*****not this 5070 mobile gpu(8gb)
you can find a few great 4080 laptops with good cooling (and undervolting if you want to make it even better)
for older non aaa 3d games, sure it's perfect actually, but not more modern games (not that they are more fun just more gpu intensive).

Looking at the pictures, there appears to be a USB-A & USB-C on the right side and 2 USB-A's on the left side.
2 questions: can you upgrade RAM? what are the USB ports?
I asked the automated answer bot about the RaM....it said: "According to the item page, the maximum RAM supported is 64 GB.

Edit: Wait this is a MSI laptop, so the hinges issue is a big con for buyer.
Two serious questions:
1. Is it worth paying the price for a 5070 8gb vs 5060 8gb? Everything I read says if it's not 12gb-16gb video RAM you will have issues so does 5060 vs 5070 really matter unless you jump to a 5070 ti?
2. I have heard MSI has a lot of issues to include heat, is there any truth to this? Everyone always recommends Lenovo Legion or ASUS.

Sure you won't be running the new Doom game at 200fps in 4k on Ultra but you definitely won't have "issues".
