    The laptop is fast and can be upgraded rely easily has a un used ram slot and 2.5inch harddrive bay the keyboard could be better it feels a little mushy but for the price $450 i really cannot complain the fans do a good job of keeping it cool but they are loud. The build quality is pretty good its pretty sturdy. All together this is a grate laptop for gaming and the price can't be beaten.

    My son had a much nicer Mac laptop, but he informed me that all he really cared about was basic use for school, and otherwise, having the memory and speed needed to play games with his friends. This has been a *huge* hit with a bunch of the teens in their school as being a great gaming laptop, and still good enough for whatever other general needs they have. Plus, it's great looking!

    I wanted a well priced well equipped PC for gaming and this was both. I have had this for computer for six months and it’s been great handles new games just as well as old ones. The internal sound from Bang and Olufsen is great. Also easy to upgrade storage and Ram it will handle 32gb which is great. Only thing I wish was an easy fit is forcing the keyboard lighting to stay on all the time.

    Bought it to solely play World of Warcraft and it does great. Runs smooth and graphics look fantastic. Love the green lit keyboard for playing in the dark aswell. Only issue I have is that it has experienced an error and had to restart roughly 8 times since having it and it’s only been about a month. Other than that it’s worth the money

    My old HP loptop died and I was looking for a new one. I wanted one with a backlit keyboard. I looked at Best Buy on line and found this one. Unfortunately it was out of stock and I had to order it. Well it was a week before Christmas and they said 2 day delivery. They held true to their word and I simply love this new laptop. It's faster than my old one and I couldn't be happier.

    Very good laptop for the price I paid. (Less than $500) can play any games in mix between medium and high at 60fps. GTA V and Call of Duty included. The only downside is the display, it is not very bright which makes it difficult to use in places with lots of light, especially playing dark games. Overall very happy with purchase.

    I had an old potato of a laptop before this. I finally decided to save up for a more expensive laptop that I could play a few games on. It runs much better than my old laptop and runs streams much smoother. I havent gotten to try some more graphically challenging games yet but so far so good. Its done everything ive needed it to.

    I bought this to do schoolwork on but I also like to game. I'm not a beginner or an avid gamer but there are some games I like to play like Overwatch, Minecraft, etc... and it works good. I love the lightup keyboard too. So far, everything I need to do I can do with this computer.

    I love it. It's easy to use and find what I need to do. I like that it syncs to my phone. Boot up is very fast. The battery life is decent depending on what you're trying to do. If you're just browsing the net it last a long time (most of the day). If you're playing games it'll only last a few hours of course.

    I got this on black Friday deal for $450, in been using it for 4 months already and so far so good, been doing a lot of things on it, of course it won't handle heavy gaming, for nfs games and re5 plus p.s and Lightroom it handles it really good

    So I bought this a few days ago I got a printer with it and a payment plan. So far it’s good but why am I only rating it good. Well I downloaded some graphics card drivers. After 2 days. And it stole performance out of my graphics card. Why? And it started stuttering on Minecraft. So I rolled the drivers back and reinstalled. It stopped stuttering. Why I just want to know why graphics card drivers steal performance.

    Excellent laptop that balance the both power and performance requirements. Also, this is perfect gift to give someone who needs a laptop for school and some entertainment. The NVIDIA graphics is adding value to any graphical applications including games. This is really worth for the money that I paid.

    Haven't had any issues with it yet. Good speed. Great if you're using for casual gaming that match up with the specs. Lightweight and not bulky. Green backlight on the keyboard is cool. Overall a good product. Great value since I got this on sale.

    This laptop is great for the price. This is a medium quality laptop which is more than enough for 97% of people and gamers. If you enjoy FPS or fighter games online competitively then this isn't for you, otherwise this laptop is plenty and should be considered to purchase. Some newer components recently came out that make this laptop look like a child, but games haven't really caught up to need that power just yet and those newer parts are pretty expensive.

    This HP gaming computer is well balanced in key performance components— cpu, memory, SSD hard drive, and great graphics. This optimizes this computer for everyday and office programs as well as plugging in external monitors to provide a very capable home system. One just needs to buy a high speed USB 256gb micro flash drive to use as the main storage for personal files keeping the built in SSD free to have space and speed to run programs. One can also subscribe to office 365 to use One Drive or subscribe to Dropbox both will provide 1 TB or more web storage. The computers design is cute but I bought it for professional and home office use and would have preferred the same components in a thin metal case like the more expensive Apple, Microsoft, and even high end HP desktops. But if you want the most bang for the buck, this is it.
