The specs on the computer suggest that it's a decent gaming laptop. And actually it is. The initial set up does take a while but even with the traditional HDD it doesn't take too long to start up once the setup is completed. My biggest gripe is the touchpad. It doesn't feel solid. They opted for an all in one (like macbook) where you can scroll and click without dedicated buttons. I'm not a fan of that. Makes the pad feel mushy and unreliable.
It's able to handle ableton 10 with recording and playback without lag (once adjusted) and the processor benches above the AMD FX-8350 processor in the PC I built a couple of years ago for half of the price.
The laptop stays cool. I did test Destiny 2 for a few minutes to see if there was any framerate drop or lag and I didn't notice any.
Would I get this as a hardcore gamer? Probably not. But those are very nitpicky people and will pay for exactly what they want. Is this a good computer for casual gaming on the go and some simple audio recording? Yeah I would say so. A good place to record ideas for music if you get that inspiration and a good laptop to jump in a game with your friends in the comfort of wherever you are.

As much as the average consumer hates to buy ink cartridges for the colors they don't need, it's always good that these are available together to prevent us from having to go make multiple trips or online purchases. I found this set to be cheaper online at Best Buy so they matched the cost (which was great). 5 stars for convenience.

Pack your way to the perfect trip with this Ogio International convex laptop backpack. Its top-loading laptop compartment is convenient for airport checkpoints, and it fits most 17-inch laptops. Each backpack has a zippered opening that lets the laptop compartment lie flat on security x-ray belts. Moisture-wicking air mesh makes travel no sweat with this Ogio International convex laptop backpack.

More than you'd expect

So I bought this hoping that while it is supposed to hold "up to" 17" laptops that it would have some cushion for ones slightly bigger. Luckily it does. I have an HP Pavilion 17334 that measures a little larger so I worried that it would be a tight fit. One of the pockets had more than enough space. So if the computer is smaller then you're fine. The functionality is great and I am a fan of the Ogio brand. Had one backpack from them over 8 years ago and now with this back geared towards laptops I can say that I'll probably buy another product from them again should the need arise.

Could've been released as it's own album

Verified Purchase:Yes
So I'm not a fan of this whole "Deluxe edition" strategy going on. I can see why the songs didn't make the cut (most are written in the same format resulting in a repetitive listening experience) but they're still good. Yes they'll sound the same but if you're a fan of the style of music and the song writing then it's not a bad thing. If you're looking for a "brand new" Blink album then you'll probably be let down. I enjoyed it. I wish that all of these songs had been released either from the get go, or as it's own disc rather than having to buy the whole "California" album again. Since the price would've been the same either way I guess it's. Fun album.

Bought this album on a whim. Having only heard the first single on the radio and being a fan of Davey Havok's work in AFI I was curious to see what he and the members of No Doubt had come up with for an album. It was very reminiscent of Flock of Seagulls "I ran" as I listened to it. It's a solid album if you're looking for a different listening experience. Go in with an open mind.

So I bought this tv because really wanted a true 120HZ refresh rate from an HDTV. I was going to buy an E series non 4K TV but saw this on sale. I thought "oh, I could jump the band wagon of 4K TVs". No regrets. After playing around with the settings I was able to configure it to that fast and smooth display that drew me to the faster refresh rates to begin with.
I do have two gripes with the tv though. The placement for the legs are on the ends rather than centered. My previous tv was a 40" but worked out great on my entertainment center because of the stand placement. So if you're weary of the size, I'd measure your space first. I had to make something work for the legs on this tv as it doesn't fit on my entertainment center.
The 2nd was (and maybe it's common for all TVs) was that I couldn't have that quick screen refresh completely while playing games because I had to turn the "game mode" feature on. If you don't, your controller will experience some major lag (and frustration competitively playing) and throw off your gaming experience. Could've also done with an 1/8" output for a stereo but that's fine, just need to buy another cable.

how i could set up my audio output to speaker system ( i have audio engine speaker in particular)
You'd need to have the red and white audio cables and match them into your system.
