For 150 dollars more you can double the ram and memory and get 11th gen.

Is this post really a great deal? If it is then I might pull the trigger on this instead...

If you have a micro center in town, $999 is a better choice. i7 vs i5, much better.

Good deal. I like it for what it is - cheapest rtx 3060 gaming laptop to be had for <$900 new...

With a few tweaks, most of it's cons are mitigated:
Pop in another 8gb ram, umdervolt it a tad, and limit the turbo levels. Then it'll plays most recent titles at mid to high graphics settings fine and won't get too hot/thermally throttle at all.

Yes, that Microcenter deal is in-store only and most people don't live anywhere near a microcenter so it's not even an option.

Yikes. I was interested until I saw this. I'm running 120w on my mobile 2060 and don't want to give it up for very little performance increase.

If this is true... That's the biggest limiting factor in this deal.
