    • Runs cold, great CPU, high performance
Upgraded from 6800H/3070Ti and it’s been great, even for unoptimized games like Tarkov and PUBG. Great performance and no heat problems whatsoever. As a desktop replacement it works extremely well, but weight might be a problem if you actually trying to carry this thing around with you. Appearance: solid black plastic, looks good, it had RGB lights all around is good if you’re into that. Personally I just put it on solid red. Which creates some ambient light but isn’t enough to illuminate the desk or annoy you at night. Right now it’s definitely a better value for money than 4090 model. Really surprised how cold the CPU runs. I think I never got it higher than 85C. Fans aren’t very loud either. ... show more

An absolute beast of a PC. Performance and cooling are beyond what I anticipated.

    • Powerful performance
Very powerful (at time of purchase). Very bright colours. Surprisingly good sound. Because of big power consuming, working time from battery is limited. Also heavy one

    • Good machine
Style: 16GB RAM
I feel that the computer is over powered in some ways and does not have the true ability to have its max potential unlocked due to the restraint on equipment. I think you can get a less expensive machine that will do the same thing and still have all of its ability unlocked. Got this on sale during Prime Day. 400.00 off so I am not disappointed in the machine but I am in my choices. I could have saved more money by getting another. COLORED, KEYBOARD very cool very nice to have lots of fun to play with the setting. Again should not be the main sale point but sometimes it is. ... show more

The media could not be loaded. I’ve had the laptop for about a week and I love it. This is my first gaming laptop and it does the job. I mainly got it to stream because my old laptop just couldn’t handle streaming without stuttering. I’ve downloaded call of duty warzone and it runs pretty good once you update all of the drivers. Runs better than my Ps5 with no lag so I may be switching over lol. My only complaints are the screen is a little small but you can always plug in a monitor. Also the speakers sound good just a little low but you can always use a headset or any other speaker device to make up for it. I was sold on the price and the cool look of it. There are better laptops out there of course but this is great for people that are cheap and don’t want to spend all there hard earned money like me lmao. I also did the Amazon payment plan. I would recommend this for sure ... show more

    • Fast, does not run hot, with some comments
Style: 18” Nebula HDR | RTX 5080
So far, so good after three weeks. A strong plus is that I can use this on my thighs and it not burn my thighs like the Alienware does. I also find that I like the 18 inch screen more than I thought I would. One small negative is that my power cord loosely pops out of the adapter. I requested a replacement and they are willing and eager to do that. It is heavy(er) but I expect that for everything it has in it. It would also be nice if they had a keyboard that did not have the number pad because that’s just taking up real estate. Doing that would make more space for having separate delete/insert keys instead of combining them as they do now. ... show more

    • Doesnt' work with Bluetooth malfunctions. Armory Crate only works Sometimes.
I purchased this laptop hoping for a premium experience, but I’ve run into several frustrating issues. First and foremost, it refuses to work properly with my Bose QuietComfort headphones. While it can connect via Bluetooth, there’s no actual audio output once paired—a problem I’ve never encountered with other devices. Additionally, the Armoury Crate software for controlling the keyboard lighting feels unpolished. Every time I power on the laptop, I have to manually reconfigure my lighting settings. It’s an inconvenience that really should have been resolved by now, especially at this price point. Overall, the most disappointing aspect is the general bugginess of the software. Features I would expect to run seamlessly (and do on cheaper laptops) frequently malfunction here, making this machine far less reliable than I’d hoped. If smooth, user-friendly software is a priority for you, this model may not live up to expectations. I genuinely expected better performance given the cost and supposed high-end features. ... show more

    • Well Worth The Price
Style: 16GB RAM
Excellent performance, outstanding design, and considerately powerful cooling fans make this gaming laptop a good entry into the Gaming Laptop World. Although the RTX 3050 is obviously not the most powerful in the market, it should satisfy your craving for almost any game and allow you to reach the highest settings in those that are not too graphic-demanding. I've been using this laptop for half a year now and found no issues so far. For those that complain about some weird bugs and error such as the machine not going to sleep mode properly, there is a high chance that it's Windows 11's problem. Update: After one year of usage of the device, I’ve finally identified the cause of issue where the device does not enter sleep mode properly or timely, and the culprit is the Aura Wallpaper or Aura Sync features from the Armoury Crate app. Try disable either or both and the problem is gone. It may be upsetting for not being able to use the features but it is fine by me. ... show more
