Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop | 12th Gen Intel i7-12700H | GeForce RTX 3060 GPU | 17.3 Full HD 144Hz 3ms IPS Display | 16GB DDR5 | 512GB Gen 4 SSD | Killer Wi-Fi 6E | PH317-56-70XJ

Ive had this laptop for a week now, and while there is much to like, there is also a few things that make me wish I had bought a different machine.

This thing has juice, runs most games on either ultra, or high settings. I think it ran noisy when I got it, but just down load the nvidia setting, and turn on the quite setting, and life is good. Sometimes I use the turbo button but its loud, use headphones with it. So anyways a great machine.......I need to drop my stars sorry. The GPU crashes about 2 minutes into any game now. I loved this laptop. I had it 2 years. So I need advice against it.

Like everything about it.

I upgraded from having an Asus flip book from 2014 to this. I am very pleased with it so far. I play the Sims 4 with all expansion/game/stuff packs including mods and cc. No lag. Game starts up instantly, move worlds instantly. The screen quality is pretty nice.

the really deliver ,play fornite ,call duty no one single problem,

Very pleased with this laptop in terms of speed, noise level, and features. There is a slight amount of light bleed around the edges of the screen, but I dont use it in a dark room so it really isnt a problem for me. One of the reasons I chose this model was for ease of access for a SSD addition as a secondary drive; very straightforward. (I didnt have to remove the motherboard like some competitors do.)

I got this for my fiancee for fathers day as a gift from me and my daughter (his soon to be step daughter) and his daughter (my soon to be step daughter).

I loved everything about it

Bought one and 4 days after receiving it, it looked like first 2 pics upon booting. Replaced it and the last 2 pics are what the replacement looked like after a few days as well. It would not happen every time, but it would have that white line around the edge for maybe 30 min and would fade back to normal. More recently, the replacement wont turn on immediately after hitting power button. The screen stays black and no response for 15 minutes or so. I wanted to give it one more chance, because I havent read about this happening to anyone else and I received these two laptops right before Amazon went out of stock, so I thought maybe I just got bad ones at the end but, unfortunately, Amazon can only provide a refund and are still out of stock.

Since I do not often require the use of the sound system I will not deduct 1 STAR for a very lousy sound system!
