I bought it for my gaming sessions and I'm really pleased with it! The performance and build quality are spot on, perfect for intensive use. LDLC were professional as usual and delivery was fairly quick. I recommend it!
Good PC, delivery time respected and fast nothing to say.
I took a mouse logitech or lower price, it is very small but does the taff
First gaming laptop.
A lot of research to find a compromise that suited me in terms of graphics card, RAM, processor, screen, peripherals, user opinions and cost.
I'm very happy with it. The screen rendering meets my expectations. The responsiveness and fluidity of the games are just as good.
The battery life for watching a film is good enough. Using it in virtual reality means you need to know how to use it or be persistent in your research to set up the remote desktop. The usb-c port display for connecting a headset is a plus for keeping the headset charged.
Personally, I've added a cooling base to protect the PC's components.
Service, ordering and delivery: smooth and fast.
Thanks to LDLC.
Works as expected, very responsive. The battery does limit its use away from the mains, but this has very little impact on my day-to-day life.
Overall, very happy with this gift from me to myself.
This is my 1st gaming laptop, so I'm not running very resource-hungry games (currently Factorio and Rogue Trader, which play smoothly and have fairly fast loading times).
I haven't had a chance to connect it to a larger screen, but I don't think there'll be any problems!
As always, LDLC is top notch for my computer purchases, with great after-sales service and very good customer relations :)
Corresponds to the description, problem at start-up, unstable Wifi link, solved by BIOS upgrade following advice from your after-sales service.
