While this is a great deal if you qualify for the AMEX statement card and you aren't looking to play (AAA) games in any kind of setting higher than Medium.

Also, I would def recommend upgrading to the panel with 300nits if you have no choice but to use the laptop screen. The one currently speced is not good. And if you have the budget, and plan to play any (AAA) game released in the last few years, you should be on the dual channel, so two sticks of ram should be used.

There are many "Known" issues with this laptop, one major one being the blue screen issue. When Lost Ark was officially released to US Players earlier this year two of my friends purchased this laptop to play it. They had numerous issues with both experiencing blue screens daily and having to exchange them multiple times, after lengthy Dell tech troubleshooting steps because there were no parts for their tech company that dell sourced to fix issues. There was also a weird thing with switching out the display graphics, where every time they wanted to make a change they had to boot into the Bios to make it.

There is an amazing YouTuber 'Jarrod'sTech' whose reviews are precise, and informative, and most of the videos I viewed are none biased, maybe that is why he has over 500K subscribers, with me being one of them, and they reviewed this machine.

I hope this helps others.

Happy Turkey Day!

I have a 3050 laptop and it's fine playing most games at mid-high settings.

A laptop with 3060 costs considerably more than this.

It's not crap. It's simply low end. Crap is the 5500.

It worked for me last time. You will have to add some fillers to get it back up to 600.

Sorry, just to double make sure, is RAM upgradable to 16gb ? I assume yes, but want to double check if someone has more experience.
Yes up to 64GB DDR5 4800. have one with 32GB.

I own this laptop
1. Screen is too dark
2. Laptop is too heavy
3. Battery life is poor
4. Charge port is not a C

But I think this laptop is a great deal at this price.
I upgraded the ram, hooked it up to a good monitor and leave it at home.
Carting this thing around on the reg is not going to happen.

I placed an order yesterday and saw these [imgur.com] 3 line items in my invoice. Just want to be even more SD, is there any way to waive the 3 items underneath to net it at the $499 unit price? I don't anticipate needing any of their service or activating the McAfee subscription.

Gaming laptop? 8gb memory, 4gb Nvidia? What am I missing?

This is a 6 pounder, going to be heavy lugging this around.

You can't. They come included with the purchase whether you want them or not.

Because SD does cashback so they do not allow competing cashback sites to be advertised.

Looks like it has a battery issue . It won't last for good period of time. Also over heating issues. Check the reviews before you buy.
Can you find any gaming laptop that has great battery life and doesn't have overheating issue?
