How good is this laptop?

[Matthew Renna]

Hi everyone,

I'm currently a high school junior about to become senior. Lots of our assignments are online and we were issued chromebooks freshmen year. I absolutly hate the chromebooks and would like to get a new laptop. I will use this laptop for school, but I'd like to be able to play some games on it. I don't want to spend more than 600.

Is this a good laptop?

For school, yes but for gaming, probably not the best. Maybe some simple games like Minecraft, ROBLOX or such maybe even some better games with low settings.

The gpu is around the performance of the gt 1030, right?

Oh and one more thing. Does anyone know if the battery on this thing is replaceable? I'd like to use this for many years without having to keep it plugged in all the time.

No, a GT1030 will be more powerful.

have a look here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EXugzTO5Fy0

you can get an idea of performance on modern games. Mostly low settings, with approx 30-50 FPS game dependent.

Many of the games at a playable FPS are 1280x720 on low settings.
