No Frills Processing Horsepower
By thetjb
The last few reviews have touched on this but I want to make certain people understand, this is an outstanding gaming laptop. The processor and GPU are light years beyond what you'd get in this price range and it shows in high demand gaming environments. The hard drive is a bit slow on load times but once you're in, you're absolutely golden. I spent a good bit of time attempting to find a cheap laptop I could take to and from places and still be a functional gamer, and this exceeds expectations.Keep in mind, though, that you're sacrificing elsewhere. The screen is bad, the keyboard isn't great, the trackpad is just abysmal. It isn't nearly as sleek as a new ultrabook from whoever else might be out there. But I personally didn't buy it for any of those reasons. However, if you can spell "aestetically pleasing", look elsewhere. It's a $750 laptop with one of the most powerful laptop processors out there, and a pretty nice mobile GPU to boot. You're losing some polish.Now, I bought this laptop because it crushes similarly priced laptops with the might of a herd of bison. It does this all day, every day, and if you're looking for either a ridiculously powerful laptop for some sort of work or a gaming laptop under a grand, this is it. The niche for this laptop is small, but if you're in it, you'll be exceptionally happy.A note: it's easier to set up the screen gamma, etc. to be slightly off axis as you're viewing it. The optimal viewing angle is so small it's actually easier to adjust it to being off axis than on, since if you adjust it for being on axis you're looking at not being able to even think about moving your head. Oh and don't even pretend to be able to game with the trackpad, you need a USB mouse.

By 100miles
With qual core i7 and Nvidia GT 640M, this laptop is among the best performing laptop among 15" laptops and still not too heavy.It runs Skyrim smoothly in ultra mode. Launching and running regular applications are simply blazing fast. It can convert video between different formats super fast as most of the video converter software support Nvidia encoding acceleration.The laptop is black glossy color. With only 1.3", it is thinner than most, if not all, other laptops in this class.The keyboard feel nice to type. The extra numeric keypad is a little bit distraction.The speakers are OK. No complaint on this.The display needs gamma adjustment. I followed the instruction in Windows Color Calibration utility but adjusted inside Intel Graphics Property -> Gamma until the black/white dots looked good per Microsoft instructions.My rating for individual aspects are below.Performance 5Style 4Size and weight 4Display 4Audio 4Keyboard and track pad 4Still, I rate 5 for overall because my main purpose of buying this laptop is performance - both for gaming and video conversion.

Great Laptop With Minor Customization
By Justin R.
After using this laptop for about a month I can say that it is truly worth the purchase, it is not without minor flaws however. To start off, it is a relatively stylish laptop. It's subtle for the most part which i think is appealing in comparison to obnoxiously styled gaming laptops. The build quality is around average (maybe a little less considering the price range) although the keyboard is very good. As far as specs go, for the price, it can not be beat. It is not without a few disadvantages however. Sadly, the only OS this ships with is Windows 8, which is unstable, not the least bit user friendly, and a huge pain to install Linux on. When I received it, it also had a WiFi connection issue that was a real pain solving considering Acer's abysmal customer support. If you decide to purchase this, installing Windows 7 is a MUST. Oh, and it also runs pretty cool as well.*The driver to fix the WiFi connectivity can be found on the Acer V3 drivers page (google acer v3 drivers) and is called the Wireless LAN Driver (new) by vendor Atheros.
