I love this laptop!

So I have the 2018 version of this laptop and I was buying a second gaming laptop for my wife. I was already very happy with the 2018 machine, even though it was big and heavy, it was very very capable. Probably the best bang for your buck for a mid-range gaming laptop in 2018.

This model has some detractors out there that complain about overheating and keyboard, DO NOT BELIEVE THEM!!!! I read some negative reviews and have found that they were either reviewing an earlier version or just haters. This computer does everything they say it does and so much more. Within a day I was playing a AAA game on ultra settings with the overclock set to extreme(not that it was needed, just so the computer could have what it wanted and or needed for performance) and this thing just purred like a kitten, in my lap and NO heating issues. I hooked it up to my HD tv and surround sound receiver with the HDMI out and played a game with my PS4 controller(yes I did say my PS4 controller paired with this laptop for a complete game experience). I had to buy a graphically intensive game just to get the gamecard to work (the onboard processor has like 12 cores all working at 4000+ megahertz and it handles a ton of graphics all by itself). When the gamecard DID finally come online I can tell you that Shadow of the Tomb Raider worked in ultra settings and looked incredible(never seen a game look this good nor run as jitter free). The Killer Double Shot Pro makes internet browsing and downloads incredibly fast (I was calibrating the battery and it ran the computer down to 3% for the test and it began to shut down the extra speeds for conservation purposes and you get a sense of the real power you have when this happens...keep it charged and plugged in and this will never happen to you...unless you want to maximize your battery and do what I did...then you will have to put up with it once...only once). To sum up, one amazing computer, best bang for the buck, cannot go wrong and you will be VERY happy with this sweet ride (I built an overclocking machine in 2003 and this is the real deal...much cheaper and you dont have to put yourself through all the learning I did back then).

This is by far the best 1200.00 Ive ever spent! This laptop is used mainly for school and gaming, it has a great screen, great solid build quality, and is super fast. I have been using this for a little over 5 months now and Im loving it more every day. As far as the battery goes it is a gaming laptop, so dont expect much, mine is always plugged in anyway. The screen is bright and beautiful with no bleeding on the edges and is perfect for 1080p gaming. As far as temps go, I was get around 89-90 degrees c when playing AAA games, I bought a cooling pad and because the predator sucks air in from the bottom, it stays nice and cool now no matter what Im playing. The RTX 2060 is a great GPU and the ray-tracing looks absolutely beautiful on games such as Control and Cyberpunk 2077. I would recommend getting an extra SSD and making sure to keep the inside and fans cleaned, otherwise temps will rise and it can get loud. All of the games that I play run great and I get consistently high FPS. Overall, I really would recommend this to people looking for a great value to cost machine. Just go buy it if you are on the fence, you will not regret it. I love this computer almost as much as my wife and kid, LOL!

Sick laptop bro

Solid gaming laptop. Intel i7 10th gen and a 2060 rtx in a well built shell for $1400, a great deal. Loving it right now. So far so good. Customizing keyboard color is pretty nice too.

Hinges for the screen to close down broke and the screen (lid) came apart ie, the front and back of the screen separated.

Able to run FS2020. Thats why I bought it. No issues at this time.

best gaming laptop i ever owned! i never felt the regret for spending all the money on it like i do for everything else.

After spending hours researching what laptop to get, I went with the Helios 300. It has good battery life, a super fast refresh rate and its specs looked really good for the price. The Predator sense app that it comes with is super useful as you can customize pretty much every aspect of the laptop. I only have small 2 problems with the laptop. The fans can get pretty loud at times but you can customize fan speed through the Predator Sense app and the other problem is that when playing games it will blow hot air onto your right hand. Not much of an actually problem but it’s different from my last laptop and something to get used to.
