The raider is their top of the line under the stealth, right? This seems like a great deal for a creator focused laptop. Sure this is technically a gaming laptop but the 3060 won't really cut it for 4k so while this can game, I'm not sure it's the best fit as a dedicated gamer.

You don't need to game in 4K to be a gamer...

Right but a "gamer" would be better off with a 144hz or better display. I was just implying that this is more of a creator focused laptop. That appeals to me more actually as I have been spending way more time video and photo editing these days.

I love my OLED 4k Dell laptop. OLED is only 60hz but because of instantaneous pixel switching it feels like a much higher refresh monitor. Just run games at 1080p turn on hdr and enjoy one of the best ox gaming experiences possible.

Perfect for that and the 4k oled will make everything look amazing. Not 100% sure on the color accuracy of the display though so that's something you'll want to double check if you are into that sort of thing.

No, it is not comparable with Stealth series which is their Thin & Light gaming laptop with lower wattage GPU, mostly limited to 105W.
Raider GE66 is their high end premium high powered gaming 15.6" laptop with maximum CPU and GPU power. This is not thin & light, has enough cooling space inside it and very beefy cooling solution to provide maximum gaming performance.

I purchased this, and everything about it seems good, except that the screen has a really bad rainbowing effect even slightly off angle with light colors. Is anyone else experiencing this? Curious if I should try a replacement.
