great

My 4 year old Digital Storms fans went dead. I was faced with the choice of fixing the fans or getting a replacement for a system that was long in the tooth. When I saw this laptop with a much better video card than that in the old system I decided to see if it would work as a replacement. All my data were on external hard drives. I plugged them into the USB 3 ports. I used a USB hub to connect keyboard and mouse. My monitor was connected via the HDMI connector. External speakers were attached via the headphone plug. I plugged my internet router to the Ethernet port using an extender. My internet speeds were the same with the extender as they were before I used it.

Battery is a little mediocre when unplugged

Awesome laptop. Battery life is terrible ~1.6 hours but I don’t really use it without the charger.

CPU and GPU keeps running hot. Gotten Blue Screen of Death after 2nd day playing on line. Would not recommend for a real gamer. I am not and just started playing with my husband. Have cooling pad and all. Just mailed it back to Amazon today!

this laptop is amazing and their service is great.

I was looking at a different laptop and this happened to come up. I debated it for days before pulling the trigger. I couldn’t be happier. This is an amazing laptop. Games look and play so great! My best friend is also jealous that it out performs her gaming rig, so that’s a plus for me lol. Pull the trigger and get it. It does get a bit hot, but with that performance I expect it. Just get a stand with a fan in it. Amazing!!

Im very pleased with this laptop! It runs very smooth and the screen looks great. The battery life isnt the best though; typically it lasts a few hours before giving me the battery low notification. The fans when the laptop is cooling down are much quiter than I expected them to be. Overall, its working great!

This is without a doubt, a fantastic gaming computer. It can play every game currently released and in all cases so far, it plays them at the highest graphical setting with zero drops in FPS..Even large active areas of MMOs that normally get a little sluggish, run so smoothly! In fact theres only one thing really wrong with it...unfortunately for me, its a major issue.

after I update BIOS driver and graphic card driver, black screen boot loop happend.
