Revainrating 4 out of 5

I don't understand the computer specs, so ask a normal person for a normal people rating.

Let's get one thing straight - I'm NOT the best at computer specs and don't know much about them, so I'll just say what I do. it is so. I don't play the hardest games so I'll just say what I play and how they do it. A few other popular games for anyone interested are GTA5/Online, Minecraft, Subnautica and the very difficult Skyrim. I can play all these games on the highest possible graphics display and they run like clockwork. There are no lags, nothing, this computer handles games very well. The cooling system is fantastic - I've put it on the bed many times, there was nothing underneath to breathe and it didn't cause any problems - even with very heavy games. It can get warm, but never so hot that it crashes or affects performance. The design is sleek and the backlit keyboard is a must for people like me who play in a dead dark room. Battery life seems to be average for most gaming laptops, averaging around 3.5 hours. If the battery is low, it will die as soon as it warns you to plug it in. This pup stays connected to the network. In general, the design of the computer is made of cheap plastic, but it can withstand impact. However, it is cheap plastic and it started to fall apart on me year after year - however this is most likely due to my mistake. The screen and the front of the screen (the border around it) decided to fall off for me. This would have been easy to fix with superglue if the laptop's bezel and hinge hadn't come loose. The screws came loose and fell out of nowhere. The hinge has come loose and won't close parallel to the keyboard (it's about 1 inch out of the way). This is most likely due to MY handling and not the laptop itself, but please keep this in mind when carrying things around. Advantages -. VERY GOOD COOLING SYSTEM // You can close the vents on the bottom and play a heavy game and it won't even get very hot. Never crashed and had no thermal effect. GOOD GRAPHICS DRIVERS // Play heavy games and at maximum settings everything works like clockwork. VERY good for beginners who play heavy games and want a beginner laptop. FANTASTIC SPEED // VERY fast computer - startup never causes problems and never takes more than 15 seconds, even in the worst case. Minuses -. CHEAP BODY // It is made of plastic and easily falls apart with rough handling. Be very careful when traveling. It doesn't hold up well and will fall apart if you're not too careful. Failed for a good year, but that's all. You CANNOT access it at all - for example remove the battery to do a hard reset. Even if you want to try, don't do it. Difficult to get in and hard to find anything. That's all. This is an amazing laptop and if you install it on your desktop you will have no problems. Very fantastic purchase and I fell in love with it. Too bad I broke mine. Would definitely buy again.
