Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

The specs seem nice, however I'd like to mention to anyone who hasn't owned Gigabyte laptops before:

The gigabyte laptop I have is hands down the most annoying laptop I've ever owned. The drivers are horse s#!t and buggy, to the point where it will literally BSOD mid-game if I have the fan control drivers installed. If I don't have the control drivers installed the fans are noisy as hell and never turn off. Lose lose scenario.

I've had to hack together modified graphics drivers and heavily modify the thermal chart in ThrottleStop which took HOURS just so the machine ran cool enough to game long term.

All in all. I would NOT recommend this brand unless someone can verify they've fixed these issues in the current gen laptops. And I have no reason to believe they have as I've seen the same issues reported on all models since my laptop the 15x AERO came out

I've not had a single issue with my 6 Gigabyte laptops. Use them to mine so bring on the hate, but this has not been my experience at all. They've been reliable as hell.

Price has been reduced to $1699 which I think is a great deal for a 130W RTX 3080 laptop with Gen 4 SSD and 32GB DDR4 memory.

I have the aero 15x and the drivers and software were super annoying, but I never got any blue screens or anything. For me the worst thing was the webcam placement. But it wasn't so bad to stop me from buying the aero 15 OLED from Best Buy when it was 1249.

Only 3 hours left. Meh, not enough time to consider, but I agree, Good price for the specs.
Do you think this or legion 7 from a week ago in terms of price/performance?
