Unoptimized games and unofficial mods are questing up to 21 gb these days but so far it's been like hogwarts legacy and last of us part 1.

We keep upgrading they going to keep taking advantage

Does anyone know why all LPDDR5X laptops can't be upgraded? In the same line, they also don't sell LPDDR5X SODIMMs, that I know of.
LPDDR means it's soldiered to the motherboard.

I see it refurbished for $999, but only third party seller new.
Edit: Still probably a deal at $999 refurbished from Acer.

If you get a refurb directly from Acer on eBay it comes with a 2 year Square Trade warranty.

It's fast. Running warhammer 3 on ultra TSAA x16 fully maxed with 70 fps
Average in the madness benchmark.

Great form factor and have had to turn display brightness down.

Unoptimized console ports is what my ps5 is for. Will prob get a pro if they ever do a decent trade in deal. Willing to spend $200+ to refresh the warrant.

Might pull the disc drive off my slim and sell it private. Paid $400 clearence for Spider-Man 2 slim bundle at staples

Metal but thin. It's supposed to be in the premium category but at the low end. It's got a $1,800 list but sold for $1600 from Sept 2024 on release til March when it dropped to $1,000 but only on Walmart.

It's 110W listed but confirmed 125W boost. Up there with large offerings. Perhaps the CPU lowers the total thermal envelope. I'm not worried about the 16 GB but the I7 155H gives pause.

The ram is premium too, It's at the 6400 mbps max LPDDR5X which outperforms most DDR5 sticks in gaming laptops around this price. Being LPDDR5X it can actually hit 8500 mbps with the right profile.

I just can't find anything else in this range with a small form factor, decent monitor with 400+ nits, decent/premium build and good hardware. I was fine with the 4060 but at $999.

Oh and $89 three year, $109 four year. Not sure if I'll do that. It's Allstate
since it's LPDDR5X, the RAM is not upgradeable?

It is not. Not easily. You can probably get the 32gn sodimm and have someone solder it but not worth it likley.

Yeah Walmart is stupid with their 'in-stock' alerts. They alert you even when it's 3rd party seller which blows. I want to be alerted when Walmart itself has it in stock.

Free 2 year warranty vs 1 new. Not a terrible deal itself.

Same brand warranty with new at Walmart was $89 for 3 years. Covers spills and drops
