This was never discounted before this. So this is the lowest price so far.

The AMD version caps at RTX 4070. So if you don't need a 4080 or above with vapor chamber, probably wait? I'm sure others can chime in on whether they agree with that or not

Ohh, I didn't know that. I read that only 4080 and 4090 had the vapor chamber and the rest have a third, annoying fan. I don't really need something so powerful though but I do care about noise and value.

Maybe I worded it wrong but that's what I meant, sorry. So yes, only 4080 and above have vapor chamber.

Man that thing's been listed for months and still not available to buy. I'd get it if it were on sale for $2k.

At $2400 this is fairly compelling though to get the 4080 and vapor chamber.

It is available on the Asus website but return policy is a bit rough (15% restocking).

Yeah...no. Stay far away from that. A sale from Best Buy or nothing. They're charging $2100 for a 4060 lol.

This or the Alienware x16 R2 from the recent FP deal? That one was $100 cheaper and I was able to snag that deal. Just wondering if this is better. Thanks!

This is pretty much one of the best gaming laptops in this segment at least from a design & form factor perspective

I'd say yes. Check for dead pixels, run CPU/GPU stress tests, run a Windows battery report, run memtest86+.

You could also run a few common benchmarks, ensure the scores are roughly equivalent to those recorded in professional reviews of your laptop model.

You can do that in less than a day.
