The fan is not working now, and of course warranty and support expired in June. No computer Ive owned has had a problem like that so soon. Overall Ive been disappointed with this computer. It uses more power than most laptops. I travel and live off-grid most of the time. I attempted to get a 12v charge cord so i wouldnt need to run it through my inverter but wasnt able to find one. So that was my first disappointment.

I’m not an avid gamer but I needed something with a little more ‘umph’, I work with multiple photoshop programs as well as 3D sculpting programs and with this computer I can run multiple programs with ease and the WiFi works better than my iPhone when I go outside in the back of the house. I’ve had this for a while now and I haven’t had any issues at all - for now. Very happy with my purchase

I just received my package and wanted to immediately upgrade the hard drive. Much to my utter shock, the most important piece of the laptop was missing, the hard drive. It was just empty there, nada. I have called the customer support for help and they have transferred my claim to another department, so I will have to wait 2-3 business days for that call. It sounds pretty crazy but this is where I am right now. I paid this much money to have such an important piece of hardware missing.

This beats the heck out of my old laptop that I have for 6 years however the screen is a bit smaller but I will use my hdmi cord to hook it up to my 4k tv so I am all good now

The computer works amazing for everything I use it for - running my works virtual desktop, streaming on discord, playing in roll20, running casual games like stardew valley and the sims 4. However, the fans are ridiculously loud, even when the computer is idling. I read in reviews that this unit has loud fans, and I thought, how loud could they really be? They are ASTOUNDINGLY loud, it will make you reevaluate your previously held notions of loudness. Any time its on, even if youre just looking at it from across the room and not asking anything of it, It sounds like an ancient desktop tower that has been baking in the sun for hours and is on its last breath from a lifetime of mining bitcoins.

VERY GOOD PRODUCT AND ARRIVED AT TIME

It is really great for gaming and the screen display is just unreal! My cpu never gets over 85c and with the turbo mode on it stays around 65c. It runs games like squad, escape from tarkov, insurgency sandstorm very well

Excellent.. better than expected.. very powerful machine.. happy and satisfied!!

We were never able to boot up the laptop. Customer support was frustrating. We returned the laptop.

500GB hd inadequate. Needed turbo mode to do VR, its just enough, but not enough to play games. Over priced at the time I bought it for what its made of. Ot enough memory, storage or processing. Its an easy pass, but heck its been almost 2 years,, it wasnt enough then, so why make the review? Moores law..should have been good enough..bottom line its just Amazons skewed ratings
