I've been using this for the last few months. Get this if you care more for the 4k oled screen for content creation or viewing and not about a high refresh rate gaming. I don't really play fps games, so I rather have my games look pretty and stuck at boring 60hz. This does not have a mux either, so there would be little bit less performance due to optimus. You can get hdr movies to work on windows from your plex library if using kodi+plex addon.

Make sure you get the latest control center software from gigabyte. That fixes an issue where the battery drains extremely fast if using non-gigabyte nvidia drivers. Use msi afterburner to do a custom frequency/voltage curve on the gpu. You can undervolt your gpu significantly while maintaining pretty high core clocks. This decreases gpu temps drastically. Msi afterburner also drains battery life quickly, so I manually run it only when gaming.

If you are an advanced user, you can get the bios unlocked at winraid forums. This will allow you to use throttlestop to undervolt and even overclock the cpu, which helps drastically as well. Liquid metal also helps a lot with temps, but will require at least one re-application down the road due to liquid metal bonding with the copper heatsink surface.

There's nothing in OLED that limit it to 60. All flagship phones, for example, have Samsung OLED displays that can run at 120Hz

Pretty effing good deal. About what I paid for my Razer Blade OLED in June but a generation behind this (i7-10600 + RTX 2070)

Hmmm....
Are you editing or gaming?

Can anyone speak on this?

I was more looking for something with a 2k screen and a 3070, but is this a decent deal considering the 4k screen and a 3060?
Helps if you mention your intended use. I'm guessing you want to play games. With DLSS this would be barely OK at best when playing games at 4k. This seems to really be for content creation.

wondering the same thing. I bought my daughter the MSI Katana @ Costco for 1,110 as a gaming gift. Also upgraded the ram and added extra NVMe. Wondering how this compares.

I don't see how a 3060 MaxQ will run a 4k display at anything resembling acceptable performance levels.

This seems like a very good deal. How does this compare to the Lenovo Legion 5 (AMD 16")? I almost pulled the trigger on the deal that was posted there a few days back. This one seems to be cheaper with a better screen

Someone knows the Hz in this screen ?
With OLED you won't get motion blur. I play Overwatch on a XPS 7590 with the same screen and it is great.
