I promise last comment but most useful - It has extremely bad reviews so please steer clear of this device, especially a refurbished unit.
Incorrect. It has excellent reviews with the biggest flaw being noted as heat issues and battery life, which can be mitigated with a underneath cooling pad and plugging it in while gaming. Other than that, it was noted on most reviews as being the "best bang for your buck" laptop in 2025.
I have a refurbished one, cooling pad don't do jack ****. I regret buying this laptop, I can't do any gaming on this junk without it shutting down
The worse part is acer locked down the cpu. You cannot even undervolt which would have helped. I would never buy this brand ever no matter how cheap. Saving a few 100 dollars and end up with fire hands or thermal shutdowns isnt worth it.
U should have gotten the msi vector 5070ti with amd chip at walmart.com. it has an excellent 1600p screen too. Its loud but i doubt its acer loud. it was 1300 for the longest time.
A much better system.

Unfortunately, it's outside return period and also I am based outside US. I used a parcel forwarding service.
I am looking to change the liquid thermal paste with PTM soon.

Do not listen to this guy. Steer clear from this laptop

Agree, I got a refurb for around this price over the summer and it has been totally fine, and this is after I bumped up the wattage of the GPU. For normal tasks, you don't need a cooling pad either.
