Not sure how to play heavy games

The laptop was good, I could run the sims with over 144gb cc. But I couldn't run second life or cyberpunk? Frame rates were dropping to 16 and would only stay at 26fps

Great Gaming Laptap for the MultiTaskers

Great gaming laptop for my teenager. My 14 year old likes to multitask and watch you tube videos at the same time while playing games like Genshin Impact. This game takes up a lot of memory/cpu and his old desktop just could not keep up. This laptop has had no performance issues so far (knock on wood) so yay for that. I was able to get this on sale around Christmas and saved a few hundred dollars. This was a perfect gift and my son loves it.

From gaming to streaming this is the computer for you!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The first thing i noticed about this computer is the weight but after that it was the speed that everything pulls up with. Even my teenager commented there was no lag when his game was loading. Due to the size I wouldn’t think this computer would not be one that would be carried around by a college student but more so one you set up at home. After using this for a couple of weeks I can definitely say it’s the best laptop I have used. From gaming, to steaming, to working through emails or scrolling social it hasn’t lagged once. The colors are vibrant and I love the light up keyboard! It was easy to connect to my network printer and even had a charging port for a fast charger! I would recommend this and am pleased!

Great Medium-Budget Gaming Laptop!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son is a big gamer, and was really impressed with this laptop. He loves the larger 17.3" screen and it's better graphics card than his previous computer. The keyboard is fast and quiet, and you can change up the lighting colors and effects to your preferences. It performs well, gaming for hours with friends, and doesn't get hot. Still uses a traditional charger, and not a USB-C.
