Costco has this on sale for $500 off, it's $100 lower than last time it's on sale. Valid 3/22/21 through 3/26/21. While supplies last.

GeForce RTX - Outriders Bundle Valid 3/16/21 - 4/15/21 (While Supplies Last) One code per purchase. Limit 3 codes per member.

The differences between the other GE75 Costco deal and this one: 144 Hz vs 240 Hz, 2070 vs 2070 super, 16GB vs 32 GB, and this one is 0.42lbs lighter.

When purchased online, Chase Freedom Flex credit cardholders get 5X points for purchases through 3/31/21 (wholesale clubs is a 5X category this quarter). If those points are transferred to Chase Sapphire Reserve and used for travel, pay yourself back on groceries, it is worth 50% more or 7.5X. So basically that's worth between $75 and $112.50 effective cashback. Thanks, RussianBytes for bringing this up.

I. MSI Laptop hierarchy (tells you the build-quality of the systems in their line up)

GT > GS > GE > GP > GL > GF > GV

GT Titan Series
GS Stealth Series
GE Raider Series
GP Leopard Series
GL Leopard Series
GF Thin Series
GV Series

II WHY WATTS / TDP MATTER AND RELATIVE PERFORMANCE OF GPUs

Quote from rruff :
There is no such thing as "standard wattage" for 3000 series cards. 2000 series had MaxQ and "everything else" which narrowed it down a little.
----
3000 series cards have an optional feature whereby they can boost to a higher power level if the CPU demand is low. For instance the max on a 3060 is 115W-130W, where that extra 15W is the extra boost.

When RTX 2060 115 watts is used as a base (100%) for comparison:

3060@60W= 94%
3060@75 W = 100% (inserted by RussianBytes for MSI "GF75 Thin Gaming Laptop" RTX 3060 GPU for $1300 at COSTCO)
2060@115W= 100%
3060@90 W = 105% (75 Base Watts+15 watts boost, (inserted by RussianBytes MSI "GF75 Thin Gaming Laptop" RTX 3060 GPU, $1300 COSTCO)
2070@115W= 110% (inserted by RussianBytes for MSI "GE75 Gaming Laptop" RTX 2070 for $1,200 at COSTCO)
2060@115 watts AND further undervolting and overclocking: 110%
3060@115W= 115%
3070@ 90W = 115% (per joon82)
2070S@115W= 120% ("S" stands for the "SUPER" version of the RTX 2070)

Your comment cannot be blank.

Not sure why.

The $1200 laptop deal is still overall better. Do you really think 32 GB vs 16 GB is going to make a big difference? Sure the 2070 SUPER will bring you to 3060 performance but is that worth $300 more?

Bottom-line. In my opinion, if the laptop was $1300 (or even $150 if you want to stretch things) then the jump would have made sense but at $1500 it does not.

Where would >144Hz be useful? The display isn't "better" in any other way.
For frame rates between FPS 144 and 240?

Oh, wow! This is a huge relative reduction from the $1200 deal for which the weight is 5.67 lbs. How did MSI achieve the reduction of a laptop that essentially the same structure as the $1200 deal ?

Separately, OP also needs to put SUPER in the title in quotes for emphasis.

Here's how I would rephrase the subject line:
GeForce RTX 2070 "SUPER" GPU (10%>2070) MSI Gaming Laptop Notebook - GE75 Raider - i7-10750H - 17.3" FHD 240Hz 3ms - 32GB RAM - 1TB HDD & 512GB SSD - Outriders Game $1499.99 @ COSTCO

I have no idea how they did this, but Costco listed it as 5.25lbs. I will take Costco's words for it. XD
