Best For A Budget Gamer
If you're a semi to serious gamer that is in the need of a gaming laptop while also on a budget then look no further. The Predator Helios 300 is just right for you, the big brother to the Nitro5 and an amazing model.First off, I picked this laptop for two main reasons, first the Nvidia GeForce GTX 2060. I wanted a GPU more powerful than the 1660TI's that most laptops around the $800-$1000 range have. I wanted the laptop for VR diving though so the GPU was most important to me. Second was the RAM, I wanted the 16GB model, not an 8GB model specifically. For VR mainly but also for most bigger games I felt that 16GB was needed. The CPU is also nice its the newer i7-10750H, id have been okay with the 9th gen but I am definitely pleased with the 10th gen. It is a powerful machine that will get the job done and can run any game I've tried to play with no problems. It only comes with around 500GB to start with but the device has slots in the back that you can use to upgrade the storage level easily as well you can easily upgrade the RAM. The upgradability is an amazing plus that really helped sell me on this laptop.Some people have made complaints in reviews on amazon and on YouTube that I saw but to me none were any problem for me. Ill address the big one first, the battery life, if its not plugged and you're gaming id say you'll get around 3 hours before you need to plug it in. BUT THATS FAIR, this is a powerful machine acer tried to make as cheap as possible for us. The turbo and overclocking doesn't even work if its not plugged in so you'll probably always have it plugged in. Next thing I read in the reviews is the fans, and I'll admit they get pretty loud when in use they get pretty loud when on medium to full blast but again I see it as fair so the machine can cool itself. Plus you'll most likely have headphones on that will block out the sound. But overall the biggest and pretty much only flaw I have is I felt I needed to get a third party cooling pad cause I'm always worried about the CPU and GPU heat levels even if they stay in a safe-ish zone.There's a lot of little features I could go into about this machine, lots of little things that make it really nice but that could make this review enormous. This is a laptop I would use for gaming mainly, as in I don't think I would stream with this though I'd bet you could. But the biggest thing I wanted to get across in my review is that if you're trying to avoid the $1500 laptop zones this is the machine for you. The specs and the price make it the best choice for a dedicated gamer on a limited budget.Ver másVer menos
