Specs look good for the price. Is this a good gaming laptop? GPU gimped?

$100 cheaper than it was a few weeks back.

I bought one and if it didn't have fan issues (fan was scraping something) I probably would have kept it. I was not a fan of the screen at all though, it looked really dull to me. The keyboard felt a little flimsy, but wasn't horrible. I could have dealt with that. Everyone complains the 5070 is crippled by 8GB, but it played the few games for the few minutes I tried (before the fan made horrible noises) just fine. It's a "slim" gaming machine, so you have to expect it's going to have some limitations to give you the smaller [thinner] size.

I ended up with the Acer Helios 16S which is far faster, much better screen, and I feel like the keyboard is better (although I wish the 16S didn't have the numpad), but also was $1275 (so 175 more than what I paid, and $275 more than this deal).
