I got excited there, then realised the deal above is for the Aero 5. (sigh)

The aero 16 is cited for $1699.00 with an additional $50 promo

Good deal nonetheless for anyone considering the Aero 5

True, deal title and description are wrong, since Aero 5 is a regular 15.6-inch machine and not 16 inches like the Aero 16.

Better design and display. Moreover, for my personal use the extra thunderbolt 4 port helps

All the reviews and feedback from different sites illustrate the shortcomings of the Gigabyte Aero 17 & 16. Their RTX 3070ti and 3080ti's are essentially 30 watts underpowered compared to the Aero 5. Plus their material construction is either not well insulated or the vapor chambers need an overhaul, or both because they are reported to run so hot they cannot rest on the lap as a "laptop." Considering Raptor Lake is around the corner, the Aero 17 is going to need a very compelling price break to get interest between now and Black Friday. As of now, the only thing they have going for them is an i9 and a calibrated 120hz screen.

I still have not received the MIR from my Gigabyte laptop that I purchased back in March. Just be aware they are sitting on your money for quite some time.

Very easy to NVFlash these with higher wattage ROMs if you want to.

There you go, this is for the silver Aero models but I'm sure it should be pretty similar.

Fix the description, it's $1,299 after rebate, not $1,399.

Looks like they're all for 3070ti to boost wattage, but not the 3080ti?
