Acer Predator Helios 300 - 2019
The Helios 300 impresses. Its GPU is fast enough for 1080p gaming and esports, and the screen has good contrast and a 144Hz refresh rate. It looks solid and has reasonable ergonomics, and it’s much cheaper than rivals. It misses out on some finesse, but it’s a good budget option.

The Predator Helios 300 is a step up from the company's Nitro 5 line, and it shows in the extras like 144Hz display, overclockable GPU and sturdier feel (though the lid could stand to be stiffer). Even with its few shortcomings, this is still a value-packed gaming laptop, even if it does cross my magic $999 line in the sand.

At this price you're not going to get a super fancy gaming laptop, but the Helio 300 did prove a powerful and reliable workhorse for day-to-day use and for 1080p gaming. It's a no-frills system that powers through AAA games, and really, that's more than enough for most gamers.
