115W max-q
It is far superior from Max-Q and you should know that there is nothing called Max-Q and Max-P in RTX 3000 series cards but the Laptop manufacturers can set anything in between a lowest and highest value.. That Post clearly shows that you have no idea about the GPU TGP in current generation
115W + 15W (130W Max) is basically the 2nd most powerful implementation of RTX 3070 with the maximum is 125W + 15W (140W Max). So, it is just 10W lower than the most powerful implementation.

Slower Processor and soldered 16GB Ram which you can't upgrade.

Got a link? The r4 is regarded as a better chassis by most.

Can you compare the R4 to R6 Chassis?

I'm on mobile but not sure if it will work https://deals.dell.com/en-us/productdetail/cgtv

If it doesn't work click through the OP deal and click on top where it says gaming deals then scroll down a ways

Base price is 1529 and OP coupon works on it

I'm still trying to figure out why the older r4 model would be better than this newer one. This one has the newer processor and has the ability to add ram. What am I missing?

All nvidia laptops are max-Q now, it's a feature set not a power threshold.

Because they introduced X15 and X17 in 2021 which is supposed to be their best performing and costlier platform. That's the reason, the successor of R4, m15 R5 and R6, got reduced performance, mainly due to lower wattage GPU and slightly inferior cooling. The main reason was to promote the X series.
