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 will be the 2nd predator I have purchased. Both kids16 and 22 now have them. They are wonderfully fast the graphics are amazing! They also are windows reality ready so if you have VR you can connect it. I know 3 young adults with the same laptop and NONE would trade it for anything. Great quality! Definitely recommend for your young gamer.

Battery dead in one hour

Computers are supposed to idle at at 40 C and less. This one idles at 70 C. Good specs but because of terrible heat management you can easily fry that hardware to uselessness without even trying.

Like most folks getting a gaming laptop youve spent countless hours comparing specs, reading reviews just like I did before buying my Predator. What I liked best about the Predator-i7 processor,the 144HZ monitor, and Geforce 1060 video card, these items were not available on any other competitors laptops. These are also items that are not easy or impossible to upgrade at a later point. The lower points were the smaller hard drive and ram. both those are very easy upgrades. The hard drive was a smaller 256GB SSD. After a dozen games installed from Steam i was running low on space. So $100 later and I now have a second 1TB SSD. So far the 16GB of factory installed ram has been sufficient for most games I play. As this is my first gaming rig, I cannot compare it out to something else. However, if you are looking for a laptop that plays PS4 quality games, you cant go wrong.

I’ve only had this laptop for 2 days and already it’s BSOD three times. I only have steam, discord, GeForce experience, and chrome downloaded.

Good looking laptop which works well, but easily overheats causing performance issues. Reapplication of thermal paste and a decent cooling pad are recommended.

Very good laptop, good price, and fast. Just needs more storage, I add a 1Tb HDD and now it is working perfectly for me.

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.

Great product but no display port

Great laptop for its price, its a bomb!
