I just love my country, where this same 1600$ laptop somehow costs nearly 3000$, witch is somehow discounted from 3500$ for new year 😆😆😆

Perfect for me to game on my dad’s back when his back hurts.

Have had this for awhile now and I absolutely love it for my traveling.

When Jay just instantly disassembles the laptop without even turning it on once😂

4:48 no Corvette frame was ever made from magnesium. The C6 ZO6 did have a cast magnesium alloy front K-member that was a non-combustible alloy.

love phil's insert of magnesium cases melting, classic.

And then there's me looking at $500 laptops

love the temps on this and 3000 cinebench score is not shabby at all for a laptop

[sumikomei]

Wow, those temperatures with the balanced fan curve are actually extremely impressive for a laptop =o

There's also the *ASUS GA502DU, * which is the same basic laptop, but with a 1660 Ti and a Ryzen 7 3750H, 120Hz, no G-Sync, and no RGB. You are giving up some performance, but I snagged mine for *$949, * which is over $500 cheaper than what this GA502GV is going for right now. This usually goes for $1199, though, but sales seem rather frequent on it.

*Acer* also has a very compelling option with their *Predator Helios 300, * You can get it with a 9750H and a 1660 Ti, and with a 144Hz display, for *$1099.99.* You lose just a tad of GPU performance, and lose G-sync, but you are getting it for $400 cheaper.

The *ASUS Tuf* line-up also has some great value laptops. For example, you can get a Ryzen 5 3550H and a GTX 1650 for *$699.99, * and you get a 120Hz panel. Only 8 GB of RAM though, which is not terrible, but still something.

And there's the *Lenovo Ideapad L340 Gaming, * which unfortunately only has a 60 Hz panel, but gives you an i5-9300H (better than even the Ryzen 7 3750H), and a GTX 1650. This is going for *$695.98.* This one is particularly compelling because it has NONE of that "gaming laptop" vibe, which means it fits in on the boardroom even better than this GA502GV.

None of these are quite as good as the laptop featured in this video, but they—with some trade-offs—come very close, and, in my opinion, represent an even better value proposition.

Hey Jay i think it'd be really cool if you did a video looking at aftermarket coolers that replace the ones that come on cards. I don't think there are many good videos out that look into them at the moment. Love the videos btw!

When the winter comes you can use this laptop to keep YOUR FINGERS WARM, its great ! like an extra feature

If I get this on Christmas I will finally be able to play games above 20 frames on low graphics.

The ceramic coating on the heatpipes stops the heat from "leaking" out of the pipes, keeps it on route to cooler, will give lower chassis temperatures. Source: ceramic coating on exhausts for performance engines

Thats awesome that i came across this vid even though it almost been like a year . I bought this like 4 months ago on sale for $1, 399 at Best Buy and i been loving it. I got the $1, 199 one like a month before i got this one an with the 1660 max Q an the 120Hz also with only a 500GB drive i felt like i compromised to much but with this new one i feel like it was definitely worth it specialy since it was on sale.
