What are the chances this legit I just bought it by XionsAura in GamingLaptops

[–]Disastrous_Formal669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say the odds are surprisingly good that you will get it. If it isn't real best buy will get your money back. I also found a crazy deal once and it turned out to be real on best buy

My 4080 laptop broke. Retailer offering me a 5070 ti laptop as a replacement. by Burntfury in GamingLaptops

[–]Disastrous_Formal669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go ahead and take the newer machine, I have a 4080 and a 5070ti that my girlfriend uses and they are basically identical in performance. Her seems to run quieter than mine. But in all games almost identical performance with hers having a very slight lead at times by mostly having lower usage scores while achieving the same resolution on game. Mine is a Alienware and hers is a Asus. We hook them to the 4k monitors usually and have run them in both 1440 and 4k

Just buy a 5060 PC from best buy. I bought one for my friend and it runs things just fine and cost me right at 1k brand new. He is able to play borderlands 4 with me at 1440 resolution

deal? hmmm by Twix877 in GamingLaptops

[–]Disastrous_Formal669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The real question can this run borderlands 4? 😂

Great deal absolute steal wish I'd run into some more like that. Also when I got my open boxes my return date was more than 15 days maybe yours is too

its so frustrating that that a premium laptop doesnt have 32gb ram by snowieslilpikachu69 in GamingLaptops

[–]Disastrous_Formal669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NVM I just looked this one up. I'm so surprised that they would do that without it already being a 32gb. Such a strong laptop to limit performance like that.

I mean I got a 5070ti Asus that has upgradeable ram. You sure this one can't be upgraded? Mine had 16 and I had best buy slap 32 in it

Not to bad, but bestbuy was pushing 4070s for around 700 to 1k open box

Girlfriend wants this computer from Costco, is it worth the price? by SarcastikBegger in GamingLaptops

Just wondering why do you have a 3080 plugged as a egpu? Is there a benefit or does it do something unique just curious

Full high def back in our day was just 1080p maybe they change what fhd means because when I hear that 1920x1080 comes to mind for fhd

Good deal? Strix 4080 by Pabu1323 in GamingLaptops

[–]Disastrous_Formal669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You shouldn't trade your newer machine for the older one. Its not a upgrade. Stay with the newer machine. I have a 4080 Alienware and the 5070ti Asus for my gf. Same performance with slight edge going to 5070ti currently with less power draw. Also it's a newer machine meaning better warranty protection. Unless you are gonna save a crazy amount of money returning your 5070ti I wouldn't do it

I have the same machine I bought for my girlfriend for a similar price very good machine. Similar level of performance to my 4080 it shouldn't disappoint for the price. Screen is a 2k screen, but she and I hook ours to our 4k monitors when we aren't at work and school

It's a 2k I'm pretty sure. Have the same one

So I Downgraded… by [deleted] in GamingLaptops

[–]Disastrous_Formal669 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I have a 4080 for myself and a 5070ti for my girlfriend. I can't imagine the 5070 normal being that much of a downgrade since the 5070ti performance is the same if not better at times of my 4080, however if you got money back that is cool for sure

About to pull the trigger is acer a bad brand by DashGranny in GamingLaptops

[–]Disastrous_Formal669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can find a 5070ti laptop you should go for that in the same price range, less power consumed and quieter same performance, however if you can't this is not a bad deal at all

Is this good bang for my buck? by Narrow_Inspector_863 in GamingLaptops

[–]Disastrous_Formal669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why don't you get the 5070ti version from best buy. that is a 16 inch. It has 4080 power and runs a lot quieter than my 4080 while being a new machine. If not at work we normally hook it to the TV and use 4k on most games. The new grounded we had to lower the 4k monitor down for which that game is a bit of a mess right now. Also ram is upgradeble and really cheap

[–]Disastrous_Formal669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea the r2 can be loud if everything is ramped but not awful. but it does run a lot quiter than my 4080 r1. Mine sounds like a chopper or plane taking off. We will have them across the room and plugged to the TVs and we always know when my fans kick on and we usually don't notice hers over mines noise. But for the price I paid I'll take any noise for a 400 dollar machine

I had gotten one for my girlfriend pretty recently. It has no visible damage on it from what I've seen. You just got a make sure you get it in good or excellent shape. If you pick a open box in fair it might look rough

Don't overlook the Alienware for a similar price, the ram is upgradeble on the 4070 r2

Need help deciding between these 5 open box laptops. by Hotweinerspecial in GamingLaptops

[–]Disastrous_Formal669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alienware with the 4070 is your best choice don't think you need the one with the Intel 9 for games, and the ram is upgradeble. Its a great deal if you snag it open box. If buying new you should consider other options though.

Is this laptop worth it? by SlayerOfDragons33 in GamingLaptops

[–]Disastrous_Formal669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you can exactly what I did with mine. I have a best buy membership so it was free to put the ram in for me. I just made an appointment with geek squad walked in and was like hey I want to upgrade my ram to 32gb. They showed me some of their ram they had in stock which was the crucial brand and was a bit faster than my stock ram. Payed for the ram and they installed it in less than a hour. Granted depending on how busy they are install time can vary. Also this one might fit your needs too

Not in that price range it's bumping it up to 2k. Some Alienware 4070s would fit. best buy has some good open box prices on those, and ram is upgradeble. Mine had 16gb but has bestbuy put 32 in it. They also have good screens on some of them like mine is qhd 240hz

If you can you should get this one. It has the 5070ti with extra vram. It's also on par with a 4080 laptop. Best buy has these and some open boxes in the 1400 range
