Still a great deal if yours works
You still have change ram by buying a ram kit if you want 100% uber fps.. as this ram has slow secondary timings ( also installed on other asus or lenovo laptops ) .
The cost of ram and this sale, with doing your thermal paste is not to bad for what you get. The benchmarks on youtube videos are very high.. 3070 - 3080 gpu speed.
Sometimes you can get a Liquid Metal application on these that are ' ok '.. but sometimes ( as bad reviews said ) it is extreme. The application of Liquid Metal should be basically one small ball bearing, applied by the black Q-Tip in the kit, rubbed back and forth about 20 times in one spot until the LM adhears into the metal forming a mirror finish. The screenshot of the customer reviews show a MASSIVE over ammount put on the two chips.
The one drop applied eventually gets spread across the chip forming a mirror finish.. and does not blob like in the photos seen in the customer reviews at the BestBuy review on this laptop.

Although, there is a huge issue with these that the Liquid metals seeps through and kills the GPU. So make sure to check GPU detection and run some stress tests.

I really wanted a 17.3" with qhd but theyre mostly $2200 or more. Not gonna pay $700 more for an extra 1.7 inches and better ram off the bat.
