The GTX 1650 graphics card in this laptop will give you enough power to play most modern games, though you may have to reduce some graphical settings for a good experience. You can get a good idea about the card's performance from our original GTX 1650 review, but keep in mind the laptop version is slightly slower (due to thermal limitations).
While there aren't many professional reviews of this specific laptop, it has received positive reception from buyers. The GF75 has an average of 4.7/5 stars on Adorama, and 4.4/5 stars on Walmart (though the Walmart page is for a version with a 512GB SSD).
