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

Used this laptop for less than a week then blue screened. Only played Overwatch, a small games on steam and did homework. Price seemed too good to be true and I wasnt wrong

I immediately set mine up to dual boot between Ubuntu (18.04) and Windows.

Every game I tried to play either crashed or completely froze after maybe 30+ mins of playing. Gets very hot. But while the game worked the graphics where good and the laptop is very fast.

I bought for gaming and I couldnt be happier with my decision. Youll need to be close to an outlet tho, when not plugged in the battery last about 20 minutes.

Amazing product. does everything youd expect from a 8th gen i7 gtx 1060 6gb. flawless gameplay from everything I threw at it. would buy again!!!!

The laptop meets the performance expectations however it tends to spike up to 95-100 Celsius. This is primarily occurs in actual gameplay and not benchmarking or stress testing software. This occurs with fans set to max output using Predator Sense and using Coolboost enabled. Attempted to use Intel XTU to undervolt the CPU however this has minimal effect and the CPU will still hit above 90 and throttling is still experienced. Suspect this is primarily due to bad thermal pasting job, which I refused to do as it would immediately void both the Amazon and Acer warranty. Its a shame since Acer put a lot of work into adding additional cooling features only to have it negated by poor build/assembly. I will most likely return this and pay a little extra for another laptop with better build quality.

Its a really great laptop for the price and the specs .. its really fast and has an almost 6 hours battery life not 8 ... gaming w it is really great but its worst problem is that the higher the graphics the hotter the laptop gets but rather than that Im having a really great experience .

Im not sure why it didnt come with a 1TB HDD like I thought it would have. Unless I cant find it or something this machine comes with very low memory/storage. With just 256Gig I see this filling up VERY fast and slowing my gaming experience down. PLUS NO RGB IITS STUCK ON RED ONLY

Llevo 2 meses utilizándola y de la nada comenzó a apagarse sola sin mostrar error alguno, por lo que parece tener problemas con el diseño de su fuente de poder o algo relacionado. Nada recomendable.

Very good value. Powerful and can handle demandind loads for music production with heavy plugin use. It has anice feature where you can control fan speed and regulate the temperature manually. I like everything about this laptop except the battery life. Its terrible. I get about an hour maybe an hour and a half of life off the charger on airplane mode with lowest screen brightness and only running my DAW.
