first, i do not play games but i gave the product five stars in that area based on other functions.this was a refurbished laptop so the review is for the seller, not the pc. i think i have been using it for three or four years now, if not longer. the price was great and i recall some small problem after i first bought it but the seller stepped up and it was no longer an issue. it may have had to do with the battery power icon. i forget. all i know is that i have used this laptop very much and am very pleased.
