What level of deal is this actually? Trying to get back into pc gaming, but it's been so long I don't know much about current specs. Seems like a decent deal except for the low ram, which I assume will cost hundreds to upgrade, right? Fair assessment?

edit: wait, is it true that it won't be able to do VR because it only has one HDMI?

I have last year's iteration of this laptop. Typing from it now. It runs incredibly hot, I have the CPU scaled down to 80% and the fans cranked and it is warm and loud as fark. The sparebar barely works, and I usually game with a controller. like 6 months in, I had to absolutely just hammer the spacebar to make it work right. I've cleaned it, the design just sucks.

TBC, my katana is so shitty that I found this thread when trying to replace it only a year later.
