Why are we in 2025 still putting 16GB of RAM in Higher End Laptops, 32GB is really MIN at this point.

Good hardware but when are we ever going to get nicer screens for a $2k laptop?

This is at least not soldered so easy to upgrade but agreed, 16 GB on this kind of laptop is dumb. Then again a lot of 14" "gaming" laptops are still shipping with 16 soldered :/

to what level can we scaleup the memory? and how much would it cost to go with 64gb memory, incase we can go with 2 x 32s? or does it not accept such?

I don't get the negativity on the screen. No, it's not OLED; but it's a high refresh rate IPS panel with better than FHD resolution and decent color gamut. The only downside is it's not particularly bright, but who buys a gaming laptop to game in the sun?

Uh oh, how dare you talk sense on this forum? People will be coming for your head on that comment. Esp after the new superman movie, everyone would want to take their gaming laptop to the sun

They want 5k, 10k or 20k... That's why.... Anything under they consider trash, simple as that.

Yeah looks like it maxes at 2x 32s for 64 GBs. As for price, IDK, haven't been watching DDR5 memory much.

Agreed mostly. I mean I WANT 400-500 nits, not because I game outside, but because after a few years a 300 nit screen is putting out less than 200 nits, and becomes an issue in even mildly lit rooms for me personally but that doesn't mean this screen is bad lol. Seems great to me, and frankly something has to give to hit a 5070 ti and Ryzen 9 in this price range.
