  • Well-built, attractive chassis, relatively lightweight, excellent gaming performance, 120 Hz display makes for smooth gameplay (if framerates get high enough), plethora of ports, relatively easy maintenance, good keyboard
  • Thin and light for a 17-inch gaming laptop, Good keyboard for typing, Optional 120 Hz IPS panel with G-Sync, Even the standard 60 Hz IPS panel offers excellent image quality, Keeps the hardware running at full throttle even under extreme workload
