I'm struggling finding a use case with such a low threshold with non-upgradable 16gb of ram. Might struggle in some AAA gaming. Not optimal for content creation but still works. It's not that you won't be able to play any AAA games or do content creation , but at these specs, I don't know why they wouldn't make 32gb of soldered ram the standard. If it were upgradable, that's a different story. Am I wrong here?
Because Apple made it socially acceptable/mandatory for other manufacturers to skimp on memory & RAM in favor of planned obsolescence.

We collectively encouraged it by paying $1000 for a 8GB Ram/256GB SSD MacBook Air, or $1000+ 8GB/128GB iPhone Pro. Every product purchase is a "vote" in support of the parent company. Vote consciously.
Acer refurbished is top of the line!! Very happy with my 4090 Helios laptop. Came with a 2 year warranty

is this good enough to play the COD black ops 3 or 6/ or Last of us pt 2 without any lag?

Most likely. But probably would need to keep your settings to medium/low with freesync off.

Glad I read the comments. I almost bought it because I've bought lots of Acers and they were all RAM upgradable. Took it for granted.

Yes, you're wrong-ish. 32gb would be nice, but 16 is still very sufficient for the vast majority of use.

Would be very hard pressed to find a 32gb ram and 4070 laptop for this price. I'm finding with laptops, there will always be some tradeoff unless you ignore price

16 will be fine for as long as this video card can run. Especially on the native screen

Unless your running unoptimized garbage programs or heavily(poorly) modded games with texture packs.

So the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 Laptop: 16" 165Hz, i7-13620H is still a better deal?
I ordered it and another stick of 32GB RAM ($53)

CPU on that one is one gen behind and it has Thunderbolt (could charge up to 100watts). Don't care about the 1080pm LCD res as it will docked to 5.2k ultrawide monitor.

I'd then wait for that bb ryzen 7 and Rtx 4070 for $899 to come back if display or size don't matter

Can't be that hard to desolder the 16gb and replace it. Find a kid that can do micro soldering. There are storefronts all over Shenzhen that do this, even upgrade storage inside iPhones in less than an hour.
Unfortunately we don't live in Shenzhen

sweet spot is 32gb ram, 4070, 1Tb, intel i9 or equivalent AMD, less than 4lbs

Decent price but I still prefer the triton 14 at the same price for a more powerful 4070, miniled display and more compact and elegant design all around.
can you send the link?

I've had both the HP Victus and this Acer and here's my opinion:

The screen on the HP victus (I'm assuming that's what you're talking about) is absolute trash. Unless you're only playing docked to a monitor it's not worth getting a laptop with such a underwhelming display. The display on this Acer is not very bright but the colors are fantastic and the motion clarity is great.

The Acer has around double the battery life.

The keyboard on the Acer is a little better.

The HP doesn't advanced Optimus or Gsync.

The build quality overall is better on the Acer.

The HP does have upgradable ram but at this price (in the case of gaming) with a mobile 4070 you really don't NEED more than 16gb.

In my opinion this acer is better than the hp victus in almost every way for gaming except for the upgradable ram.
