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

I Had a little issue with the killer wifi being installed, so I had to delete all the wifi drivers and reset then connect to and LAN redownload and it has worked great. Also, in order to get the RGB keyboard instead of just the blue when it first turns on need to go into the predator software and go to lighting and Walla.

It’s op

Bought 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.

Fast to start up, has worked well with occulus link/virtual reality games (half life alyx and Asgards wrath) at medium settings as advertised. If you turn up VR settings to high you will definitely get high CPU and GPU temperatures, but i would say this is expected for a laptop.

Thanks

Battery is a little mediocre when unplugged

My son loves it thanx!!

I’ve been looking for an affordable gaming laptop and this is what the most people suggested, so far i like the performance of the laptop, but i already expected the battery, i know it’s more faster compared to other laptops, but since it uses alot of battery because of the good specs and power and all. but overall i am satisfied

This has been the perfect solution for my 15 year old as a gaming laptop. The screen is crisp and it is a great entry level gaming machine. It plays everything on Steam, which is where he plays most of his games. Ive had it for over a year now and wanted to wait on the review. It is still running strong. Im very happy with it.

I had my old gaming laptop stolen and it was so expensive that I just didnt get a new one for a long while. I saw this one on special one weekend, so I just bit the bullet and grabbed it came very quickly and it is wayyy faster than my other laptop that was almost 5X the cost. after I loaded all of my games and work programs (I use a ton of programs for many companies) it still boots up in 3 seconds and the wireless internet is way faster. and the turbo mode button is nutsss. Anyway. Great buy.
