Im thinking of getting this laptop as a replacement for my current one. Can anyone see any flaws or catches with this and are there any better ones out there, i have a 500Gb ssd to install in it and will be used for  school work and games like Overwatch, rocket league, civ etc

 

thanks

School work as in the machine will sit on your desk most of the time?  Or will you be taking it to school all the time?

 

15" laptops are quite a handful to haul around these days.  And if its sitting at the desk all the time, why not just buy a desktop?  Not to be discouraging, but I've never really understood the overall 'case' for a gaming laptop, other than maybe someone who is stuck in a work camp/dorm.

i have a 15" laptop right now and honestly i dont mind the size,you tend to pay a hefty price premium for something with similar specs but smaller

it is build like shit and the cooling is also a joke.

I've heard the cooling is inadequate for the hardware it packs.  You can check out some laptop reviews on Dave 2D's channel.  I'd say keep looking, you can do better.
