FleaBay gave me the 10% off, but the REFURBSALE15 did not work for me.

It would have been a deal if it worked. But now it is close to a current gen with newer CPU and RTX 4060 price range. I will wait.

Didn't get coupon but this is still a good deal. Might jump on it for some casual gaming on the road or whenever I don't want to sit at my desk.
It's a proper gaming machine. I was running one of the newer Wolfenstein 3D shoot-em-ups the other night on this thing, and it does not miss a beat.

It took me two days to get it set up, though. Had some major stability issues before Windows and all of the drivers were updated, but zero issues since (which is very unusual).

For $150, I upgraded to 64GB RAM as well, so this is a proper workstation as well.

Agreed, it's quite nice, my only gripe is the ACER bloatware is annoying and the fans are very loud.

Good thing these include 2 year allstate warranties then Big Grin. Though if you're using them for gaming, you might want a new laptop after 2 years anyways Big Grin

I agree. This laptop is a good deal but given that it is a gen old and equivalent to a 4060 this close to BF, it will pay to wait unless you really must have it now. Should be a newer or cheaper to get be a great deal although it is solid.

Purchased 3 of these and they are pretty good during original sale a few months ago. A few comments:
1. Just slightly quieter than a hair dryer on turbo. Seriously, this is freaking loud if doing hardcore/high res gaming. Coming from a PC, this was a bit disturbing. If you wear a headset, you likely won't notice.
2. None of the 3 seemed to setup consistently. You would think they would be exact same steps on core OS configuration. Each I had to tweak.
3. I had problems with MW on 2 of 3. 1 couldn't solve with graphics issues and sent back.

Thank you! How is the fan noise while normal/non gaming use?

I checked out with Chrome web browser on my PC, and there's another place to enter the coupon code, pic won't let me apply since I already used it, but I circled it in red where you should enter it in. https://imgur.com/NzkQmB4
