Good near me, this is challenging. I had a 30% cashback on Best Buy too taking another $250 off. Gotta redeem in gift cards. C1S.

Sucks about the sceeen tho. I had a Walmart @ 18% with $1000 max I lost out on.

I tried looking it up but kept finding people were saying the intel CPU's throttle. Does the Ryzen 9 also throttle or is it throttling the GPU?

This was $100 cheaper not too long ago: https://slickdeals.net/f/18698506-asus-rog-strix-g16-open-boxes-16-fhd-165hz-ryzen-9-8940hx-rtx-5070-ti-16gb-ddr5-1tb-ssd-1131-99?src=SDSearchv3&attrsrc=Thread%3AExpired%3ATrue%7CSearch%3AType%3Anormal%7CSearch%3ASort%3Arecent%7CSearch%3AHideExpired%3Afalse&peid=910ef1a2-28fb-4887-82b4-bb879154ab28
Heading into BF and holiday season, these should be getting cheaper, not expensive, and they would be. No reason to buy an open box at a higher price.

16gb LPDDR? Meaning not upgradable? This is 2025... 16gb may as well be 6.... Why would they do this?

Nowhere does it say LPDDR. This has SODIMM RAM and is upgradeable.

As already stated and confirmed that it's not LPDDR5 and is upgradeable. The OP never posts the complete specs but the link I've given above contains it and you can check it there.
