Seems like a good deal. Any thoughts on this? Worth the extra $200 for this vs the WM MSI deal for $799 w/ 1660ti i7?

Havnt seen a deal near this price for a 1tb and 16g ram for a while. I'm seriously considering it, looking for someone to convince me otherwise lol. Also wondering if it will get even better in next two weeks. This 10% off coupon ends tomorrow for this deal.

I figure for the upgrade in memory and ssd I had plans for anyway, I think I can justify this price. Is the gpu in this closer to the 1660ti or 2060?

I think it's in between the two

I believe this was $837 a few months back.

Right now, IMHO the 17.3" MSI with intel and a rtx2070 cold be the best deal.

But as a 15.6", I really like the HP Omen... sold as cheap as $1050.00 when it first came out with ta student ID (this is the one with the larger HD and more memory)... came with a 1660 Ti.

Not for nothing, but the omen 15 I have has a bios that will NOT allow you to boot a non-windows OS. When I called them to find out why, they literally said it was microsofts fault, like they get to decide what bios features and capability are built in. Called it "anti-piracy". Last time I checked, you couldn't pirate linux, but what do I know.

Some people don't care, but not being able to run things like clonezilla and/or its derivatives was what I was missing.

I tend to agree, these are some really nice specs, the RAM and HD is icing on the cake with an already quite powerful combo of CPU/GPU. Makes this a lot of machine for the money! What would really make this slick is if it came in the metal G7 chassis with better cooling.
