This 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i71 laptop will take your game library, place it in front of you, and dare you to give it a challenge. Not only does Helios look good while dishing out frame after frame, but this RTX-empowered machine is fully optimized for maximum graphics power.

BUILT FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF GAMING
12th Gen Intel® Core™ processors give you superior gaming performance while delivering the flexibility to seamlessly multitask. Innovative new architecture matches the right core to the right workload, so background tasks won’t interrupt your game - giving you the freedom to chat, browse, stream, edit, record, and play without skipping a beat.

NVIDIA® GEFORCE RTX™ 30 SERIES
The latest graphics are powered by NVIDIA’s 2nd Gen RTX Ampere architecture to give you the most realistic ray-traced graphics and cutting-edge AI features like NVIDIA DLSS. New Max-Q technologies also utilize AI to enable thin, high-performance laptops to be faster and better than ever.

BOOST PERFORMANCE WITH AI
NVIDIA DLSS gives games a speed boost with uncompromised image quality. Crank up the settings and resolution for an even better visual experience.

MORE IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCES
Ray Tracing is the holy grail of graphics. It simulates how light behaves in the real-world to produce the most realistic and immersive graphics.

OPTIMIZED POWER AND PERFORMANCE
NVIDIA Max-Q is a suite of AI-powered technologies that optimize laptops to deliver high performance in thin form factors.

COOLING PERFECTED
The Helios 300, as a high-performance gaming laptop, includes only the best, state-of-the-art cooling: custom-engineered 5th Gen AeroBlade™ 3D Fan Technology and the chilling effects of liquid metal thermal grease on an already industry-leading 12th Gen Intel CPU.

ONE SPEED: FAST
At up to 17.3 inches on a pristine QHD panel, the Helios 300’s high-refresh and quick response keep your gaming fluid and fast-paced while NVIDIA® G-SYNC® eliminates any potential tearing.

KEYED FOR TOTAL CONTROL
Make that per-key1 RGB backlit keyboard shine with Mini LED1 backlights that are brighter, require less power and are more uniform in colour (with less halo) than their non-Mini LED counterparts. Access PredatorSense™ to further personalize the RGB to your own style.

PERSONALIZE WITH PREDATORSENSE™
Pop open PredatorSense™ and mix and match colours to your heart's content. Whether you want to adjust your RGB via Pulsar Lighting for a particular theme, manage overclocking, or max out fan speeds – you can do it all from one easily accessible app.

KILL THE LAG
With the Intel® Killer™ E2600 Ethernet Controller, Intel® Killer™ Wi-Fi 6 AX1675i, and support for the Wi-Fi 6E frequency band, you have all the tools you need to clear out the online competition.

STAY CONNECTED
Plug all your peripherals into the full range of ports, including HDMI 2.1, MiniDP, and a full range of USB 3.2 Gen1 and 2 support. The Thunderbolt™ 4 also supports DisplayPort functionality and Power Delivery3, while the latest HDMI 2.1 specification allows you to use an external display such as 4K at 120Hz.

DTS:X® ULTRA

Warranty

We stand by our products!

All our products are covered by a manufacturer's warranty unless stated otherwise on the listing (usually under the conditions tab). This applies to manufacturing defects or hardware faults that develop in the first months of ownership (between 6 and 12 months depending on the item).

All orders are posted with a VAT invoice in the box showing the date of purchase, price and VAT details. Please keep this invoice safe as it is sometimes required for warranty claims. You are of course welcome to contact us for a replacement invoice if needed, and we can also email copies if you would like a digital version.

Please note: Any item delivered damaged must be reported to us within 48 hours of receipt.

In the event of a fault developing in the first 14 days of receiving your purchase, please get in touch with us as soon as possible, we will help you with troubleshooting and resolving the issue. If a fault develops after 30 days, you will need to get in touch with the manufacturer to open a warranty claim. This will usually involve letting them know what has gone wrong and they will arrange for the issue to be rectified for you. If for any reason the manufacturer rejects the warranty claim, or you have any other difficulties please contact us and we will be more than happy to help.
