Not from what I've seen the 12700H and a 3060 (not 50). This is about what I'd expect. Like the dell Inspiron 14+ MSRP is about this much and it has the inferior graphics card.

Does anyone know how durable this is? My last experience with acer was a decade ago and not good. I've mostly been looking at enterprise units, but the price on this is too good.

edit: I'm out. soldered ram only. I've gotta have at least one open ram slot for expansion.

Unless you need the 14" size, keep an eye out for the Helios 300. I picked it up on BF with all the same specs except it being 1080p and it's been great. Both RAM slots are upgradable. I was expecting to settle for JEDEC profile ram as usual per Acer, however, I upgraded using G.Skill 5200mhz as it has a 4800mhz JEDEC and was pleasantly surprised to see it running the 5200mhz XMP.

If they want to solder the RAM on a gaming laptop, they better be doing 32GB in dual channel.

Whenever you see LPDDRXX RAM, it is soldered w/o any slots for possible expansion. Frown
For a laptop geared towards gamer. this should at least had 32GB soldered RAM or regular non-LP RAM in dual channel with both slots up for upgrades. But Acer and Asus are hell bent soldering RAMs these days (and Lenovo/HP)
