This is a lesser known brand that made high quality gaming laptops for an original price of around $1200. This was my original gaming laptop when I was younger I was huge computer geek and was well aware of maintaining quality and taking apart the laptop to clean. I would like to highlight a few issues I encountered to allow a careful decision with this purchase. The first laptop has a few "cracks" in the monitor frame that are of no concern to the performance. It has mild scratches on the exterior, and one spot on the interior. I provide a cooling pad with this laptop specifically because it does have some problems with high temperatures when running high intensity games a prolonged period of time. However, I did have this thing hooked up to a monitor, mouse, headset etc. Which is highly demanding for a laptop. This will run most games but may struggle with high demand games like rust and some VR. All in all it is a great laptop for mild gaming and doing any kind of work with applications, and could most definitely be used for things like CAD software. The second laptop is in much better condition with one small hairline fracture in the monitor frame. It runs much better in respect to temperature but still may run at higher temps occasionally. Other then that it runs well and performs great for everyday use. I will say the battery life on these laptops is not great although there's not much to expect in gaming laptops. They should be plugged almost always, unless its being used for things like YouTube. I used these laptops for quite a bit until I built a new pc and they haven't been used since. I redownloaded games like fortnite and rocket league to test its capability and there really were no problems! Cooling pad is include for free.
