Yes, AMD Advantage is great, and the 6850M XT should be an excellent performer, but:
* 6850M XT does not support DLSS
* I personally do not care for the Alienware bling
* 4K panel on a laptop, even with a powerful GPU like the 6850M XT, is not great for gaming in my opinion. You have to either game at 4K with bad performance, or run your games at a lower resolution, which can look weird. 2560x1600 with a 16:10 aspect ratio, paired with a fairly powerful GPU like a 150W 3070ti is a sweet spot.
* m17 has a 17 inch panel, but it's a 16:9 aspect ratio compared to the Legion 5 Pro's 16:10.
* Build quality and design on the Legion 5 Pro will be better in my personal opinion. I recently returned an M15 R7, and the Legion 5 Pro is better in this area. Excellent cooling design and layout with the internals.
* Are you paying extra for a 32GB RAM bump you don't need? If you're gaming, multitasking, coding, 16GB of fast DDR5 should be enough. Not saying you don't need 32GB, just throwing that out there.
* Legion 5 Pro is not exactly thin and light, but it probably looks like an Ultrabook compared to the m17.
Again, these are mostly personal opinions. $2000 was a good price for the Alienware, but you're not getting night and day performance compared to the Legion 5 Pro.
At $1399, you could throw another roughly $200 into the Legion and get a 2TB SK Hynix P41 NVME drive. That would bring you up to 3TB of super fast storage, and you would still have $400 left over for a Switch OLED + game.

Buying for my son in the Space Force. Wants to be able to game with friends and family back home. This should cover him for awhile right? It's either this or buy 3 cheaper "gaming" laptops in the next 3-4 years?
