Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop PC, 15.6 FHD IPS w/ 144Hz Refresh, Intel i7-8750H, GTX 1060 6GB, 16GB DDR4, 256GB NVMe SSD, Aeroblade Metal Fans PH315-51-78NP

Defective keyboard, the letter U key is defective

Recd item today, damaged screen on top, actually those plastic clamp was open. Then started the laptop error configuring , try to reset the PC, and it stop at 58% of installing PC. Something really went wrong with this laptop.

So recommended. Is a fast laptop. I dont have any problems with cooling. I bought a cooling base and works well.

I have owned 3 Acer laptops now including the Nitro 5, and the one with the mx150 graphics card been a very loyal customer. I have never been so frustrated with a purchase from Acer. I feel as though I have been ripped off. Allow me to explain. I have owned the 2018 model Predator now for 3 months I have used it of and on for light gaming and noticed that temps would creep into the 90-95 c range after 30-45 min of play. no problem I thought I will under volt the CPU and the GPU , buy a cooling pad, and that should help a lot. It didnt. I use Predator Sense of course on full blast , and the temps still hover around the 89-92c range CPU and this is in a 72 degree room. I am not playing demanding titles either, Grim Dawn, Path of Exile . So out of fear of damaging the machine I will not use it to game. Acer made small improvements over the 2017 model in cooling but it is not good enough. now i am stuck with a 1000 dollar machine that tries to destroy its self every time I attempt to play a game.

My only dislike is that it gets very loud.

EDIT: UNDERVOLTING IS A MUST. This is something that could take it from a quick return to a laptop you love.

It works fantasticly and runs any game I put on it well

Ive had this laptop for only 6 months and it overheats all the time. Not even while gaming, just using your browser, etc. This means the laptop constantly shuts down, without a warning..! And you have to let it cool down before turning it on again (it wont turn on otherwise) Its too expensive of a laptop to have this bad of an issue. On top of that, the battery life is very poor. It last about an hour. I would not recommend this product.

Amazing im happy with it

I am very happy, With my predator computer. It exceeds all of my expectations completely... If I upgrade I will definitely stick with another predator.
