I've included possible solutions to problems I've had in the cons section. Pros: - Slim size, easy to take with you - Cheap - Open slots inside to upgrade components. Cons (for which I found solutions): - Loud fans coupled with poor sound quality. The volume of the built-in speaker should be high enough to hear the fan noise. The fan noise also means you can keep the mic on during online games and not open it, or your poor teammates will have to hear it all the time. The good news is that there's a blue tooth, so I'd suggest plugging in external speakers or headphones instead. whether it is connected or not. So the temperature of the processor reaches 90 ° C. It is better to have less power or learn to work with lower voltage if you want the laptop to run for a very long time. Wrong GPU used during games. If you are experiencing really poor performance, the laptop may be using an Intel GPU and not a GTX 1650. Go to the NVIDIA Control Panel and under Manage 3D Settings and Global Settings, set your preferred GPU to High. ". -Nvidia processor performance" instead of automatic. -Laptop suddenly reboots within a few seconds after booting when not connected to the network. For me it fixed apps launching and disabling 'Delayed Start'. Not enough storage and lots of malware which made things worse Definitely invest in at least 1TB of extra storage 256GB is only enough for 2 or 3 games unless you play games from the 90's Cons (no solutions , which I couldn't find): - yellowish spots at the top of the screen, only visible when the screen is black - the touchpad is terrible - it's on the left for some reason, so both hands have to be pressed to the left to use it while gaming - no problem if you use controller or mouse. Also the mouse is very slow and hovering. Tried to update the drivers but nothing works, mostly it's very slow! - Keyboard backlight turns on only when you press a key and automatically Power turns off after 30 seconds. Can't leave them on which sucks when you use them in the dark. There are forums complaining about this and the company refuses to add the feature to keep it enabled despite many people asking for that option. - short battery life. This doesn't bother me as I consider gaming laptops to be portable desktops, but keep in mind that this won't last long if you plan on gaming on the bus or plane.
