Acer Aspire VN7 5913G-73KV User Review and Ratings

• Excellent!
  Timbo (May 24, 2017) on Amazon
  Perfect size, excellent performance! I also like that it the styling is very subdued no big chunky red spaceship trim or huge obnoxious looking grills. The soft touch on the bottom is pleasant, and the brushed feel/look material everywhere else is great! The most intense activity that I use this for is emulation, and so far it hasn't had any problem for anything from SNES to N64 to PS2. I did a lot of research in purchasing this laptop, and it hit just the right spot for style, size, performance, and specs for me.

• It runs my Vive and that's what I wanted it for.

  So far so good! It runs my Vive just fine. It scores in the mid 7's on the Steam VR test.It's a great, sleek, fast laptop that doesn't scream "Gamer Laptop".

• I'm extremely happy with this purchase.

  Great laptop for its cost. I found HDD slow, so replaced it with SSD and now its just perfection. Tried playing different games on it and could say that temperatures should be extreme for throttling to be activated. Usually in game it becomes really hot, will see for how long its casing will last.

• ACER ASPIRE V15 NITRO REVIEW
  A_R_T (Jul 29, 2017) on Amazon
  UPDATE : AUGUST 5, 2017 - As promised pleased check updated photo of unit temperatures (CAM monitoring) during HD video converting (Wonderhare Video Converter). using only laptop fan for 15 mins... CPU temperature reached up to 83℃ and GPU 64℃Fan tends to throttle during heavy load to compensate the heat, sound it produced is tolerable.My unit Fan In idle / normal load is silent.My previous laptop MSI is also have temperature build-up during the same usage (Converting video / Gaming) due to sleekness design / limited airflow... this will be the negative sides you have to endure...just use additional accessories (cooling pad) to dissipate heat build-up during longer / heavy use) .Still in my opinion, for the price.. highly recommended..Pros;1. Sleek , Premium Build Quality and Portability2. Good Display Screen / Sound2. Fast Performance / HardwareCons;1. Heat Build-up2. USB ports Location & distance to each other (2.0 left side / 3.0 right side)Previous Review;I'm a member of AMAZON since 2013 and.. very seldom to rate a product.. intended only to share/ help decide other people if it's worth to purchase such item.. :)I bought this laptop as replacement of my beloved MSI GE72 6QF APACHE PRO 17" for two reasons; 1. Slim Design and Portability!!! (it fits nicely to my Oakley Big Kitchen Backpack) 2. and FUN!!!!I'm not a computer geek, but love gaming. and some fixing knowledge :) ... so I spent hours searching for budget friendly gaming laptop then stumbled on this ACER unit...I read some reviews.. especially the negative one's but still decided to try it.. (kinda risk taker..)..I decided to proceed upgrading the HDD of Laptop and do the advance fix? this to avoid OVERHEATING ISSUE / LOUD SPINNING FAN by applying new CPU/GPU Thermal Paste....I hope ACER still reconsider not voiding the warranty :) .... in attached photos shows all the components inside and how the original thermal paste was applied (which might the reported uneven high temp / fan rev in other units).. During my tear-down following items was used.... (Believe me it's not easy but you can!.. just utmost care shall apply) - (1. Vastar Prof. Opening Pry Tool Kit 2. Seagate FireCuda Gaming 1TB HDD (for upgrade) 3. Artic MIX-4 Thermal Compound 4. Tekton Precision tools 5. ArticClean 60ml Kit ) The results; No Loud / rev. Fan or High Temp... while in normal use ie; watching / converting HD video / Surfing the net - Temp: CPU- 43~48 / GPU - 40~43 Deg using NZXT / CAM pc monitoring software) not yet tested for extreme / extended game..after installation... I will provide performance update ) /

• Nice looking, VR Ready, Slim gaming laptop.
  Edwin A. Rodriguez (Dec 14, 2017) on Amazon
  VR ready. Using it with a Vive doesn't lag at all. Does need a cooling pad but other than that this is a great machine (and nice looking as well).Battery lasts about 4 hours if used moderately. Performance is affected if used unplugged for VR but that's expected. The computer's RAM is up-gradable which is nice. Overall I'm very happy with this purchase.
