I guess I'm not too concerned with color accuracy, but rendering speed would be somewhat important.
Ok. In that case, this as well as several earlier deals that the good Dr mentioned would be suitable.

Generally speaking, haven't seen color accurate/graded screens at this price. CPU/GPU yes, screens no.

It's been this price for months now and it's been as low as $899 and $989 in the past.
In fairness I did search Slickdeals prior to posting and maybe I missed it, but I did not see the same model with the same specs for lower in the last several months. I saw 4060 variants and 16gb/500gb ssd at the price points you posted but not 4070s nor 32gb/1tb.

Battery life won't be the best when not gaming.

If you plan on using an external monitor anyway then might as well save $200 and get the HP Victus currently on sale : https://slickdeals.net/f/18190831-hp-victus-laptop-16-1-fhd-144hz-ryzen-7-8845hs-rtx-4070-16gb-ddr5-512gb-ssd-900-free-shipping?src=category_page
Also, there was an Acer Nitro on sale with 4070 and QHD display just a few days ago that was cheaper than this. Considering all that and the fact this has been cheaper before, I wouldn't call this that good of a deal.
Can you share the link for Acer Nitro deal?

If this wasn't 5+lbs, I'd be all over it for my college-bound kid.

I'm looking for a touch screen, with good battery life, and can handle Fortnite and rocket league. Will also be used for a small business. I'd like to future proof a bit too. Hoping to be less than 1k

Happen to come across any deals like this or can you give some advice on what to look for most?

Just a heads-up. This laptop has a 16:9 screen ratio which is a little smaller (shorter) than the 16:10 ratio that most of the other 16" laptops use.

This same price, even after tariffs is a win.

Genuinely asking, I see the site is like littered with gaming laptops currently. How come desktops barely go on sale anymore? Is it over?

There are widespread reports of a serious flaw with the Omen 16, but I don't know if it has been fixed by now. See https://www.reddit.com/r/HPOmen/c...has_fatal/
