> 3 dayVery pleased with this laptop in terms of speed, noise level, and features. There is a slight amount of light bleed around the edges of the screen, but I dont use it in a dark room so it really isnt a problem for me. One of the reasons I chose this model was for ease of access for a SSD addition as a secondary drive; very straightforward. (I didnt have to remove the motherboard like some competitors do.)

> 3 dayWorks really well for playing games and what not. The only problem i have is that the track pad is useless. Extremely useless, so dont plan on using it AT ALL!!!!!!

> 3 dayOver the time I have had this laptop, I have yet to encounter any issue. The screen shows games and such beautifully, the speakers work wonderfully, and it can collect clear audio when need be. All in all, it is a great laptop.

> 3 dayThis laptop is a fantastic budget gaming laptop. The SSD boots right up very quick load times, the GTX card is very capable for almost all gaming needs. I have been playing COD Warzone and it runs extremely smooth, the fans do get loud and after a while they REALLY start pushing hot air out the side to where you can feel it on your mouse hand if youre close enough, I think this is a good indicator of how well its cooling. The one issue that lots of reviewers mentioned and its very true, is that the battery life is abysmal, I can play COD for about an hour unplugged, even just sitting there on the homescreen it will only last maybe 3 hours. i get it with all these powerful features it does use a lot of power, but if you think youll have enough battery for a 4 hour flight this isnt it. BUT with how incredibly well it runs my games, i can forgive it i still give it 5 stars even with the terrible battery life because this is clearly a gaming laptop and it doesnt pretend to be anything else. The custom LED lighting for the keyboard is pretty slick, you can give it different light profiles for different games. The monitor is really impressive for a laptop, even high movement gaming looks fantastic with no perceptible lag. The wireless card is very fast i get about 85-90% wired speeds even with a few walls between the router. Overall im very impressed and I absolutely recommend this laptop for anyone looking for a great gaming rig. Also, its upgradable, it comes with a hard drive expansion kit, and everything can be taken out and upgraded for future proofing.

Greater than one weekI don’t know what the hell happened, I disconnected my computer from the tv and now my laptop won’t turn on. I wouldn’t recommend plugging it into your tv. However it works well.

> 3 dayla recomiendo totalmente. después de seis meses de uso, me he dado cuenta que funciona 100/100. estoy encantada con ella, es la mejor inversión que he hecho. me gusta que el teclado se puede personalizar (el color). todo corre sensacionalmente. no tengo ninguna falla con ella. tiene poca memoria de almacenamiento pero para hacer el upgrade es muy fácil, otro punto a su favor y pues que les puedo decir. corre el cyberpunk bien fluido jajajaj y sin bugs. así, nomás hay un detalle que no se si será solo en mi compu o algo. pero cuando estoy jugando sin cable lan o algo se desconecta el internet. no se si será por una configuración o algo pra ahorrar batería pero es molesto estar en medio de una partida o algo y pum bye internet, y no porque sea relacionado a algo del módem (si es la compu)

> 3 dayThe fan is not working now, and of course warranty and support expired in June. No computer Ive owned has had a problem like that so soon. Overall Ive been disappointed with this computer. It uses more power than most laptops. I travel and live off-grid most of the time. I attempted to get a 12v charge cord so i wouldnt need to run it through my inverter but wasnt able to find one. So that was my first disappointment.
