The bottom cover is easy to remove via 10 standard phillips head screws. It had a single 16 GB stick (sk Hynix) with an additional slot in which I added another identical 16 GB module for a total of 32 GB. There is also an easy to access additional NVNe slot available in which I added a 2 TB Samsung 990 Pro. The 1 TB SSD that came with the system was Samsung part number MZVL21T0HCLR-00BL2. The CPU and the GPU each have their own fan and there are four heat pipes. The included 1 TB SSD is a decent performer, 6.9k/5.1k transfer speeds.
Initially I was concerned about the 350 Nit brightness specification, but it turns out it's plenty bright. Unless you're outdoors on a sunny day with the sun at your back, there's no issues. The top is constructed of aluminum, the bottom plastic but it has an overall very solid feel.
RGB lighting on the keyboard is customizable or can be turned off. I am currently nearing the end of a six night hospital stay for foot surgery, so it's been my right arm here, I've used it several hours a day and am overall very happy with it.
There is one configurable profile for GPU overclocking. One thing I'll say is during long gaming sessions under AC power (in my case Cyberpunk 2077), the fans do work hard keeping that 4070 cool but both CPU and GPU temps are good. No issues playing games at 1440p with quality settings at high. The only bloatware that was pre-installed was McAfee and linkedin, both easily removed.
Lastly, if you qualify under the EDU/First Responder/Military discount program, you can get an additional 5% discount even after stacking the coupon codes, at least I did. They use ID ME for verification at checkout.

But also even though 140 watt TDP is never hit on the 4070 mobile it's not like it's a bad thing. The hardware runs much more efficiently at lower TDPs. Less heat. Less noise.

Also, it's back in stock.
Not a slick deal necessarily, but the Costco protection does help me sleep a bit better at night. How bad did I do here? Any bonus points for the Pros improved cooling?

These also have ridiculously horrible battery life, like every single other laptop since the ThinkPad W530 which was rated for 24 hours with the snap on battery.
If you need a gaming laptop as a desktop replacement with some usage unplugged for less than a workday when performance doesn't matter, get this. If you need actual unplugged performance, or actual battery life, I'm afraid you could spend anywhere between $1,000 and $100,000, and anything you get that isn't a MacBook would suck.
Hopefully Qualcomm fixes this shortly and the market moved away from Windows an x86 Which are horrible for gaming anyway, besides the unfortunate fact that most games are made for the absolute worst ecosystem possible for gaming.
