> 24 hourI’m an Acer customer for two plus years and will continue to be so. Been using for two months and absolutely loving it. Faced few issues when I updated Nvidia drivers to latest but when I reset it to Acer provided drivers it was working in beast mode again.

> 24 hourHi, this isn’t my amazon account It’s my mom’s. I know very little about computers and rams and graphics etc. but i really enjoy gaming and I wanted to get a laptop that I could play a large variety of games on while running them fairly smoothly with little lag etc. This laptop is wonderful, the 1 star reviews really scared me, but it really is a good laptop. The screen looks really clear and bright, the keyboard lights are all working and nice, BUT as many people said this laptop does get toasty, my CPU has been at 170° (Keep in mind i was playing GTA 5 which makes the laptop work a little harder) F which sounds bad and I got scared when I first saw that it was that high because i thought i was damaging something, but I looked into it and laptops like this are safe up to 221° roughly and if any damage is occurring do to overheating it will shut down on it’s own. I purchased a tree bee cooling pad as well because it was recommended (honestly think you could go without it) but it helps some if you’re really worried about the heat. Also this was my first time buying a laptop, and buying from amazon. I noticed that you have the option to pay $120 for a setup, DONT DO IT. I looked at what exactly they do, and it seems like such a waste of money, you just open your laptop, plug it in, turn it on, and start installing whatever you’d like on it. I also wasn’t aware that it comes with norton antivirus installed on it (1 month pre paid subscription) and after the month I’ll probably just use a free antivirus, because I’m not too worried about that. The battery, the battery isn’t amazing, but it’s also quite expected. This laptop is very powerful and I’d say you get an hour of battery during gaming, but having it plugged in while gaming isn’t really a big deal. All in all I was scared about this purchase, but it was a good idea and i highly recommend this laptop if it seems to be what you’re looking for.

> 24 hourBought on sale. A laptop with 8th gen i7, 256gb SSD, 16 gb ram, GTX 1060 graphics card for $999 is an amazing deal. The 144hz screen is sharp and a very rare feature at this price point, most are 60hz. The body is black aluminum with red backlights. It feels sturdy and looks great. The bloatware was minimal, I was able to uninstall in minutes. I have been playing the Division 2. I haven’t experienced any of the overheating issues described by other reviewers. I plan on cloning the 256ssd to a 1gb SSD for more adequate storage. This laptop is a no brainer, Costco doesn’t even have a deal this good.

> 24 hourdecent laptop for the price if it worked the way it should. Im not sure if its this model but getting a constant 15-25 fps on Farcry 3 on LOW settings is absurd. Constantly above 90 temp and constant thermal throttling due to that. Im in the military and chose this laptop because I thought it would be pretty decent to game with on the side while not working but boy was I wrong. Atleast 1-2 hours a week is spent looking up how to fix these issues with nothing working for me. I wish I went with a better brand if it meant the quality would be better,

> 24 hourI 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
