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

Great computer to be honest. Super light, you can even carry it around with one hand and comes in a nice little packing box if you are travelling or just going to a coffee place with it. Super fast, I havent a had problem running newer games like FF XV, Batman AK, and AC Odyssey. It does get a little hot tho but its because you will be running intense graphic games so just make sure to have it in a nice wind flowing area, if you play with AC on then youll be completely fine. As for the noisy... come on now, people really expect something completely silent while making the computer run heavy programs? Its not that loud, its like having those small fans people use in Disneyland and even quiter than that. Battery life yeah its low but oh well deal with it and figure it out. Overall great computer no complaints definitely worth the money, just wait for a discount it would be even a better purchase.

I really enjoyed this laptop. It gaming laptop does lack storage but it makes up with seamless graphics and fast loading. I think this is the perfect mid-range gaming laptop. Easy access to fan controls and give you full control of the overclock that is fast and easy to do. Battery last like any other laptop, not long enough. Perfect buy to do school and gaming.

Love the laptop overall. But dont wonder to far from an electrical outlet, she eats the battery up. Materials are great, doesnt feel flimsy at all and boots super quick, under 15 seconds. Buy a cooler if you are thinking of using it for gaming, a $20 cooler makes a big difference.

I am writing this from Day One of recieving this laptop. Once, unboxed and create a user, I proceed to use the Microsoft Edge web browser. Immediately, I got hit with error_connection_timed_out on msn.com. I then try the gamer paradise, Steam website, same result. Reddit, same thing. Amazon, where I bought this thing, same thing. Even when advised by tech support to go to the brands website, Acer, it timed out the same way. Tried updating the drivers, says that they are the latest. Tried downloading new drivers from acer website using my ethernet cable, same thing afterwards. Tried flushing the dns and reconfig ip, worked for a couple of hours, then same thing. TL:TR Gaming laptop, nearly a grand does not even have properly working wifi drivers. I do not even have a chance to view major websites much less play games. I am going to get a refund, what a waste of time.

Great laptop, use it for maya, zbrush and other 3D intense programs and it handles it all with no struggle, perfect for animation student

Nothing I can say will do this machine justice.

Absolutely agree with everything all the 5 star reviews say. This is an incredible machine, but man its not engineered to completely cool the powerful hardware its packing. The reason Im giving this a 5 star and not 4 star though is because I was able to fix the overheating problem, and man, once its fixed you are looking at an incredible value for incredible performance in a laptop. If youre not willing to under-volt the cpu (I used Hotel Heros under-volt guide) youre not going to be able to play new AAA games without severe overheating issues (93-96C). After undervolting Im running AC:Odyssey at 60fps all high settings at 82C max where before it was maxing at 96C and causing massive fps drops.

Great laptop especially for the price but it does not actually run at 144 Hz. It only projects to a 4K TV at 144 Hz. Pretty bad advertising there.

GREAT laptop for the money, no argument here. Cooling is there, but there is a lot of horsepower that produces A LOT of heat. I would recommend a laptop cooling pad when you game.
