1.0 out of 5 stars Garbage that doesn't load simple websites properly, do not buy
By archeress6
Update: I tripped on the cord and shattered the screen and frankly I'm glad it's dead. I fought with the graphics drivers, wifi drivers, and everything else and I'm just glad it's dead. Seems to have serious issues with the graphics card or processor. Upgraded the RAM to 64 GB and it still only loads small squares of screens especially when loading web browsers. Complete garbage, would return if I could but too late now. Will never order from them again.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the hassle
By julia
I purchased this computer with 12 month warranty. On the 13th month the charger port went bad and its soldered on the inside and not replaceable by local repair shops. I guess it needs so much heat to repair so it destroys the computer. I called Acer..they wanted $699 to ship and repair. This is crazy! I will never buy Acer again!

5.0 out of 5 stars Runs my Sims perfectly!

This computer is amazing. Definitely worth it. This is the first real gaming laptop I’ve had and it makes a huge difference. Zero lag on my sims and I have almost all the add ons. I played the sims for like 3 hours straight and it barely got warm. Highly recommend!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great gaming laptop

Excellent laptop. Runs much quieter and cooler then my Helios. Very fast. Works well for what I use it for mainly World of Warcraft but handles other games quite well. Very pleased with this purchase.
