Used for: More than a year
Not a single problem in all that time
Bought it expecting to replace it by now, and there is no reason to
Used for: 6–12 months
Still no throttling after a lot of long sessions
The RGB lighting cannot be dimmed as far as I would like
Nothing has changed since the day it arrived, which for a gaming laptop is worth saying. Same speed, same temperatures, same noise. The only thing worth fiddling with is the lighting, which at 20 percent is still brighter than anyone wants at night.
Used for: Less than a month
Replaced an ageing tower and the difference in every game is embarrassing
Used for: More than a year
The only thing that has changed after a year and a half of near daily use is that I have run out of games that trouble it
Used for: 3–6 months
Holds its clocks through a whole evening without dropping
Balanced profile is still audible in a silent room
Replaced a thin gaming machine that spent every session throttling, and the contrast is the reason I would recommend this to anyone choosing between the two. Same performance on paper, entirely different experience in practice, because this one can actually get rid of the heat. Six months in and there has been no slowdown, no dust problem, and no sign of the fans getting noisier as they age. Temperatures under a long session sit in the mid seventies. It is not silent. Even on the balanced profile there is a constant low rush if the room is otherwise quiet, and on performance it is a proper roar. Neither has bothered me, but anyone expecting a quiet machine should look elsewhere.
Used for: Less than a month
Runs everything at the top settings and has not once had to think about it!
Used for: Less than a month
Everything at maximum settings without a stutter
You feel the weight the moment you pick it up
Arrived, went on the desk, and has run everything I own at the highest settings since. All 3.4 kilos of it is heavy and the charger is heavier, so this is a machine that stays where you put it!
