Very nice for gaming and has an RTX graphics card, good for 3D software applications like Blender or Maya.

Beautiful, large laptop. Was so excited. Charged it up, powered it on and within the first ten minutes or less, it restarted without prompting. Thankfully I wasnt working on anything that needed saving. I attempted to download Steam and run a game. Within another ten minutes it restarted again from it obviously powering off without any prompting. Cant use a gaming laptop if you cant even work on Microsoft Word or a video game without worrying its going to shut down immediately. In the three hours I owned it, it powered down six more times. I packed it back up and called Amazon, which was another nightmare. They wanted to give me the run around about UPS pickup rather than shipping from store. I have a full time job and live alone. There is no one to be there to meet at a time that I couldnt even schedule. Id be at the mercy of UPS on when they wanted to arrive. I had it packed up and ready to ship. Finally after a very frustrating few phone calls between Amazon and UPS they sent me the shipping label as they should have done all along . Now Im sitting here fearful that theyre going to try to pull some other stunt on Amazons end not to refund me almost $1200 of my hard earned dollars for this junk that doesnt even work. Buy your technology from another source than Amazon, folks. This has been and continues to be a nightmare.

Yes, its an expensive laptop. This isnt for someone who just wants to surf the internet. This baby is a beast. I play The Sims 4 on it with the highest quality graphics possible, and it runs like a dream. It also looks amazing compared to the 2-year-old MacBook Pro I was previously using. Its a great size - not super portable because its really heavy and large, but that wasnt much of a surprise. I just love this so, SO much. As for battery life, when Im using it for non-gaming, its really long-lasting, but it does use a lot of power when Im playing games, so I need to keep it plugged in.

Definitely a great laptop for gaming. The price-performance ratio is guaranteed. The chassis materials are very plastic, but if you use it carefully there would be no problem.
