It's a very good budget gaming laptop. Make sure you buy an extra 8 gb stick of ram (I bought crucial) and it'll unlock the full speed of the laptop. Also make sure the Nvidia drivers are up to date and activate coolboost on the control panel. I just have a keyboard issue that seems to be a common problem. For example when I play a video game and I try to sprint, the W button will stop working or have some input lag in it. Seems to be the only key that has an issue so we will see what other buttons have a problem. If someone has a solution to this I'd be very happy.
