All ports are on the left side. The fan spins up when you're plugged in no matter what. You can fix that by cutting the power of the cpu when you don't need it.

Battery life is decent enough but I always keep it plugged and never charges above 60%.

Ummm screen is okay, and the keyboard has lots of backlight bleed. Can only be blue. I always have it set to the dimmest settings.

If you're right handed and using a mouse then wireless mouse is needed or you'll have the cable either in front of the laptop or by the heat disperser in the back of the laptop.

Does get hot even with normal use.

Any other questions just ask.

Gets the job done when I want to play something chill in bed

1080p HIGH 60+ fps. So very capable for moderate gaming. If you want higher performance it would cost around $850 minimum to get into the next tier of GPUs.

I'm confused. Lots of people here claiming it was $400-450 a year ago, yet this has been listed as Frontpage deal? Who's correct?

Other users are saying that similar spec laptops were around that price last year. Not the same laptop.

This seems like a good deal, but I gotta know if it's also good for console games that have PC versions - or just good for high-end FPS games?

Last year a similar laptop for $449. Minus the 1TB HDD & it came w/ a i5 9300h CPU but same GPU.
So, not similar

Laptops with similar specs were going for $400-$450 during November of last year.
Exactly…wait for BF…actually mine had the more efficient 4600H for 449 last year, not this intel crap

1TB HDD can be had for like $30 and the 9300H was more of a modern CPU last year obviously. 4600H was the the other option in the HP laptop for $450.

As a point of reference I bought a 10750H Acer with a 1660 TI for $650 last year. I know there's no time machine and there's inflation but $630 for a laptop with a 1650 is not really a deal.
