  1. Check this AAA Dell 10% off coupon: https://www.dell.com/en-us/member/lp/aaa
  2. Goto sales page, choose this deal: https://deals.dell.com/en-us/memb...etail/d07z add to cart. or you can choose variety of different game laptops: https://deals.dell.com/en-us/memb...-ascending
  3. If you have Dell Financial account or you can get one with credit approval same day. there is another 5% off on top of the price using coupon: DPA5. other than 12 months interest free, there is 3% more dell rewards.
My reason to recommend this sku:
  • Dell fixed mux switch and cuda cores on 3070, TGP boosted to 130w with BIOS update.
  • RTX 3070 is better to use with QHD screen, G-sync and Advanced Optimus gives you more battery life on the go w/o switch Mux switch to reboot.
  • QHD screen come w/ IR camera support windows hello, it have variety of usage not only for login authentication.
  • 1TB ssd and 16G DDR both are swappable, x15 or m15 r4 before can't swap memory.
  • Intel 11/12 gen have better performance in 1080p games but Ryzen is almost a match for QHD game.
Total will be $1424.42 plus 6% Dell rewards.
If you don't use Dell Financial, Dell rewards is reduced to 3%, and 5% discount also forfeit. but you can use Amex offers and split payment if you have.

ps1: I can't utilize the next day free shipping, it add $48 on total price, check your final price carefully.

ps2: don't buy that 1080p 3070 version [dell.com] for face value of $100 saving, that one doesn't have windows hello support and SSD is half the size.

ps3: if you absolutely want a 1080p screen check that11800h version [dell.com] for it have better 360hz screen w/ advanced optimus and G-sync, plus it also have mechanic per key RGB keyboard. And intel 11gen is better in performance in most games on 1080p.

I wrote up a comparison between the asus zephrus, alienware and the legion 5 pro in the zephrus sale thread. (Sourced from several good review sites):

https://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=153467308&postcount=72

The big problem with the zephrus and the alienware is their slimmer, lest robust chasis is bad thermals *AVERAGING* 97 or 100C in demanding games and hitting thermal limit/throttling, at least with cpu boost clocks on.

Quote from bryggz :
It was worth a shot. Personally I think if you can't get it lower than $1,424 then it might be worth waiting. Dell gives some steep discounts if you can line up some 10%+ cash back specials along with sales, financing specials (I finance with them all the time for zero-interest payments and bigger discounts) as well as AMEX cashback promos. That is, unless you don't feel like waiting any more. Personally I got a 3060 laptop with Dell for ~$950 and I've been really happy with it.
Thanks for sharing though, didn't even know it was a thing

I got this one for $1234 but it's back ordered until end of April.
https://slickdeals.net/f/15581524-alienware-m15-r4-rtx-3070-16gb-w-1-yr-premium-1322-99

I know the one in this thread has a better monitor / newer CPU / and 0.5 tb more ssd... But is it worth almost $200 more? Or should I wait for mine?

10% code from AAA and 50OFF699 didn't stack for me. 10% code would overwrite the other one. How did you get them to stack?

Thanks OP. I placed an order. Here's my breakdown:

$1699
-$30 (Member Pricing)
-$170 (10% AAA code)
-$75 (DPA 5%)
$105 (Tax)
-$142 (10% CB)
-$120 (Amex Offer)
-$46 (Chase Offer)

G14 only have a 60w 3060, that's the weakest of all, however this one have a 130w 3070 about 30-40% better.

No, not worth it. I'd upgrade mine in 2-3 years

That's great discount, too bad I recently found that if I applied Dell rewards. I can't split payment between DPA and another credit card.

Mine already arrived yesterday, it's build great and came w/ Samsung vram, only thing I don't like the the cpu is really hot, like 20% more hot than Intel counterparts and there is no way to undervolt it without sacrifice performance.

Yeah I had $136 in rewards I couldn't use on this transaction. Will maybe use it on a NVME drive.

Nice score on the Samsung vram. The Intel based R6 is only about $50 more and has TB4.

Does b fru Cashback work with membership pricing? I thought that if you log into your dell preferred (or whatever they call it) account, that you lose Cashback..

I've received CB using the member preferred pricing through R10 and TCB before. This is my first time using BFG for Dell however it's already tracked my transaction. I believe as long as you go through dell.com and not through a specific member/corp portal it should be fine. I guess I'll find out in 2-3 months...

Great choice, 11800H is a great processor and better every way to Ryzen 5800h, the only reason I choose Ryzen 5800h is because it came with Samsung vram confirmed. please share your experience about the manufacture of the vram.
