I got the refurbished version a couple of weeks ago for $1150 with a 2 year warranty instead of 1. It's a great laptop, the gpu outperforms a desktop 2070. The only thing I don't love is the keyboard as my old laptop had a mechanical one. But it runs great and if you want it new this is a good price.

I bought one last October refurb in prestine condition direct from Acer with warranty for $765. I use it weekly for bf2042 and works amazing with my HP reverb g2 version VR headset which I got on Black Friday sale $299 complete with controllers brand new.

not sure why you would want this when you can get the all AMD m17 r5 alienware for less money with more ram and better performance! Unless you are set on a 15inch laptop...

I grabbed this laptop back in january from a post here on SlickDeals, from the Acer ebay store, factory refurbished for $858 to my door with the AllState 2 year warranty. i7-12700H, 16gig DDR5 and full power 3060. It has been a GREAT laptop. A tad on the heavy side. When it arrived you couldnt tell it was a refuirb!

Basically, I want a desktop but for my work I need mobility. I am sitting on the sidelines until AMD releases their new gear. I'm hoping to see some price drops within the next few months. I am still on a 8th gen CPU and a 1050 LOL!

Show me that comparison from a reputable review site. I really want to see the testing where a mobile 3070ti reliably outperforms a desktop 2070. Also curious what site would even do that testing.
