Greater than one weekFor the price its perfect. For gaming it will literally run everything. I played cyberpunk ultra at 60fps but also 60fps at medium, I think cyberpunk needs to be optimized. No it cant do ray tracing well, the fps will plummet, if youre okay sub 60fps then go for it. Once you go 144hz you cant go back. The battery obiously not meant for gaming on the go, even if it is a laptop. BUT people have complained about the fans and yes it is loud asf. If you wanna use it for school or basic stuff you can go into battery mode, go into control panel -> hardware and sound -> power options -> change plan settings -> advanced power settings -> configure intel thermal whatever tf -> lower it to 35 -> and PCI express max power savings -> processor power management -> decrease cpu speed before increasing fan. That way it will be quiet while you do non-power needing things like word or take notes at school. Otherwise it will be loud and you will feel awkward during lecture while your laptop reves up sounding like a leafblower

> 3 dayAfter a couple of additions (2 gig Nvme and some ram) this little guy almost keeps up with my i9 10900k Alienware Aurora R11 with a 2080ti in it. I’ve been very impressed with the performance of this laptop especially for the price. I like to use it to power my Oculus Quest (use as a Rift) for PC games with Virtual Monitor and it’s done very well. It gets a little hot but I’m not friendly to it with the game settings and run everything wide open. Love having the portability of a laptop to game at work.

> 3 dayIt showed up fast...in 3 days. So far I love it. Its very fast and good build quality. I wish the speakers were louder and the battery is okay but not great. Im real happy overall though. A good value for such a good build. The wifi and bluetooth is strong and has great range. I love how tough it feels. Its sturdy and metal Not slim and fragile plastic like most laptops these days. Make sure you get all your windows updates when you get it or you may have some issues. The keyboard lighting is great and I like the bright blue hawk emblem on the back of the laptop. Startup is super fast...like 10 seconds from pushing power button its ready to go.

> 3 dayI have been looking for a laptop that can handle some gaming needs for a while. The laptop was in my amazon list for a long time and I finally pulled the trigger at the start of the Covid-19 outbreak.

Greater than one weekMy teenage son is a big gamer and was constantly complaining about graphics quality, lag and disconnects with the previous system. This computer works great with none of those problems on these performance hungry games. It is a perfect size, light and portable and the killernetworks feature really helps online gaming performance. The graphics are awesome and it is cool looking too. I also wanted a good computer for him to take to college in another year, with plenty of storage and decent portability for its size. We havent has many issues with Windows 10 as with previous PCs so Im crossing my fingers. It has been a happy purchase so far.

> 3 dayOverall, Im super pleased with this laptop, and I am also really glad I went with the model that has the 16GB DDR4 RAM and the 512GB SSD storage space. The screen has great resolution, basically anything Ive done on it is super fast, and for the price point, youre getting a lot of laptop.

> 3 dayBought this in April 2020. Cant play with it until it gets repaired because the s key came off. Contacted insurance to send it to see if it can be repaired. The manufacturer said they dont cover physical damage.
