The issue here is that we don't have the balanced mode results that the reviewers said it was okay and even sometimes no fan noise in idle.
So how much consumption it has in idle in standard mode and what noise it does? we don't know because it was not posted.

Massive shortcomings of the model are immediately visible:

1. Disgusting screen quality. The author could not even calibrate it below dE<2. Low contrast, high response time despite the fake "165Hz". Screen bleeding and bad brightness distribution (85%) well, this is generally a modern scourge even on the top series, although this is solved by multi-row lighting, on which everyone saves.

2.Disgusting (not good for work) keyboard in the presence of a huge place in the 17" model, spoiled (right arrow to the  place for Insert key) and narrowed numpad. Again, narrowed like all the others Esc, F1..F2 row. Why does no one want to make a normal keyboard? Do they all have a conspiracy? What is nonsense? You can order a normal one at any factory, even now. Even Lenovo has a 17" keyboard that is narrower in width and height! But this is complete nonsense!

3. You can immediately see, despite the huge weight by modern standards - too thin heat pipes (clearly saved cost for Acer), which leads to monstrous noise even in an office load.

4. Again, disgustingly tuning of ram in bios, which is clearly seen in the AIDA64 tests vs even relative to competitors with Intel.

5. Too much idle consumption!

As a result, we get a laptop that seems to be relatively normal by case, although more ports could have been added to the back plate – it have a lot of empty space, but with a bad screen, a shitty keyboard for fast blind typing(vs full-fledged for desktops by keys size) and an absolutely sucky cooling system that is not only wildly noisy even in light load, but also allows overheating of the power components of the laptop (53C+ on keyboard!).

In fact, there is nothing to pay for here. We send the entire batch immediately under the bulldozer.

Happy shopping!

A small PS note: the idea of putting distracting stickers near the display must be one of most idiotic PR moves.

In standard mode this seems to be a good laptop for an artist with good screen, very good real GPU rendering performance now that Lenovo appear to not do 17.3 panels.
