Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop PC, 15.6 Full HD 144Hz 3ms IPS Display, Intel i7-9750H, GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 6GB, 16GB DDR4, 256GB NVMe SSD, Backlit Keyboard, PH315-52-78VL

Its a pretty good laptop so far. Ill start with the bad and end with the good.

I have had this computer for only 2 days now, but initial performance has astounded me, I spent hours researching this computer and one of the largest concerns for me was the temps during gaming, out of the box I deleted all the bloatware and installed GTA 5, hooked to a 1440P display, maxed the graphics out and ran in turbo mode, and held 60 Fps for my 1 hr play time, at 1080p or with slightly lower settings it will push around 90 fps, with high settings on 1080p it caps at 144. The SSD may be small but there is a second slot and the load times are seriously fast compared to a hdd, one thing I did do, I took some Lego blocks to sit the laptop on so the laptop has better air intake from the bottom, with maxed out graphics and turbo mode on GTA 5, CPU averages 80c and gpu 70c, cant wait to try more demanding titles on this laptop

Nice

So Ill start with the fact that this laptop came with undervolted cpu which I found kinda strange. Played PUBG on ultra settings, max cpu temps were ~80°C and gpu max temps were 70°C (max fans on both).

great computer with great performance and quality except i hear a constant echo when audio is played. I tried every solution i could find on the internet and there is still an echo. All of my other devices work fine with the same 2 headphones but when i use this there is huge echo. Predator Sense also stopped working after a few hours using this for first time.

Overall happy with performance and quality. However, I am very unhappy with the excessive fan noise even at idle. I have a Lenovo Y50 from 2015 that is way quieter while gaming than this one is just idling. You can even here the fans when the lid is closed WTF. I’m finding it to be a regrettable purchase.

Awesome investment!

RunS a little loud but overall awesome gaming computer!

I’ve had this laptop for about a month and I have to say, it’s my baby. I love playing on it. I’ve repurchased games I already own and they look and run amazing. I purchased a Corsair mouse and a 2 TB SSHD (quickly maxed out the storage space with fallout 4 GOTY, Skyrim and Ark)

Great gaming laptop for the price! My only complaints are that it arrived with a stuck pixel and some blacklight bleed. Otherwise this thing is a beast. Battery life is a non issue for me.
