Una excelente laptop gamer 🤯
Una buena laptop gamer y para el trabajo pesado la llevo usando un por de semanas y sin ningún problema es súper eficiente en cualquier tipo de tareas gracias a su rendimiento en su tarjeta gráfica, en comparación a mi antigua laptop Asus Tuf F17 gaming la diferencia es increíble. Hasta el momento no me ha dado cuellos de botella en ningún aspecto (ya sea gráfico, ventilación o almacenamiento), sin duda disfruto mucho más de los videojuegos y las películas con su gran pantalla y la frecuencia de actualización ultra con esos 240Hz.Sin duda recomendaría comprar está laptop para aquellos que necesitan de un buen equipo para trabajar o para el gaming si es que está dentro de tu presupuesto considero que vale la pena.

At most, I’d be willing to keep it for $1600 but not worth anything more
This laptop is a good laptop for someone that wants a gaming laptop but it has very limited life span:1. Entire laptop is cheap metalloid like plastic2. It heats so much during gaming that you can fry an egg omelette3. While gaming, it sounds like you’re directly under an airplane about to take off4. Screen is not stable and sturdy while laptop is openVisually it’s ugly:1. You pop it open and there’s an end that sticks out2. The lights behind screen are not symmetric—professors said the screen is distracting3. Any part you touch will end up showing your fingerprintsScreen resolution and fps was nice on bf6, fc26, etc but there no point to having a touch screen if you can’t use it as a 2-1 tabletMy biggest hate, I spent tens of hours researching a laptop with capability to receive video input from my desktop—it could not although it has the hardware capability. As if software did not allow it, i tried 24 different combination of wires and adaptersLast comment, just build your own pc

solid after some tweaks
poor quality for this amount of money. started overheating after 3 weeks because of poor liquid metal installation on the CPU and now its almost unusable. The cpu is constantly at 98 degrees even when idle, and sometimes shuts off from overheating. also, its not touch screen, as many reviews say. the screen looks good but it is flimsy. The lighting effects on the back panel and keyboard are really cool though.UPDATE:After manually changing the liquid metal and adding some to the gpu (The gpu had regular thermal paste before), the overheating shutdowns have stopped.after testing different armory crate settings, reducing the p-core to 4 and the e-core to 4 removed all of the system wide lag problems. I also set dedicated graphics memory to 8 and the laptop is running smoothly at max fps for most games. cpu temps are still regularly at 98, but it doesn’t seem to have a negative impact on performance.

Damn fine laptop

Fast, does not run hot, with some comments
So far, so good after three weeks. A strong plus is that I can use this on my thighs and it not burn my thighs like the Alienware does. I also find that I like the 18 inch screen more than I thought I would.One small negative is that my power cord loosely pops out of the adapter. I requested a replacement and they are willing and eager to do that. It is heavy(er) but I expect that for everything it has in it. It would also be nice if they had a keyboard that did not have the number pad because that’s just taking up real estate. Doing that would make more space for having separate delete/insert keys instead of combining them as they do now.
