I've retested the Helios 300 in January 2020 with newer games, newer BIOS, newer drivers, newer Windows updates here: th-cam.com/video/NDFwH3OCLgY/w-d-xo.html
@imhere solook Get Intel's XTU, then adjust the values in small increments and stress test to make sure it's stable.
i got the 144hz with 512gb pcie drive, and i am absolutely blown away...i got mine just a month ago and the keyboard lights up nicely and yes i do have 1660 Ti
Currently selling at 1500 USD why so expensive in your video I can see it for 1199 for same specs is it a bad time to buy a laptop?
@@anpowersoftpowersoft good question.
I was going to like this comment but it's 69 likes, I'll just say nice
These reviews are just ridiculously informative. Good job Jarrod.
Cheers!
@Xye Leyx that is true.
Jarrod thank you for being the only person who actually answers questions that why it's one of my fav channels
YES
No problem at all!
Zetraxes no it’s not from what I heard the laptop get to about 100 degrees the coolings really bad witch lower the performance
Asus FX505: I am the laptop with the best performance/price ratio
Acer Helios 300: I am about to end this man's whole career
😎
Microcenter has an FX505 variant with 3550H and 60Hz panel while keeping the 1660 Ti for $800. Unless this goes on sale I'd say this variant of the FX505 is still the price to performance champ.
helios 300 costs about 2x more than fx505du in my country. so.......
Acer's thermals are trash
@@5000Seabass ...Did you watch the video's thermals section?
Great review! Thanks for the shout out too 👍
Cheers!
Wtf You Real
Is This Real You
Dude let me tell you deserve all the sucesss.. youre probably the best laptop channel on youtube
Thanks!
Indeed!!
@@JarrodsTech Any plans on reviewing the Y540?
Waiting on Lenovo to have laptops available to lend me, been waiting for months though so not expecting anything for a while.
@@JarrodsTech Welp, I'm gonna get mine earlier than you I guess. Getting it from US, should get it 2nd week of July. I am anxious and excited about the thermal performance, I know it's good but is it good enough to get these kind of crazy results like the Acer Helios is getting with a 1660ti. Also worried if my i5 9300H will bottleneck my 2060 or not. Hopefully not. Maybe I should have gone for the i7 9750H with the 1660ti. Oof.
I literally checked every hour for the last days hoping for this review to be uploaded, thanks Jarrod.
It's finally here!
dude, your work is so complete....profissional...congrats
Cheers!
We're approaching the 2-year mark since I bought this laptop thanks to your review, and I still love it! Initial issues were sorted, and ever since it has been a great machine, and hasn't let me down.
Hi, Jarrod. You probably remember that I was in between the Y540 or the Helios 300. I finally decided for the Helios 300. In my country (Mexico) this model has just arrived a couple of months ago (before the COVID-19 thing) and I just got it in a BestBuy sale at 1631.61 USD with the RTX 2060, 1TB+512GB, and 16GB of RAM
how is the performance atm?
como te funciona la laptop estoy por comprarlo.
Were you looking at the HP Omen as well?
Hello, everybody, I'm writing this as an update after 3 months. Long story short: I LOVE IT.
@@AbramVargas La laptop funciona de maravilla. No se calienta tanto, me imagino que gracias al undervolting que vino de fábrica. Estoy jugando Dark Souls 3 en características altas y no se calienta. Sobre todo gracias a los ventiladores. Sí, pueden ser un poco ruidosos, pero ayudan bastante en controlar la temperatura.
Algunos juegos que he usado en ella, de altos recursos son:
- Rome II: Total War - Calidad Ultra
- Attila: Total War - Calidad Ultra
- Total War Troy - Calidad Ultra
- Dark Souls 3 - Calidad Alta
Además de que los 16 de RAM y los 512 GB de SSD me permiten hacer tareas de oficina sin mucha demora.
a friend was asking about Acer Helios 300 sent him here and you uploaded this xD
Good timing!
Find it preposterous as to how in depth and detailed your reviews are👌🏿(in a good way). Just spot on👏🏿
Watching this video with the Acer Helios 300 (2019) , Priceless.
Hope it's going well!
When I looked at the specs sheet they only show that the storage has a 256gb of SSD and nothing else... can you confirm?
@@garn100 yes, but you can 2.5 hdd or ssd for not alot, i added kingston a400 960gb ssd, didn't cost me that much, installing it was super easy.
I can say as of now, im loving this computer.
@@Hakneset How loud is it in auto fan profile mode? And does it get too hot or is it okayish at auto mode?
No, it’s
Finally the laptop review I've been waiting for. Thanks I love this channel a lot.
Cheers!
This laptop is a beast! I'm currently testing the RTX 2060 model but apparently, the 1660Ti one is a sweet spot this year (the FPS are really similar in those 2 models). Great work Jarrod!
Thanks! Nice, keen to hear how the 2060 compares 👍
so you are saying that the performance of rtx 2060 model of this laptop is not better than the 1660 ti model ?
@@sherifhussein5299 It is slightly better but not as significant as people might've thought.
@@MathiasTech so like +10 fps or something like that
also see the fps in this article and tell me if they were the same as your test

@@MathiasTech mine arrive next week. At first i was looking for 1660ti but there is no model at my place only rtx2060. So i make an order for 2060 and hope it work well. My 1st gaming laptop ever
Such a detailed and super neat video , instantly subscribed... Amazing , keep up such awesome work !
Thanks, welcome to the channel!
Answered literally every question I had, thank you
I'm in love with this beast! Thank you Jarrod for the review :)
No problem at all!
Hello there, fellow Malaysian.
I just found your channel and you really helped me make a choice tnx man you are without a doubt the best channel for laptop reviews
Great to hear, thanks!
@Leonardo Gregory I'd like to but it's never been offered to me.
Your reviews were a great help while searching for a new machine. Ordered this one through your link. Thanks for your work!
Glad to hear I was able to help, cheers!
2 years and I still not regret it, works like new and clean the fans every 6 months!! This machine rocks good.
Yesss finally hereee... thanks big bro.... absolutely on time❤
Woohoo!
Litteraly just bought the laptop. I'll get it in my hands om friday and i can't wait.
Cool, let us know how it goes!
@@JarrodsTech my previous laptop had a gtx550 or 560 in it. So this is going to be a huge upgrade. And i'll go back to this comment when i've used and tested the laptop
Yeah massive upgrade 👌
Are you installing a hard drive on it? Can you make a tutorial on how to do it?
I sm still waiting for your comments on your purchase bro 😅
I’m ordering it tomorrow. You review helped a lot. Thanks!
Already loved your videos then I got a glimpse of the In Flames T-Shirt and now we are brothers. 💪 Keep up the good work!
Haha thanks 🤘
Am definitely getting myself this laptop!
Thanks Jarrod'sTech 😊😊
No problem! Nice let us know how it goes 😁 it's always good to hear from others who have used it.
Great review as always, expected no less from you man. Keep up the great work
Thanks!
Finally, you have uploaded the one reviewi was waiting for
👍👍
Love it when people give details about color gamut.
👍
Thanks to Your Recommendation and Bob Or All Trades, I bought the Helios 300 2019 in Feb 2020, with GTX 1660ti, 144Hz, 16gb dual channel ram. I love to type on it, the build quality is insanely gud compared to MSI and ASUS. U helped me, thanku so much, I knew I could trust ur Detailed, Honest review before spending my hard earned money, believe me it means a lot, thanks again.
Hi. Any complaints so far? Are the fans annoying?
I convinced my parents to buy this for school
* Laughs in sith lord *
Nice!
Hahahahaha this was funny
Status upgraded to Alpha Chad
how is it???? i'm palming on getting one how's the thermal system is it good for gaming ???
@@katherineferguson5851 best computer i ever had
Thank you for your review! The most complete, accurate and high quality review
No problem at all, cheers!
Jarrod, thank you so much for this review, it really helped me make my decision. I'm in the US and picked this up off Amazon in 1660ti trim. It is by far the best laptop...or even computer I have ever owned. I'm staggered by it's performance. For those shopping, the 1660ti spec comes with a 256 Kinston m.2, 2x8gb 2666hz Kingston RAM, no RGB just blue (which I love). I added a Kingston 1tb SSD for storage and games, removed Norton, and have been happy as could be. I ran some benchmarks and this thing is murdering most desktops, so good. Best $1200 laptop ever.
How is the backlight bleed?
No problem, that's great to hear!
Mine isn't too bad on the back light bleed. It looks pretty good for a 144 in my opinion. That said, I don't expect much from laptops, I have an Ultrawide monitor at home that I use for serious work.
Hey Dax, how did you add the 1tb SSD to the Amazon purchase?
@@joeeld62 I just bought the separate drive at the same time. You have to install it yourself. Takes like 10 minutes.
Jarrod man, we love you!

Hello jarrod.. Can u make video best gaming laptop based on price range
I want to do it in the future, there are just a LOT of machines in different prices ranges that are popular that I still want to cover.
@@JarrodsTech And when ya get finished testing about half of them, the same number of "NEW and IMPROVED" models will be out!
@@JarrodsTech could you do it at the end of every year to help us with Christmas and New Year's shopping in mind?
Jarrod'sTech my price range is around $1,500 - $2,000 I don’t want to pay past $2,000 for a laptop. I was thinking of buying anything with an RTX 2060 and around i7 9750h. Like the ASUS rig II or the dell g5 at micro center with the same spec at $1,299.99. They both come with one stick of 16gb tho. Pls help thank you!
Jarrod'sTech if you want a pretty good gaming laptop with a good price I recommend an asus strix rog laptop, there is a Zephyrus version going for 1,000 and about 3 others that are asus strix rog going for the same price
Hi Jarrod,
Thanks to your awesome videos, I got this laptop and I'm loving it! Have been having to learn a quite a few things from scratch, as it's my first ever gaming laptop and I haven't had a PC in years. Anyway, after occasionally getting a few stutters during gaming(playing GTA 5), I used GeForce experience to optimise the game settings for me and it seems to have optimised it well. I changed a few of the settings from Ultra to Normal, as I found out that they can really affect fps. The question I have is regarding temperature and power consumption . . . I noticed that after playing for long periods and even with a cooling pad and fans at around 80%, the laptop battery would discharge even when plugged into the mains(only by a few percent) And temperatures could be around 80c to 85c. Yet other times, the laptop battery doesn't discharge when plugged in after a long period of playing(with the same conditions (cooling pad and custom fans)) but I find the temperatures are lower, as in 68c to 78c. Is it possible that if the room temperature is higher, it affects how the cpu and gpu work and causes them to require more power than the adapter can supply?
No problem, happy to hear I was able to help! Dropping by a few percent is pretty typical with most machines, if it's lowering by a lot you could look at buying a higher wattage power brick assuming it's not just a software setting trying to prevent the battery from sitting at 100% to optimize life span. Yes definitely, generally a 1c increase to room temp = a 1c increase to internal temperatures, however I doubt this would affect power draw.
Very detailed review, great job man. I think I'll probably get this (but the rtx 2060 version as that's what's available) on black friday. It'll be my first ever laptop so I look forward to it.
Thanks! Nice, hope it goes well 👍
Keep it up, love your reviews!
Cheers!
Can you compare the 2018 helios 300 to the 2019?
I'm trying to get the 2018 model at the moment so I can do fresh benchmarks to accurately compare 👌
@@JarrodsTech ok thanks! This video is great btw!
Cheers!
Jarrod'sTech was just about to request this! Make it happen jarrod! Take your time though 😂
2019 has faster CPU, GPU, better cooling.
This is the most comprehensive laptop review I've ever seen. Props mate.
Cheers Kyle!
This is one of the best reviews out there on TH-cam very well done 😍
Thanks!
I have made my decision. Definitely picking this one up 👌
Let us know how it goes!
lando hoth that probably is a good idea too. Im picking this because I’m in urgent need, I don’t see them in my country yet, might import one from Australia.
I found u in Dave's video. Your Logo attracted me. Anyways, JT here! But mine's Just Technology.
Nice to see a twin channel,lol
Nice video. Nailed it
Thanks, welcome to the channel!
I bought this model after your review. I'm happy. Thank you.
Glad I could help!
Well detailed and very informative review. This helps a lot to pick which gaming laptop to buy in a tight budget. Salute to you Jarrod!
No problem at all, cheers!
I swear this is the most requested laptop review ever, no matter where i go lol
Yep a lot of people were asking for it!
if there was a button which can make this video like 10,000 times i would press it with all my ids!! Truely man... i just love your videos;)
Cheers!
Thanks for the review! I really liked the black and blue theme of the Predator Helios 300! Really really liked the Predator Helios 300! My favorite color is blue.
👍👍
Jarrod thanks to you I decided to go for a Helios 300 and I was lucky enough to get a 17 inches one with some really nice specs! It was a demo version and I’m still waiting for it! Will update when I receive it
Grats in advance mate, if you don't mind sharing your experience with the laptop I would really appreciate it, as I am about to buy one and still deciding 15 inch or 17 inch
ey, when will we be seeing the new alienware m15/m17? any idea? It is out on their online store, but no reviews.
its good for the price
Please do the new HP OMEN 15 2060/1660ti laptop
And i am still waiting for the 2060 vs 1660ti laptop comparison :D have a nice day great job
For the comparison I'm just waiting to get the correct 2060 laptop so I can do the most apples to apples comparison possible. For the HP review, they still don't respond to me so I'm not able to review their stuff at this time.
@@JarrodsTech If they give you a review unit their sales will go higher cause you are a damn good reviewer and we trust you :D
thanks for the good work...
Incredibly informative review - thank you man!

@@AdarshPandeyFilms MSI sucks, I had a laptop from them and the build quality was pitiful
Hey mate would u say that this is the best laptop to get in 2019? In terms of value/performance
Yes, depends on your country though. In the US it's definitely up there, but other countries like mine the Lenovo y540 can be $500 cheaper for same specs.
Was waiting for this review!
It's finally here!
Great review! I’ve just ordered my Self one.
Would like to see Helios 300 vs ROG Strix G531GU
Both have same specs
Night Seeker Yeah, but strix G has worse screen and no displayport.
@@vaibhav2364 eh? Strix G does have display port lol and the screen its not bad at all
Hopefully I can once they send it over.
Asus is not 🤮Max-Q🤮 tho
Strix G has only 1 M.2 port, which is used by its default intel 660p i guess. Helios comes with two M.2 ports, the default one is WD 720 black, which is faster than the 660p. I got too used to physical numpads for Excel typing, ROG laptops would be my first choice if it wasn’t because of the numpad.
Please review and test on HP OMEN 17 2019 (9750, 2060)
Unfortunately HP don't send me review units and they cost too much in my country for me to buy just to review, sorry. I've tried everything to make this happen. I've sent countless emails to every address I can find, made phone calls, even met with their staff at various events and exchanged business cards but nothing has come of it, so I can only assume they're not interested.
Thanks for helping me make the choice on the gaming laptop I’m gonna buy!
Happy to help!
Hi Jarrod, Your laptop reviews really helped me make the decision, thank you! My Helios 300 arrives this week :)
Happy to help! Let us know how it goes 😃

If the 512GB SSD is M.2 and the 1TB HDD is 2.5" then yes.

Hello Jarrod, Thanks to your awesome video, i finally purchased the Acer Helios 300 after considering many other models and brands. I find the Helios 300 is the best value for money in all aspects.
Nice, hope it goes well!

I have the 2018 version, would be interested in a comparison between 2018 and 2019 version especially thermals

@@kiren3168 yea even the blue color is more subtle than the red color of the 2018

Thermals
Design
But the system is very strong and most of my games are not gpu intensive. I play smite on 150 fps so the 1060 was probably an overkill. But i play minecraft with shaders and its powerful enough to run it

just bought the acer helios 300 with rtx 2060!!! thanks for helping me make the choice!
Nice, hope it goes well!
How is it possible that the 1660 TI had better results than the 2060?? 😮😯
The 1660 Ti is overclocked, and at 1080p CPU is quite important in many games and the Helios 300 performs well there due to the power limit boost + undervolt.
@@JarrodsTech so in theory if you applied the same overclocked settings to a 2060, then it would get better results?
And does it affect the lifespan of the laptop? Or is it a safe thing to do?
PS: YOU are definitely the best laptop reviewer keep it up! 👍👌
Yeah I'd expect so, if it was able to run at the same level of CPU power limit + undervolt. Generally boosting power limit equals more heat which can reduce life span, by how much, nobody knows, it's just a general thing that heat is less good. In terms of GPU OC, only boosting the clock speed in laptops and can't adjust power limits so it's pretty risk free. Cheers!
Don't forget people, electrical components hate heat. You're not going to get many years use out of any of a laptop that's thermal throttling at 100 degrees celsius (boiling temp).My major consideration at the moment while trying to decide which to buy is thermals so so far this wins.....
@@JarrodsTech I oc my Helios 500 GTX 1070 to 170MHz core plus 450Mhz mem, it was stable for some weeks, then it froze my game and now my laptop is freezing for 5s and cold shutdown itself when I do a usage of it... I sent it to repair since I had warranty. The gpu didn't overheat nor others components... Maybe the OC broke a resistor or capacitor... But gpu had its full performance when doing furmark for 50 minutes after closing everything, it freezes and shutdown..
Any chance you can do a review of the Triton 500 next?
I have one here at the moment, but cannot do it next as I have a lot of other machines that I have to prioritized based on when I need to send them back, it will happen though.

Jarrod'sTech VS. Asus Rog Strix Scar iii? Your thoughts?
I'd get the Helios personally, Scar III has lower CPU performance, if you see my Scar III review, the Helios 300 wins in many games at low-med settings despite my Scar III having RTX 2070.
Jarrod'sTech really.. Thanks for your inputs.. I am looking at getting this Helios now at Amazon. Thanks and Good reviews as always
this or the evo/infinity laptop you show
It would be great if Lenovo sent you a Legion Y740 with i7 9750H, GTX 1660 Ti and G-Sync. Wonder if G-Sync's inherent performance boost is still faster than the Predator Helios 300's Turbo mode?! 45 watt CPU + G-sync vs 56 watt CPU + GPU OC?! Lenovo legion Y740 vs Acer Predator Helios 300, battle for the best value gaming laptop!
Frencho9 I think you mean y540? y740 is vastly more expensive than the helios 300
@@vaibhav2364 Certainly not, the Legion Y540 has no G-Sync, so the Helios 300 beats it hands down performance wise due to undervolt and turbo mode. Legion Y740 has G-Sync, and if undervolted it might be faster than the Helios 300. Value is not a synonym of budget or cheap, but best performance per dollar. Legion Y740 is 200$ more expensive for same config as Helios 300 but if it gets better performance than it due to G-Sync, plus better tear free visuals, better aesthetics it could have better value. Lastly Lenovo discounts the Y740 very often bringing it down to the 1200$ price bracket, then add in discounts for students, teachers and military and other public sector and you get even better deals.For exmaple the June promotion just ended last Friday.
Never have i seen a more thorough review 😳 you got yourself a new sub! 😍 im on a budget, and i'm highly considering this pc!
Welcome to the channel!
@@JarrodsTech thank you!!
🤭🤜🔥🤛 you're amazing!
this might be a silly question.. but does this computer run minecraft well??
👀💦 and just out of curiosity, would it be able to run the game with raytracing aswell?
@@Crippley I would expect so, ray tracing would not go very well with the GTX 1660 Ti, for that you'd want an RTX card like the 2060 version as a minimum I think. This is a guess based on what I know about ray tracing, I haven't actually tried to play minecraft with ray tracing on GTX graphics myself.
Hey Jarrod thanks for the review mate awesome as usual, answered tons of questions I had. I'm just gutted that I may not get RGB keyboard when I'm making my purchase next couple of days. I mean it isn't a deal breaker but I really love a good RGB keyboard. Again cheers mate and keep up the good work
No problem! Thanks!
Man I can't find the Helios 300 w/ the RGB configuration and tb3 anywhere ._.
me tooo i could only find it on amazon usa but still no rgb there
Yeah you need to step up to a higher Acer model to get TB3.
Got the 17inch 2019 model from Microcenter and it’s got 4zone rgb, just gotta chance it in the acer sense software

Thanks for the great review.
I need your recommendations for fan pads or vacuum coolers for the helios 300
Vacuum coolers are a meme and hardly do anything, any cooling pad will beat them 90% of the time.
Nice content, waiting to see the comparison between NVIDIA Dynamic Max-q off/on in game
so the 1660 ti beats the scar ii with rtx 2060 what would rtx 2060 version of helios do 😂
Would be interesting to see!
i am getting the rtx 2060 version so i am hoping i see better results
Cool let us know 👍

@@JarrodsTech so there are some new options 2 actually this one and the scar ii with 1070 what would you reccomend and both are the exact same price and yes i ve seen your comparison between the two cards 😁
