> 3 dayI was incredibly excited to buy this laptop, but noticed a massive issue after only a couple days of use... It overheats like crazy. Seriously, 75C+ just running singleplayer Minecraft! Even after purchasing a cooling pad and undervolting the system, the temperatures are as awful as ever. Some of the other games I purchased (like U-Boat) literally cannot be played for more than a few minutes before the primary CPU hits 90C. I’ve sent it in to Acer’s service corp today for them to take a look, and can only hope that this issue will be addressed.

Greater than one weekThe best gamer notebook my son has ever had. He ia playing Paladin at 174 fps and only 5ms ping!!, The only issue is the loud fans, but playing fast like a jet (in his words) is the really important thing.

Greater than one weekquite a slim model for a gaming laptop. performance is nice, fan might be a little loud due to intense heat caused by small size. overall a nice budge gaming system.

> 3 dayADVICE: IF YOU BUY THIS LAPTOP, IMMEDIATELY UPDATE THE INTEL SSD FIRMWARE AND DRIVERS. The Intel SSD Toolbox software thats freely available on Intels website should identify and fix the issues I had before they cause you the same headache.

> 3 dayThis is my first gaming computer of any kind. I didnt know what to expect. I was just hoping for better graphics than my old Lenovo Ideapad would allow. I was also hoping that my game would load quicker. I was shocked at the graphics on this laptop. And it takes probably less than 3 minutes to go from desktop to playing my game. I have no idea what half of the features even mean because I lack in the area of technological knowledge, but I do understand that it comes with an HD screen - which it awesome. I use my Predator for Sims 4, browsing the internet, and streaming videos and movies. I cant speak to the quality of gaming for other games (because I dont play other games), but this laptop is AMAZING for Sims 4. I enjoy playing with custom content and Ive had zero issues with the amount of content that I continue to pile into this things memory. On my old Lenovo, I would literally have to wait a solid 5mins for the screen to pop up after clicking the icon on my desktop. Then an additional 10 actual minutes for it to open up to the games Home Screen. Then another 5-10 mins for it to load my family. The lag on my old Lenovo was absolutely terrible. In comparison to the piece of junk I was playing on before, the Predator Helios 300 is amazing. The tasks flow seamlessly. All I could think about was a sharp knife sliding through butter as I discovered the wonder I had been missing. My game loads in what feels like the blink of an eye. Theres no lag at all. Downloading custom content is super fast (especially considering I download massive amounts of content at one time and throw it in a zip file). The quality of my gaming experience has improved so dramatically with this laptop that I honestly dont think I could ever go back to anything else - let alone a none-gaming laptop. 100% buy this if youre on a budget and are addicted to Sims. Im doing the payment plan through amazon prime. It was worth every single penny the second I got past Cortanas annoying setup routine (which was super fast and easy BTW).

> 3 dayThis laptop did not live up to the specs it had inside. Overheated allot even with a cooling pad under. Constant bottle neck and lag in games even in fortnite.
