Not much of a deal this was listed for 999.99 when amazon first posted it then inflated price to 1049.99. I would wait till it drops lower.

It should drop to $900 during black Friday. I'm looking for the same with RTX 3060 for about $1000 range. It may not come down to $1K point however I'm hopeful that supply will increase in coming months.

May be a good idea to keep an eye for the Dell G15 with 165Hz IPS Screen, 5800H and RTX 3060. I posted it couple of times at $1080, before the BIOS upgrade which enabled the MUX switch. Now, it is over $1300 but it may come down to 1K to 1.1 K range.

Gpu prices should drop next year. Production increases and shortages subside. But who wants to wait?

Thanks. Looks like a very good configuration. Will be on a look out for a decent price. Right now it seems to be pretty high. Thanks

If I'm not a gamer and just use my computer for work/watching movies, is there a point to buying something like this?

Nope. This is way overkill in CPU performance and completely useless overkill GPU for general use. You would be well suited for a $600-$800 laptop, depending on what your desires are, like you can get an OLED screen laptop in that range, a thin and light ultrabook, a thinkpad with a great keyboard, a 17" screen if you dont really plan to move it, etc.

I mean it's nice to have a GPU and have some extra oomph for hardware accelerated browsing and such…but you'll pay in battery life. I believe this has hybrid mode where you can use the included APU on the 5800h. My Legion 5 Pro has the same setup but unsurprisingly still gets dogsh*t battery life ~3hrs with low everything.

I've read quite a few reviews that mentioned their units coming with a realtek wifi chip instead of the intel advertised. They also reported poor wifi performance with the realtek chip.

Does anyone know if the one OP posted actually comes with an intel wifi chip?
