Anyone got an experience with one of these? There are numerous reports online of these units self bricking. People blame the crappy liquid metal mix that HP uses that seeps into the mainboard but those that replaced the TIM still had their unite die. So I don't know

I don't have this specific model. I have a Ryzen based variant with a 5070. I've had it for a little over 6 months I think? Maybe a longer (time is a mystery). But I've had no issues with it, solid travel gaming machine.

Thanks for the info, is it the "Max" version as well? I think they use the liquid metal mix in the 5080/5090 versions, I can be completely wrong though

Got my son the 5070 version of this same laptop for Christmas and it's been a beast so far. They packed dual cooling fans into it so I wonder if these reports were due to covering the vent holes?

Maybe not a bad idea to get protection plan or something given the fact that the unit is an open box condition. Just putting it out there

Best buy but they have two types of plans. I believe I have total tech but they do have a stand alone one. heard about third party like upsie but never seen any reviews about them
