Can't you get a 5080 laptop for roughly the same price soon?

Depends on whether manufacturers will freeze shipments to the US

where else are the shipments going to go? most countries arent brainless consumers and companies need to make their money.

No, you can't, esp on a 17". Be realistic.

Agreed. Shipping is also super slow, even if you pay for the fastest option.

This was just in stock last week for a good 48hrs. Hopefully there will be more stock soon.

Mm mini led. If I'm spending. I'm getting this with the mini led and 5080. The i7 to i9 isn't a big deal for gaming imo

Edit: I was seeing the 6k laptop. Still I'd get the 5080 over the 17 4080

Just wanted to say thank you for this; I randomly checked it again just after midnight and it was in stock so I ordered. Out of stock again by the morning. For others looking, I did not get a back in stock notification from MSI even though I signed up, so may be worth checking in periodically. Really excited about this, upgrading from a ~5 year old Legion 7i with a 2080 super. The MSI doesn't look as sexy as the Lenovo, but this just sits on my desk 99% of the time docked with an external Alienware OLED and keyboard/mouse so should be fine. Thank you again!

Happy to hear you snagged one. I saw it in stock too but hesitated. This is because it recently got listed at Microcenter, albeit sold out. I'm holding out to grab one the with a 5% MC discount. Hopefully the curse of a slickdealer doesn't burn me this time. haha. Prices are so volatile these days, so I question whether this price will hold or increase.
