Greater than one weekIts alright for gaming till the heat catches up to it. Frame rate depends on the game. It can go potato on the newer games and ok on the older games. Overall not really a gaming laptop. Its disappointing while gaming. Recently I opened it up to reapply heatsink paste to discover few screws were missing on the fan and tape wasnt sticking to hold the battery wires.

Greater than one weekThis laptop is too good to be true. Great price for FTC 1060 and 8th generation intel, but it is unbearable how hot it gets even with a cooling pad. It is also very loud. Had to return it and pay more for a computer with similar spec but better cooling.

> 3 day**Update** I WOULD LOVE TO RETURN IT AND THEY FIX THE SHUTDOWN DEFECT!!! I’m over being sick and tired of it just shutting down whenever and without notification!! It’s not hot, it’s not being worked to capacity!! I work from home and when I am screen sharing and your laptop just shuts down...it doesn’t look very professional.

> 3 dayThis is an upgrade from the 2017s Helios 300, and a good upgrade it is. I got this during Black Friday sale, but been eyeing it for long time. Compare to other laptop with same specs, you are getting a better deal with this. Pretty much a full 144hz display and an overclock i7 chip. The build is quite strong and there is barely any form of flex on both keyboard and display. With the 1060 6GB, you are pretty much getting a full desktop power in a portable system. The keyboard isnt super bright, nor dim. Sadly you cant change the brightness level of the keyboard nor the colors. The track pad is right about the good size and uses standard windows drivers and it has soft clicks, same goes with the keyboard. Having an access to HDD upgrade and Ram upgrade is a great bonus as it is one screw away to upgrade.

> 3 dayI planned to use this laptop for gaming, but the cooling in the laptop is not effective enough to cool all of the parts. I get frequent frame drops even in games like rocket league and counter strike go on modest settings. The specs at this price are too good to be true. Also, after a month of moderate use, one of the hinges used to open and close the laptop has come out of its framing, which wasn’t due to any dropping. I should’ve returned it when I could’ve.
