- Dave2D review of the 2019 Acer Predator Helios 300. This is the best gaming laptop Acer has made at this price point.
Helios 300 on sale - amzn.to/30aG29o
With a GTX 1660 Ti, the 9th gen 9750H from Intel, and a 144 Hz screen this puts every other competitor in the laptop market in a tough spot. If you're gonna compete in this space, you gotta play against the Helios 300.

I legit think that most companies HATE the existence of this gaming laptop. This puts a LOT of pressure on companies to make something competitive.
Dave Lee hey, you said something about eGPUs and cost efficiency. What exactly did you mean?
where are the glass tube lights from in your room?
@@kareemosi-efa2418 To get a eGPU setup is costly with the card and the enclosure and they dont maximize the GPU's performance. So you are better off buying a laptop with a better GPU in the first place or using a desktop.
Dave Lee ... where is the GPU and CPU comparison video this year?
Good point about the AC adapter hole, i liked the way you're thinking 👍Good Job
When Dave Lee says that a 144hz screen is a nice treat

Always super impressed about your content delivery. It's like you could just do the whole thing in one take.
This guy is really good on reviewing laptops! He is one of the reason why I've bought Helios 300. Now, I'm doing some gaming benchmarks based on my personal experience on this amazing laptop. So far I've reached 70 degrees C while playing different games.
Which model is it that u r using and how is the cooling system ??
Helios 300 bought last 2018 until now still performing good. You just need an inclined position cooling pad to help the cooling system specially when playing games.
@@jlntgamezone4865 which gen and graphics model ?

Hey man can you suggest a gaming laptop worth 800$?
I am happy that they ditched the red and black colour scheme, the new colour looks much cooler.
Govind Ruby now I’m waiting for a gaming laptop that is more sleek and minimal (that’s less expensive than the Razer Blade)
@Legority check out Lenovo y530. It’s sleek and minimal, and cheaper too, but acer performs better.
@@Legority go for the Lenovo Legion laptops

That's what's dumb about this guy
@@kristinafraxx5808 it isn't that serious lol
He didnt name them tho
Well Asus did a good job except for not having as good thermals, hence limiting the performance
And that is why this guy is a Savage!!
I bought this in 2019 and till date, it's a monster - killing almost everything thrown at it .. Kudos to ACER..!!
Same here! Got mine in the summer of 2019 and is still performing strong today. I plan on upgrading mine by the end of the year, though, since the 256 GB it came with isn’t cutting it for me anymore, haha. I also plan on upgrading the RAM while I’m at it, just to make it the best machine it can be.
Yep true dude I also still got this laptop I got in 2019 as soon as it came and one of the best gaming laptops never got me in trouble or anything but some things they got have made it better like the ssd they putted it 256 they could have made it 512 gb but I upgraded it and bought a new one and still a beast never overheated with mine but the cpu reaches 92
I’m having trouble with predator sense on windows 11. Are any of you facing any issues?
@@ass5kickin what trouble ?
@@dhruvsaxenadstar its causing errors on windows 11. All my games keep crashing. I tried every possible fix but nothing seems to help. I keep getting GPU errors if predator sense is installed.
Everyone, this laptop is on Amazon sale today on $999. Only 19 hrs remaining.
How do you see how long a sale lasts? I was about to buy it, and it went out of sale. I'll wait for a similar sale I guess
Franco it was on that days sale. And every sale last for 24 hours.
I keep checking the Amazon's today's deal option.
FYI the Acer predator helios 300(i7, 8th grn) is on limited time deal on Amazon for $829.99(original price is $999.99).
it's also a great laptop.
@@binodsujakhu8858 Thanks! And yes, I saw that deal. But the GPU is a lot better in the 9th gen one. I'm not sure what to do.
Franco , this 9th gen might come to sale again on sometimes near. I think it will be on sale may be on Black Friday or on Cyber Monday. So, if you can wait for upcoming deal, wait for it. Else that is also a great laptop.
Also another thing, i saw Aleinware 15" which original price was around $1500-$1600 not sure, was on one day sale at $999.
So, I just want to say keep watch on the today's deal Amazon.
Franco also, i saw this Predator 9th gen , is ome sale for $1099($100 off).
All this time, Dave was standing. My life has been a lie.
Hahaha
for real!? My reality is fading...
The cake is a lie!

Reality can often quite disappointing
Looks good, let me check the price
_Wow that's amazing value_
(☞⌐▀͡ ͜ʖ͡▀ )☞
i wouldnt say it looks good, it looks decent. but yes, for 1200$ it's a steal! highly considering in getting this, i really wanted the razer blade 15 but they dont sell the gtx 1070 anymore, i have no use for rtx graphics that puts +1000$ on an already expensive machine.
Maybe? Idk? Compare it to the msi gs65.. its a good competitor
@@SpaghettiPlays Wtf?? How is this a steal???
@@frankiesslipal3730 for this configuration , screen quality and build quality ,also considering that this is a laptop ,it sure is a steal , all other laptops with this kinda metrics cost 200-300 more dollars at least ,and they generally cut on something like build quality most of the time (could be something else depending on which laptop you are comparing with ) , which is even good on this laptop. So yeah ,that's my perspective
Got it for 1000 dollars right now on the Amazon prime day sale 😁
So do I!
Me as well.
same!
another one here!!!
So did I! It was a steal!
Great video as usual for Dave. It helped me finally decide on a unit to buy. And as someone mentioned the Amazon deal clinched it.
This laptop is insane! I had the opportunity to test the RTX 2060 model and this is gonna be the best budget gaming laptop of 2019, mark my words. Great review!
Unless it craps on you in 2-3 months time. Acer quality is utter shit.
@First Red i had the previous Helios 300. Great performance but it was a picece of shit. Cooling was loud and bad and it broke on me. Procesor kicked the bucket. Had to return it and finally got my money back. I now own a Lenovo y540. It has tha same specs with rtx 2060. It's all plastic but way better built, quieter and no problems after 4 monts. Keyboard feels better, even the trackoad and speaker are better. Also battery life seems to last longer on the Lenovo. I would get the y540 any day. No Acer for me. Not reliable.
@¿What? 😁
I am thinking about buying this one or ASUS ROG Hero 3, what do you say ?
@@saaje2008 i would go for y540. Asus Rog have pretty bad cooling systems and they tend to run pretty hot. All of them. Check some temperature stats and see for yourself.

I appreciate this review even in 2020. I have this machine cued in my Amazon cart as we speak. It's a gamimg device but also has great specs for video editing. Subbed.
Do u have it?
I bought it after watching this. some other dude said that their fans sounds like a lawn mawer tho so i'm kinda concerned
WHY buy a great $1200 laptop when for only $1000 you can buy a great monitor stand made by APPLE!!???? Smh
😂😂😂
Jovan Leon this is getting old
This will never get old been dealing with apple tards since 2012 when apple went to shit saying how great they are good to see people are seeing the company for what it has become rip steve jobs
You are overreacting here, i mean its only $999, not a $1000, are you insane?
hahahaha....
And now watching this on my Helios 300. Awesome man!
thank you, Dave. I got this as an early present for myself. good purchase
Thank you Dave. I took a long look on your reviews on the best value laptop and I bought this laptop. It’s been almost a year now and it has been really great. 🙏
i sometimes forget dave is decent a most games and thats why i keep coming back most people review beast devices but dont know how to use them THANKS DAVE
You got yourself a life time fan, i've been looking for 3 months for a low budget gaming pc, and was about to take a lenovo legion (had tested it at a friend house) but the i saw this vid and asked more about it, it is strangly known to be the best and can compite with the 2000+ $ ones but no one talk about it coz they won't sell the rest of there things otherwise, and now that i have it, maaaaan it feel soo gooood !! Again thank you for you videos and keep up the great work man !!
How is it!
Heym can you tell how is going with it? after 10m? cooling problems? any issues?
Always appreciate this guy's reviews
Thanks Dave for the recommendation!
I've been using the new helios 300 with the 9750H and the 1660 ti, and man, let me tell you, it's amazing. It can handle everything you throw at it. I love it
Does it go well with video editing? How’s the color accuracy with this one? I’m currently comparing laptops to laptops for my both gaming and content creating device. Hope you reply man thanks.
@@phproud3541 I wouldn't know what to tell you in terms of video editing but the cpu performance is exceptional, so i don't think it would be much of a problem, and the display can get the job but I'd opt to get a really good monitor if you're doing really professional work. I hope this helps!
@Wow. If you're not doing some heavy gaming or putting too much stress on the processor it doesn't get hot at all, but if you do game for a long period of time, the top of the keyboard will get really hot. Even though it might get hot, it doesn't thermal throttle at all thanks to the stock undervolt. I hope this helps!
This Man Never Disappoints! 🔥🔥❤️❤️
Just saw this on sale, watched your review and bought it! Thanks Dave!

Dave Nov 2019
I noticed the Amazon issues and I have finally come to an conclusion, that Dave be honest, the products you get from Acer are always well tested and well maintenance. Basically well built but after the hit they throw shits in the market and people think they will get good results .. but if you reading this I hope you understand that your reviews impact a lot on the product values.
Duuude thanks I Just found out about this today, I was skeptical as heck about last years model or rather to just try to get the 500, but hell, if this is fair enough, I think I'll just try to go for it! This review cleared any doubts I had
Got mine today! Can't wait to stress test this beast.
Hey i owned the old predator 300 and it has terrible thermals and i think dave is right, the manufacturing is inconsistent. The way i fix it is rather easy, the problem was not the fans nor construction. There are three things you need to do if your helios have bad thermals:
1. Replace thermal paste with a higher quality one (i use kryonaunt and the temp drop to 60c to 70c and it used to be 94c to 99c)
2. Clean the fans, i open mine and it was disgusting.
3. Undervolt, very easy just use intel xtu. The sweet spot is -115.
You can find short guides on youtube if you are inexperienced, hopes this help.
i just got the Acer Predator Helios 300 (2020) and this thing flys, im very happy with it.
my config:
Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop,
model: PH315-53-72XD
Intel i7-10750H,
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 6GB,

do u have this issue, where the fans would ramp up to 3750 rpm while it's charging on idle and low battery? looks like everyone is having same issue tho
thanks for the review. It was very helpful
great video...luv and support from nepal...though i regret now over not choosing helios 300 over legion 5I i recently bought

Been looking for a new gaming laptop. Man I think i am going to pull the trigger on this one. This thing looks sweet. Awesome review. Currently 1100 on Amazon. Not bad. I see from other comments i missed other sales but 1100 def doable.
Thank you for review is very informative.
Yay, the one I bought is actually good lol, I'm glad I lucked out.

Your review made me buy this laptop and it's AWESOME.
Wow that was great what you said at the end because I wondered the same thing about the previous model which I was interested in buying but I'd rather spend $200 more and get the newer model since it has so many great improvements, its well worth it.

Just bought a Helios 300 2019 model in my country earlier in the year before the lockdown and I must say, I'm enjoying it a lot. 9th gen i5 RTX 2060 but 120Hz screen. Not bad IMO especially in 2020.
who else is not a computer geek but still watch dave for the quality of the video
Holy $$$, I bought Acer Predator Helios 300 last year after saving up some money.
Then Acer released same model with much better specs.
Man this is depressing.
And next year they will release a new model again, what is your problem? Tech will not going to wait for your savings
Stop being poor!

Hi Dave can you review the Dell g3 2019 model? It looks like a really good laptop but I wanted to get a professional advice.
From a G3 owner, i have the 2018 model with the gtx1050, the screen is not great and from what ive heard it now has a gtx1650 standard in 2019. Its a good laptop overall.
2:01
Ah, the corridor crew's guillotine channel. A fellow man of culture.
Got it today for Christmas. Solid laptop and the best gaming laptop ive ever had. And ive had A LOT. Happy Holidays everyone.
Bought this weekend for 999. You're advice was significantly affected my decision!
how are the thermals..and battery standbuy
Bought the older one. Been chugging for 2 years and its great.
Hey Dave! Can you do a 2019 Nvidia Mobile GPU guide?
It's so much more complicated compared to the 10-series because of the new RTX Series (2080, 2070, 2060, Ti-Series, Max-Q series), 16-Series (1650, 1660, 1660Ti), and the MX Series (MX150/250/350).
Also, maybe (just maybe) you could add the new quadro series? Anyway, the important thing is on the rtx and 16 series, and I will really appreciate if you can make a guide video. Thanks!
Id like to add in that I've had the Acer Predator 17 since 2.5 years (typing from it), and it runs flawlessly till now. I previously owned an Acer Inspire 15, until I wanted to play heavier games. For anyone doubting the brand, Acers products are absolutely solid and I have faced no hardware issues. Picked up the Predator on Daves recommendation.
Yep I have owned the predator Helios 300 2019 model working like a charm still using the bad thing about it that the cpu reaches 92 but it doesn’t reach up to 92 only max 92 which is okay for a gaming laptop and I really play heavy games on this beast
+Dave Lee Hello Dave Lee. Great review! I've been watching your videos for a year now. And I can see that you like this beast. I have a questions. Is this good for video and graphics editing. Does the color with this laptop accurate or near accurate?
Can you do a review on the GPD P2 Max because I wanna know the gaming performance 🙂
Please do a review on Legion Y540. It has exact same components and I saw on some reviews it beats undervoulted Hellios 300 in userbenchmark, cinebench 20 and more
hey can you give me the links of those reviews?
Thank you dave I will buy this now. I think it is still a good buy this 2020 :)
You made me buy this on Black Friday, thanks.

Dave can u do a review on Acer Nitro 7? Seems like a hype for average budget consumer with concern of performance and price and oso compatibility
You should do a $800-$1000 gaming laptop for a budget
What do you think?
You will be looking at 1650 and 1060 around that price point.

love this laptop, just got mine today. First gaming laptop, keyboard is smooth and running games on it goes well as well (cs go, overwatch, league of legends)
I also want to buy this one. But I dont know which is the cheapest 1TB SSD suitable for this device. You got any idea? Thanks.
Acer has a laptop version who goes by nitro 5 that is the same as this in everything, graphic card, processor, SSD, 144HZ, Killer Ethernet, with the same design too for the same price xD (my pc is an Acer too. 1000€ Specs: Gtx 1660ti, i5-9300h, 60hz screen, killer ethernet, 256gb SSD with dual M.2 Slots)

Watching this on my helios 300. You and Jarrod's reviews helped me decide to buy this. Thank you.
ThatOneFruit ThatIsTasty is it still worth around the end of 2019 and early 2020? Should I wait a bit longer to see what else is going to come out. Should I wait to see if the price will drop or anything else I should be aware of?
@@fm5m482 I got it on sale so definitely worth it for me. It's the best laptop around in this price range currently but the 2020 model may improve on certain things. You won't see a graphical upgrade since new nvidia cards are still a ways off but it'll probably have an i7 10th gen core. 2019 model is definitely worth a buy though I'm thoroughly enjoying it.
Did you're helios 300 not turn on?
@@hmof826 ?
@@thatonefruitthatistasty708 apparently some people have had some broken helios 300 when they ordered it, it didn't turn on for them
i am currently watching this on my 2018 17" acer predator helios 300.
I can confirm that on several occasion's the temperature was at 98 degrees Celsius BUT this will only occur in 2 situations:
First i notice this will happen in a demanding game since games use both processor and graphics card power to run (it is my theory that due to the heat pipes being so close the temperature of the processor and the graphics card are influencing each other raising the temperature) and when the processor hits about 40-50% usage and the graphics card is at 80%+, the temperatures reach the mentioned 98 degrees.
The second scenario where this can happen is when doing heavy rendering scenes (for example Archicad with about 50.000 high definition objects with the medium settings and maximum details on 1080p photo render image. This process will be using the processor at 99% which in turn will cause the temperatures to reach 98 degrees or even 99 EVEN if the graphics card is still at 0-5% usage.
This will not happen on graphics card renderings or when the graphics card is at 80-90%+ usage if the processor is bellow 40%.
I can say that even though the temperatures where high i have never experienced a shutdown while using this device extensively as my main driver for gaming and 3D rendering (i use this laptop every day for 10h+ on average) since November of last year.
The high temperatures happened in a fairly hot room (the temperatures during the renderings and gaming inside the room where at 40+ degrees Celsius although i think that the laptop was contributing much to this temperature, acting as a heater and raising the temperature quite a bit) the laptop also gets incredibly hot on the keyboard above the heat pipes and the processor/graphics card to the point where using the keyboard or touching this area will feel incredibly uncomfortable and you will be unable to do so for an extended period of time due to the intense heat.
Although i guess the heating should be better on a 17" laptop compared to a 15" version i can see why users of those laptops would be getting the 100 degrees Celsius temperature and shutdowns. Also the laptop is 24/7 on a cooler pad with 2 big ventilators which have quite a bit of power and they are turned on always when rendering or playing games. Also predator sense (acer inbuilt fan speed control app) is on max fan speed with cool boost on and the graphics card not on turbo mode.

So pleased I ditched my desktop and got one of these. I can still hook up to my 1440p monitor and get some good fps with the 1660ti ... I've also ditched windows and installed Linux mint on mine... Loving it!

@@born2win259 compared to the 1660ti the minor jump in fps isnt worth the price bump for a 2060 tbh
Battle so they say, but my Asus GX502 didn’t have any other option but the 2060, 2070, or 2080(I got the 2070). I’m sure there has to be a difference or they wouldn’t make any sales.
@@born2win259 plenty of comparison videos for 1660ti vs 2060 in laptops. see for yourself. the FPS jumps are there just not enough to justify the price bump imo
Battle oh , yeah I got the 2070. I literally just got the GX502 yesterday. I’m going to run it on some games and see what kind of thermals I’m getting. I’m really looking for a laptop with good thermals (or at least doesn’t burn my fingers with the keyboard) and I also want it for school. Will have to see if this proves to be sufficient

with that kind of chassy, they won't able to. just like macbook pro.
After 2 years of constant gaming/ mining and being used in a desktop fashion; I can easily say these are some of the most robust laptops you can get. They are too powerful for the input given to them and take heat like it's nothing.
I've put mine through some serious extremes and easily setup over 1,000 different laptops in my years of electronics retail. Take my word for it; Acer has come a long way.
Watching on the predator helios rn!!! i love it.
Ok just got this and this is the best of the best . It has the best specs on the market for the budget that it withholds. If your a person who studies sincerely and plays for pleasure this is the one. I firmly repeat THIS IS THE ONE!!
