First off let me just say whoever packed this laptop deserves some non paid time off. That was an accident waiting to happen, as my $1100 laptop was getting banged around in a non secured secondary box with one piece of brown paper for padding im guessing?Now for the laptop.STOP LOOKING FOR A LOW BUDGET GAMING PC. This laptop is so slim, so fast, so buttery smooth, you wont find another one like it for the price.This helios 300 with the 1660ti, i7 9th gen processor, 16 gigs of ram, and the AMAZING 144hz full HD screen is an amazing deal for the price!This laptop has ran every game ive thrown at it with high settings at ease, from games like csgo to apex legends and more for countless hours.The only down side ive yet to find about this laptop is the cooling.Maybe someone at acer got tired at their job and smeared the thermal paste anywhere but on my CPU or maybe its just normal that a CPU runs at 90 degrees while playing csgo. Who knows, but you will definitely be wanting a cooling pad with this laptop or Intels XTU's offset undervolt.The tracker pad is precise on the helios, as I have recently found out from MSI that functional track pads aren't in their budget when it comes to the $1k mark.The only down side I have yet to find is the heating issue from the CPU, if I could give any advise it would be to possibly purchase the helios 300 with the i5. Maybe be prepared to under volt the i7 CPU, or wait for it to burn up so you can throw an i5 in it. I have also been informed it is fine for the i7 to reach 90 celcius, but anything further isn't desired.I am also speaking on behalf of my purchase, its not guaranteed that your new investment will heat up to 9 thousand suns but be aware, it can get toasty durring high CPU stressing programs.Overall great build, I reccomend looking at Jarrod's Tech review on youtube if you are still uncertain.
