Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop | 12th Gen Intel i7-12700H | GeForce RTX 3060 GPU | 17.3 Full HD 144Hz 3ms IPS Display | 16GB DDR5 | 512GB Gen 4 SSD | Killer Wi-Fi 6E | PH317-56-70XJ

After sending back my other computer (an Acer) I paid the extra 100$ and got this guy for gaming. After 30 minutes of updates....It blew my mind how awesome this machine is. The keyboard lighting is fully customizable. It has overclock setting built in so you do not have to crash your computer a bunch of times to get it right. I play all my games on Ultra and it is 100fps+. I am so glad I went with the Predator and will be staying with this from now on. Also, I will be installing a 1tb SSD in the empty slot to add more space. Cant say enough good things about how light, stylish and out of the box ready for gaming it is!

It lasted a little over 2 years and began to malfunction. I looked online and this seems to be pretty common, a hardware failure. Random crashes and a black screen with no bootable device on it. Of course its 3 months past warranty...

El cargador no servia y algunas teclas como subir/bajar volumen y el brillo de la pantalla no respondían a esta funcion, una lastima ya que me agrado bastante el diseño y la calidad de construcción pero nada de eso sirve si la computadora como tal no funciona.

Performs well, and not terribly loud. Marginal gains from overclocking at the expense of a dramatic increase in noise. Display is not quite as bright as I would like for a room with lots of natural light but the refresh rate is a plus. RAM and M.2 expansion is painless, however 2.5 SSD expansion is effectively impossible without finding the proper cable. After calling Acer, they pointed me to a third party that produces the proper cable. Too difficult to navigate their web page so I gave up. I have been through two cables from amazon, and they did not work.

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 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.

I was impressed before I even turn it on for the first time. Boots up fast. The WiFi is super awesome. I was downloading games from steam at amazing speeds. Screen is crystal clear. The graphics card works great. Max settings for GTA V and there was breathing room on the video memory. I will be happy with this for a good long time.

Love! My games look great on here and I love how silent the keyboard is. I only just got it in today so I will be doing an update after a few weeks! So far definitely would recommend!!

Big waste of money.

Great Gaming Laptop, Awesome Graphics and Speed
