heavy mods, Serious Sam 3, older ARPGs) on high settings with max fps (60 hz monitor). Keyboard is sound and backlit. Got this on an open box special and it was priced well below the market average. One downside is only standard usb port per side with an additional USB-c on the right. RAM is a bit anemic but easily upgradable from 8 to 16 or 32 DDR4. SSD is only 256gb but it has an additional port for another drive.

    Not a big fan of the green back lit keys but other wise a nice fast laptop but wanted something larger so went with the HP Envy 17.3 instead.

    This laptop replaced a MacBook Pro rig and is much better in so many ways. The solid state drive is lightening quick and it chews through whatever you throw at it

    I’ve got all the Sims 4 expansion packs, runs it with ease. Super easy to use, only problem I’ve run into is right clicking in my game but found a way around that.

    Great Laptop for beginners. IT has a AMD Ryzen 5 and is pretty fast although Ryzen 7 is much better. For the price and value, it works pretty well.

    This machine was purchased to run a mobile DJ program, as well as do some minor graphic design work. It holds up, performs well, and handles what I need to throw at it.

    hard to get started

    Once I finally got the computer working, it's been great. It kept asking me for a password but never knew what it was. I had help getting it started and connecting it to wi-fi but then it quit working again. I played with it for awhile and got my password and it's been fine now, but I really like it, games and being able to get on the internet have been great. Carolyn, (don't remember her last name) was very helpful buying the computer over the phone since the store was not open and curbside was very convenient. Thanks!
