Even then the brightness is only the secondary concern. The colors on this thing is also complete trash. 45% NTSC is absolutely horrible and the 35ms response time is probably the tr+tf time which isn't the worst but isn't great. IIRC, 35ms translates to around 8ms using GTG standard. This is still slower than most other panels of this price range.
Compare this to the 300 nit screen with 100% NTSC rating and 13ms response time. Instead of making this screen standard, they picked a really crappy panel possible to put on a gaming laptop.
And finally, Dell has the gall to increase the price of the laptop with the better screen by 3-4 hundred.
To those thinking about buying this laptop because it has good specs, please reconsider. I bought a Inspiron 7000 that had the 60hz version of this screen and the display was downright terrible. And all I used it for was to do basic coding and browsing. Now imagine buying the same screen but to play games on. I would wait for a laptop with a better screen.

I'm sure there is a market for a laptop like this. Like I said the actual computer specs on this laptop is pretty damn good. But I personally wouldnt compromise that much on a really bad screen. Even If it had a mediocre screen I would TU the deal.
But hey to each their own.
It's not on sale so you aren't combining discounts, but I kind of agree that the one component you should never compromise on with a laptop is the screen.

Stop lying, the instructions were pretty damn simple and I got my code but it did not work.

I'm not 100% sure but there's a video on YouTube showing an unused m.2 slot that can take another drive.
I ordered that exact setup on 4/17 and it arrived on 5/12, it came from china in 5 days via FedEx. For the $$ it's a hell of a machine. This deal looks very good for the price as well.
Grab a couple for mining while you can. They will easily pay themselves within a few months.
How would this get 49mh on 90 watts? most laptop 3060 with less than 90 watts are around 34mh. Would think it would top out at maybe 36-37mh even with overclock - which is always a bit hit or miss on laptop anyway.
