    Amazing Speed

    Computer is very fast and reliable. Can sometimes get very hot when running cad software but isn't a big deal. Overall I have had it for a month or two with no problems and it exceeded my expectations.

    Fantastically smooth machine

    I rarely write reviews but as this is my first gaming laptop in 7 years, I felt it was necessary to draw attention to all the amazing attributes this machine has. First and foremost, the graphics card is phenomenal, it's fast, it's bright, it adjusts well to heavily detailed games and brings out the finer details missed with other less powerful graphic cards. It also has a number pad, which is KEY for me and super hard to find on machines these days. The layout of the keyboard, touch pad, and the overall feel of the machine is sleek, easy, and responsive. Lastly, the screen size and POWER it packs for the weight, literally cannot be beat. Like holy bananas! I can't believe how lightweight it is for the screen size and how much POWER it has it honestly unbelievable. The only "downside" if there is one, is that the AC brick does get warm even if you're not gaming so it may be a good idea to ensure that you do not put this on a couch or a bed and fall asleep with it on but that's fairly common with gaming laptops but felt it was worth pointing out.

    It is everything you would expect, I love it very much. The only bad thing was the price but if you save up enough you will be in for a treat. Love gaming? this is for you, love designing? this is for you.

    Ok, This Thing Is Fun

    I've been looking for a top performance pc/laptop for the last year or so. This thing combines performance, a sleek design, and all of the top specs you'd hope for in a 2019 gaming pc. My desktop may rival some of its specs, but just how this thing handles day to day is impeccable. And the 1TB SSD is perfect for what I'm doing in gaming, and audio/visual design. If you can snag one, do it.

    I'm using this along an Oculus Rift S and they go together beautifully. Don't forget to pickup a DisplayPort -> USB-C/Thunderbolt3 adapter though.

    This thing is worse than a 1660ti hp laptop I had

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It is pre programmed with nothing you can do to use Intel graphics. I have tried all settings, both in the bios, updating bios, downgrading bios, nvidia panel to use dedicated, turned all power saving off in everything, disabled Intel, and in heroes if the storm I get dips of 40 fps on lowest settings. It uses the Intel card over the nvidia card, with monitors it uses the nvidia card at 20 percent and the Intel over 40. Formatted 3 times, tried everything I can think of and all the forums. The 1660ti hp laptop got min fps was 160 max 300 plus. There is no way to control which graphics card it is going to use, it tries to use both by the looks, which would be useful if it was unplugged, but plugged in the intel should be disabled. Insane that a 2080 2400 dollar laptop can't even run heroes of the Strom at a min fps of 144 fps and a 1660ti can. It also has 2 black pixels. Thought buying a 2499 laptop would be better than a 1000 dollar one, definitely not the case here.
