Not much for reviews online. The specs are great but I'm curious about the cooling. Those specs may be throttled to death if there isn't sufficient cooling.

Great deal for the specs. I just don't like the keyboard layout and feel. Felt cramped.
There is an extra M.2 Slot available.

Looks like these things get HOT. I played around with one today and it felt fine but there wasn't any games on the demo to test the thermals.

The 15" actually has better cooling than the 17" because it's a lot thicker and the fans are larger. Just FYI.

I just bought this yesterday. They had stickers on the display for 200 off laptops over 1300 that they were supposed to take off from a old promotion. I asked the manager and he accommodated. So ask and you can get an extra $200 off

Yeah I saw that but with the included power brick it seems like there will be no room there at all. Seems fishy.

What are you saying here, that the included power brick wouldn't be able to accomodate the fully powered 175w 3080 ti?

Others have tried this at the westmont IL location. They've put sharpie on a bunch showing final price with $200 off. Oddly, the 3070ti is showing at $1399 after $200. It's a mess of bad salespeople here.

Battery life and fan suck. Fan keeps running a ton and battery life is less than 1.5 hours
