Deal of the day. Thought this would be a good deal if you can get an open box.

Throttles compared to the 17". Too much powa.

Insane value. Thermals and build tech are cutting edge. I would have considered this over my x15r2 if I was buying today. Only wish it was the 240hz qhd vs this display but still an amazing deal.

Its a 110W for the 3070.
So the GPU is weaker than the M15 r4/r5/r6 which are 140/130/130.
CPU does run pretty hot at 100 C so you should definitely consider throttlestop and undervolting.

Might just wait for the X15 R2 to go on sale as the 12th gen is a significantly better upgrade than 11th gen and the GPU runs at the proper 130/140W.

What do you think about an open box for $1,138.99 ($1,234.38 after taxes), in satisfactory condition (not sure how used it is)?
