The fact that you have to wait for at least a few weeks if not more would be my only hesitation.
The article you linked was for super cheap laptops, the kit they used in my EVOO from a year or two ago was a very good Tongfeng chasis with a 9th gen Intel and a 1660TI.

And I did just that.
Specs don't matter much if it's going to throttle and cripple the performance.
I had an order for the Dell Alienware M15 Ryzen 5800H and 3060 for $1,2xx out the door after tax, 12% coupon, and 15% cashback but ultimately cancelled it due reviews of overheating and throttling.
From member's experience, this EVOO most likely will suffer from noise and heat issue as well. An 8 core Ryzen 4800h with a 2060 is a lot of heat to handle. With that said, $899 for these type of specs is a solid deal.
Personally, I'm waiting for the Lenovo 5 Pro, expecting a US release soon. Price isn't going to be anywhere near this good but from all the reviews, it's a solid laptop with amazing cooling, essentially allowing it to operate without throttling. It's one of the few laptop that can handle an 8 core Ryzen and a full power Nvidia RTX without choking on heat throttling.

this laptop has 1 day ship/next day delivery which was great for me. i needed a new laptop and wanted something nice to get my taxes done with.

The different including sales tax was $102.xx, so it unfortunately was too much to ignore and let slide given I had just ordered it.

Having owned Alienware, Omens, and Zephyrus laptops, this chassis is great.
It's a tongfang alloy chassis (maingear/eluktronics/gateway) that are pretty highly rated and I agree.
The one downside is that the keyboard is weird. I wish they left off the number pad since there is no enter key. I'd rather have a centered keyboard.
This is basically a version of the gateway creator laptop that was $700 (at its lowest price) but with $100 worth of ssd and ram upgrades (for diy people) and a better processor that also keeps the unit cooler. Killer deal IMO.

If I had to say, maybe the omen. But I'm not sure there is a direct comparison because the size of this chassis.
All the "smaller/slimmer" laptops like the g14/g15 I've had cooling issues with. Even though I own this computer (intel processor tho), I just purchased a 3060 g14 and 4 days later it completely died mid game and wouldn't turn on after it overheated.
My Alienware and omen were much larger, but the omen quality was probably the most comparable. Alienware is bit plastiky. Yeah this laptop gets noisy, but it's a tight package and I can run it all the way up without issues.
In summary I guess it's kinda like the omen build quality in the g15 sizing if that makes sense. But the omen chassis was just a bit better.
