I see a lot of bad reviews about this model. People complaining about bios, problem with hibernation, gpu throttling and also about power consumption while laptop is charging. Good deal but dangerous to buy because of problems people described...

Well this laptop was $50 cheaper about a month ago at $1099.99. So probably a good chance it at least goes to that price again closer to BF, or even cheaper maybe.

And how is Gigabyte's support in the US? I read it's not so great, like MSI's.

Judging by reviews support won't resolve your problems. I wanted to buy this laptop but because of reviews (too many issues might occur) I've decided not to get it. As I wrote before the most common problem is bad bios update which cause hibernation issue or gpu throttling issue (depends of bios version). And as an owner of gigabyte g5 md (rtx 3050ti) I would say gigabyte doesn't care much about their software updates or fixes...

I wouldn't buy a Laptop now if they were 50% off. Meteor Lake will be revolutionary at 5nm from Intel 20% higher clocks at same power. On the Mac side Apples delayed M2 will be 3nm and just be unstoppable.

Uh ... We're PC gamers familiar with components and specs. We don't buy into Apple wiz bang bs sales tactics. You're in the wrong forum for that Apple gab.
We're looking at specifically a laptop with a powerhouse GPU. Don't bring the "a" word here

It's Intel so crap battery life. No thanks.
It is a gaming laptop.. is like complaining about gas mileage on a sports car lol. Or you don't like a brand on here or product? So you gotta let everyone know that you hate intel but failed to give us any explanations?

The 3070 card is a solid card over the other lower end RTX cards. Thought I would pass this deal along.

what's always interest me is that how could regular laptop manufactures like gigabyte (or any big brand name) can give you a full i7 + 3070 laptop for about 1100 dollars and be sold via B&M store like bestbuy.

then you got online only companies like minsforum that doesn't have to profit share with any BM stores, and the best they can do for half a 3070 laptop (basically a laptop without battery, screen, keyboard...) is 1100 USD....

if any of the big brand name company are any serious about pushing SFF machines, there will be no market left for off brands like minisorum

Interestingly the acer predator 300 at $999 will be faster for gaming despite having a lesser gpu thanks to the higher wattage , better cooling and faster memory.

$1050 now. Best Buy seems to have dropped a few laptops by $100 in the last 24 hours
