[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This laptop is a great machine for gaming, photo/video editing, daily browsing, and more. I find the 2tb of internal storage to be a great starting point, but I do wish it was expandable without needing to deal with the hassle of a RAID0 array.
When it comes to gaming, I have complaints about the temps it reaches. It regularly jumps into the mid-high 90s, and there's no way to undervolt this model to help with that because the option is locked at the hardware level. Despite the high temps, it performs well, and will be great for a wide range of games. If you are into streaming and recording your gameplay, this also has plenty of performance to do so. The GPU can also be slightly overclocked, which is a really cool feature that I haven't seen in many of my prior machines.
I do have to note that it comes with McAfee, which often reduces performance in games and other intensive tasks. Easy to uninstall, but I would prefer it not be there at all.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great laptop for a reasonable price. Has the power I need to run applications for my software development related tasks, and seconds as a great gaming rig. The screen size and resolution is perfect for multi tasking. Would recommend to anyone as a solid device to preform well for the next couple of years.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far so good. This is a Christmas present for my son who enjoys gaming - a lot. Very nice looking laptop with really good specs. I hope he gets a lot of enjoyment out of it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased for photo editing. Love the screen format and resolution. Performance does not seem to be quite as good as another gaming laptop that I had to return. I like that I can have the dedicated graphics card on all the time.
