Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop PC, 15.6 FHD IPS w/ 144Hz Refresh, Intel i7-8750H, GTX 1060 6GB, 16GB DDR4, 256GB NVMe SSD, Aeroblade Metal Fans PH315-51-78NP

This laptop literally has BURNED and given 2nd degree burns on my fingers multiple times I cant use the keyboard because of how hot the metal chassis gets please do not get this laptop under any circumstances I would have brought this back ages ago if I knew I could have. massive waste of money.

Works well. Using it for game design and 3D Modeling.

Bought this for as a replacement for graphics intense CAD/CAM model rendering software. It handles the popular CAD software well! Renders patterned geometry from modeling quick. The touchpad guestures are a bit hard to master but I use an advanced mouse anyway. Fans cool this thing well and can be controlled on the fly (fully adjustable during use). Screen brightness can be a bit dark in sunlight or field conditions but resolution quality is great. THE BEST FEATURE IS SPEED! After initial setup, press power button and login screen pops up in under 3 secs...then, after login, ready to run with no lag after another 2 secs!!! Faster than my other built performance desktop machine of 5 years ago. Great machine for the price and even better price during annual discount sale times here!

Great gaming computer, good value for the components and plays everything I’ve thrown at it.

Works good

Got mine and started playing my very first game on it. Temp went up to 200 and the fans were blowing loud. I turned the fans up to max (Making a pretty good amount of white noise in my living room) and the temp sunk to 160~165 for a little while. I went back to playing hitman 2 and eventually the fans just couldnt keep up. the keys on the keyboard kept getting more and more uncomfortable. contacted their technical support and got well you can send to us and we will look to see if anything is wrong with it That inspired no confidence in me that they would fix anything or make any difference. Contacted Amazon support and they suggested use the integrated GPU instead of the dedicated GPU as a fix. I immediately decided that i was not going to get my moneys worth from this computer and started the complete refund task. Waste of time in my opinion.

freaking love this thing, the design is great and it crushes gamessss. love getting 145 fps in overwatch, and being able to take it wherever you go is great. I dont like how its a really bad fingerprint magnet, wish there was like a matte finish on it. but, guess you cant have it all. all in all would be a solid recommendation from me!

backstory

Ive been using this computer for about a month so far and Ive been pleased. The touchpad works fine and with the SSD the boot up time is great. I put a secondary hard drive in and the installation was easy. Ive read complaints about the fan noise but Ive noticed it occasionally when gaming but it hasnt been bad at all. I usually wear headphones anyway. My only complaint is the finish does show smudges easily and the lid can show little scratches also easily. The performance has been great so far. Ive done a little gaming and have not noticed any lag. Ive been happy with the purchase.

For the price plays Skyrim and PUBG very well and good graphics very well for the money
