Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop PC, 15.6 Full HD 144Hz 3ms IPS Display, Intel i7-9750H, GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 6GB, 16GB DDR4, 256GB NVMe SSD, Backlit Keyboard, PH315-52-78VL

Perfect notebook for render

I like the gaming performance on this laptop, its a beast for the money. I added in my own SATA 2 TB SSD for extra storage because the 256gb ssd it comes with just isnt enough for me so I appreciated that they had the option to add a 2.5 inch drive. The battery life I get on this at medium brightness doing simple web browsing and watching videos is around 4-6 hours which is not that great but not bad for a gaming laptop. I know other gaming laptops which cost much more, have bigger batteries and get about half the battery life as this one. But aside from all that, I give the laptop a 5 star for its price to performance ratio.

I bought this on a cybermonday sale. The packaging was great but the Machine had faulty hardware out of the box. Everytime tried to play a game weird noises happened and the computer crashed. Acer service was pretty terrible as well. Spent hours on updates that did not work, and then asked to do a factory reset. The Machine was BROKEN OUT OF THE BOX!

Very nice laptop for it’s price.

The Acer Predator Helios 300 PH315-52 laptop with the Intel i7-9750h & nVidia 1660 Ti is a great Laptop for gaming, i am using for game testing. Excellent Product.

I bought this for my wife but were getting divorced so I kept it before I had a chance to tell her. I hate using laptops in general but I guess it will be nice to have if I decide to be a bum again. Now I use it to stream movies while I play games on my main pc. Im not a huge fan of the splash screen every time I turn it on. It just gets old after a while. Makes me feel like I bought a thousand dollar tv though which is what it ended up being. I might sell it but who knows. Might be useful if I go back on the road. The battery life, however, is not much to write home about. Runs down after half a days use and thats just general online browsing and maybe 30 minutes of gameplay. Expect to keep it plugged in most the time. I added a hybrid drive to increase the disc space. Not sure why now that I wont actually be using it to store much but whatever.

First gaming laptop for me. And I can’t say I am disappointed. It’s a nice machine, fast and pretty fast. Installed a couple more hard drives in there so now I got over 2 tb of space.

I did a ton of research before landing on this laptop. I looked at Alienware, Razer and other brands but this one stood out the most. The amount performance for your hard earned money can’t be beat. Pair that with great build quality and cooling, this laptop hits all marks.

This computers graphics card, processor, and SSD harddrive dramatically improved performance for my die-hard gamer. He is extremely happy with this machine. The clarity and detail of images is top-notch. There is no lag time with changing screens. This is an exceptional computer for gaming and visual-oriented work.
