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

Love the look and portability of the laptop. There a few twerking in the setting and graphic so game can run smoothly but overall it was a nice update from my outdated desktop to this laptop. Little tip, dont let nvidia experience optimize your game. It was this program that took make me a whole week wondering why even low end game skip frame and literally after uninstalling it(after updating the drive) it drop cpu temp by 10 degree while gaming which was hitting 80 degree on game like maplestory 2 with it on. I had to reinstall it to upgrade the driver but didnt let it optimize the game. Overall it a great laptop for that price.

Great for low tier gaming but I noticed common frame drops in games like csgo, fortnite, and call of duty.

I dont know why I considered Acer an inferior brand. This far exceeds dell or HP in quality. They are not even in the same league as this company. The only thing Im missing is a touch screen, but thats minor compared to all the gains I got. I hope you too consider this brand. Thank you Acer

Very happy of this purchase

My grandson loves everything about his computer. With kids, the more gadgetry, the better. Love all the colors! He loves it! Very happy with this purchase.

Love the laptop overall. But dont wonder to far from an electrical outlet, she eats the battery up. Materials are great, doesnt feel flimsy at all and boots super quick, under 15 seconds. Buy a cooler if you are thinking of using it for gaming, a $20 cooler makes a big difference.

everything ok

UPDATED REVIEW:

Received a model that does not include the caddy/bracket and cable for 2nd hard drive. This was pretty disappointing. I immediately contacted Acer chat and the person there was unable/unwilling to help me and told me there was nothing that they could do. After receiving a message from the manufacturer, I placed a called and a very helpful customer care representative made arrangements for me to get the kit in the mail. She was unable to tell me why I didnt get the kit pre-installed but theorized that it was an older computer that Amazon had in stock from before they were included. Well see how that goes.

I recently purchased a gaming laptop that I had to return due to problems to the motherboard so when I started to search for a new one found the Helios 300 model which at the beginning I didnt care much until Acer launched the Helios 300 2018 model which was an instabuy to me.
