The RX6600M is kind of disappointing when compared to the RTX3060 and about 45% less powerful when compared to a RTX3070 for those wondering.
Keep in mind this has a 1080p screen. GPU should be enough for most games.
Dont matter when for the same price you can get a better 3060 or for another $150 you can get a drastically better 3070 and better CPU to boot. The Legion 5 deal right now for $999.

Good deal considering the price, but of course it will come down during the holidays .
Plus, with the recession coming. I see this laptop to be $500 in the future.

How would something like this do for a stock trader where GPU is not of the utmost importance?

For me I want a fast processer and at least 16GB memory, I mainly just do basic web stuff while running a stock charting program (eSignal), I tried out an 8GB i5 12th gen but the memory was almost maxed out with only minimal tabs open, I don't game, just want good performance, no lag when pulling up diff stock charts etc...

This MSI would be plenty fast for your needs. Nice large screen too.
