Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop PC, 15.6 FHD IPS w/ 144Hz Refresh, Intel i7-8750H, GTX 1060 6GB, 16GB DDR4, 256GB NVMe SSD, Aeroblade Metal Fans PH315-51-78NP

Got mine and started playing my very first game on it. Temp went up to 200 and the fans were blowing loud. I turned the fans up to max (Making a pretty good amount of white noise in my living room) and the temp sunk to 160~165 for a little while. I went back to playing hitman 2 and eventually the fans just couldnt keep up. the keys on the keyboard kept getting more and more uncomfortable. contacted their technical support and got well you can send to us and we will look to see if anything is wrong with it That inspired no confidence in me that they would fix anything or make any difference. Contacted Amazon support and they suggested use the integrated GPU instead of the dedicated GPU as a fix. I immediately decided that i was not going to get my moneys worth from this computer and started the complete refund task. Waste of time in my opinion.

Great laptop

Was relatively cheap and thats what I got. The computer after a year is barely holding together. This is a 12-18 month computer.

Genial

The screen broke the first week I got it, when I put about 3 pounds of pressure on top of the closed laptop and shattered then bled until the whole screen was unuseable. I sent it in for repairs under the manufacturers warranty, and after going through all that, they literally sent it back to me without a word and said they wont repair it. Ive since connected it to a computer monitor but still had numerous issues with it, and clearly it was a defectively manufactured laptop that had loose components including the screen placement.

Bought this for as a replacement for graphics intense CAD/CAM model rendering software. It handles the popular CAD software well! Renders patterned geometry from modeling quick. The touchpad guestures are a bit hard to master but I use an advanced mouse anyway. Fans cool this thing well and can be controlled on the fly (fully adjustable during use). Screen brightness can be a bit dark in sunlight or field conditions but resolution quality is great. THE BEST FEATURE IS SPEED! After initial setup, press power button and login screen pops up in under 3 secs...then, after login, ready to run with no lag after another 2 secs!!! Faster than my other built performance desktop machine of 5 years ago. Great machine for the price and even better price during annual discount sale times here!

After reviewing many types, and coming from a alienware m17xr3, I wasnt sure, but its amazing, cool to the touch and very powerful especially for the price

Perfect laptop.... poor battery performance nevertheless I do not regret this purchase in the least.

The Acer Helios Laptop is great for the price with the 144hz monitor but the constant FPS drops during gaming is making me think of returning it and getting a different gaming laptop. The only way that I found online to reduce the FPS drop is by lowering the processor minimum and maximum state to 75%, which drops the FPS by 30.

The hardware was faulty to a point of making anygame unplayable, on top of massive overheating issues. Anygame on low hitches constantly which makes any form of gaming impossible to enjoy.
