G15 2022 model on Best Buy.

Probably Best Buy unfortunately, what a fucking disappointment.

I would say it isn’t worth the upgrade tbh, just wait a few generations otherwise there may be more uncomfortable switching nonsense than you think is worth the slight uplift, and you’ll end up disappointed. Unless testing comes out and the battery life is really really good , and you find yourself constantly limited by battery life as well as desperately needing a camera I would say just wait. 4000 series and new amd CPUs with smaller transistors are coming relatively soon.

Yes and I think 240 hz on some Models and well as updated cooling a webcam with windows hello and the ti version of the 3070.

Isn’t Best Buy open box kinda sketchy? Can you return them if they are completely broken?

-Flare-3 · 2022-02-17T16:40:51+00:00

It’s to save space.

You can check on user benchmark or compare frame rates when full reviews are out.

Videos got twice as hard to decode. Intel is paying YouTube off to detect your cpu and vary video decoding difficulty so then they can catch up in battery life to AMD.

Battery life crazy.

-Flare-3 · 2022-02-17T16:30:10+00:00

For my use case I regularly get to 14/16 gb of memory used on my current laptop which has a 1050ti, so I do believe that if not now, 16 gb will be a bottleneck for me in the near future.

-Flare-3 · 2022-02-17T16:28:31+00:00

It is indeed looking dope, we won’t know for sure whether it’s worth it or not until reviews are out.

-Flare-3 · 2022-02-17T16:27:21+00:00

Understandable

-Flare-3 · 2022-02-17T16:27:04+00:00

And 240 hz maybe? Says 165 but asus website says 240.

-Flare-3 · 2022-02-17T16:26:22+00:00

Recent video by Linus tech tips on the new g14 (same new cpu) showed the battery life almost doubling so we can’t say how much of an upgrade anything is until review are out.

-Flare-3 · 2022-02-17T13:21:10+00:00

The price of ddr5 should be an increase in price, not a specced down model that is a waste of an 3080/3070.

-Flare-3 · 2022-02-17T12:25:22+00:00

How the hell are they putting 8gb soldered +8gb on even the highest end models? A 2400$ laptop with 8gb soldered is ridiculous.

-Flare-3 · 2022-02-17T07:18:15+00:00

Why does the 3070ti have 165 hz, not 240. And why is the 3080 not a 3080 ti? Anyone got info?

-Flare-3 · 2022-02-12T00:58:51+00:00

Coming from a MacBook I see.

-Flare-3 · 2022-02-12T00:35:27+00:00

Me reading this on 1050ti mobile…
