Pros: - Ready to use, plug and play for the most part (just have to remove the protective foam from inside of PC first), Windows was already installed and good to go, no need to enter a key or anything. (will have to do Windows Updates though but that's common with any new PC) - Lightning fast in terms of turning on and running current games on ULTRA settings (using a 1440p monitor and FPS is around 100 on most games) - Graphics card was ASUS GTX1080TI as advertised on image - wires and harnesses were neatly bundled and routed through PC - not much bloatware, only a few programs pre installed

Cons: - Graphics card can run a little loud at times when fan speed ramps up past 60% but it rarely does even on ULTRA settings - Not much LED lighting besides the fans at the back and front - Motherboard brand is not listed but it is ASrock (not bad but not ASUS) - Keyboard and mouse are very basic and clunky, will have to go buy your own if you want a good gaming version of each

Overall Review: Had this for 6 weeks so far and very happy with the way it runs, absolutely no issues so far. Will look to update the review in 6 months time again. So far so good and I would definitely recommend it. The price is very good for the parts in it.

Pros: - Great price for the 'advertised' specs - Newegg was friendly and efficient when I returned the laptop (good customer service)

Cons: - 3070 Video Card is a 85W card (weakest of 85W-140W range) and NOT stated in the specs - Gets hot running modern AAA titles (80 degrees both CPU & GPU). Playing a recent game such as Lost Ark, the CPU temp went up to 83 and GPU to 80 when placed on a desk and gaming for 30 minutes. - Gets fairly hot around the keyboard area while gaming as well

Overall Review: The RTX3070 Video Card in this laptop is 85W. I didn't do my research until after I purchased the laptop but I highly recommend anyone considering this purchase because you see an RTX3070, to look up "Video Card TGP ratings". There are Google articles and YouTube videos (definitely worth looking into for such a large purchase) which explain it in better detail but here goes my best: Video Cards have a TGP (Total Graphic Power) rating based on how much power they can draw to run their internal components and maximize performance. Typically, the more power the card is built to draw, the better the performance. There are many variations of the same video cards in terms of power draw, so the 3070 laptop video cards range from 85W (Watt) through 140W with built-in boosts. Meaning you can have an RTX3070 laptop card that is substantially better performing than another RTX3070 laptop video card. The 3070 video card in this build is 85W meaning it is in the lowest range and gets beat out by a few 3060 laptop video cards (with high TGP values) in terms of performance. Overal, it is still a decent laptop but you may be able to find an RTX3060 laptop with a 130W TGP value which will outperform this 3070 videocard for a cheaper price (assuming all the other specs such as processor & RAM, etc. are similar).
