    Good Laptop but gets very hot and thermal throttles when gaming. Temps range from 90 to 98 degrees celcius and causes my games to drop frames intermittently. Had to use throttle stop to help with throttling. Cpu runs very fast and smooth. Gpu is not the greatest but decent enough to run my editing softwares and play casual games on medium to high settings.

    Working well, but only need to work on overheating on how to minimize when you play games.

    An excellent gaming laptop with reasonable price, as good as I expected. It does have overheating problem, but mine is solved by undervolting -125mV.

    Ive owned this computer for about 2 years now, and at the time I purchased it, it was fantastic. Obviously as the years go on, games become more demanding, but at the time of release this computer could keep up with many games. I use this computer to live stream, edit YouTube videos, and play games. This laptop, even with a GTX 1060, is more than capable for basic editing and just playing games. Live streaming and playing games however is a different story, which is to be expected. Running a triple A game along side 7 other apps in the background while streaming is incredibly CPU and GPU intensive and it shows in the performance. Personally, I havent had any issues off stream with performance aside from the occasional frame drops, up until the past few months. The computer is now overheating VERY quickly, even in a well ventilated area, which is understandable considering what I put the machine through. However, it has gotten to the point now to where even just playing a game like minecraft, which at the basic graphic settings isnt demanding, it clocks up to 85 Celsius within 30 min of playing. If youre looking for a gaming laptop, I wouldnt purchase this particular model, especially at the price point. The newer ones have a faster CPU and GPU for only $100-$200 more. Overall, ive had a great experience with this laptop and would recommend purchasing the newer model to anyone :)

    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!

    Unboxed the laptop, turned it it on, seemed to power up but all I got was a black display. Acer customer support was no help, told me to ship it to them and they would return it fixed in 10-14 business days. It is going back to Amazon today.

    This is worth the price, it runs smoothly, the graphics are excellent, it runs a little hot when plugged in and gaming, but dont worry its not a problem. Treat this product right and itll treat you right.
