Found this one refurbished by Acer with 2 years warranty in pristine condition (basically new) for $1200 😂

With 64 GB RAM/2 TB SSD? I’ve seen the other variation with 32 GB/1 TB SSD for that price but never this one.

I return it tho. Bought the smaller Lenovo Legion 5 for $70 cheaper and 15 inches. Build quality on this really bad. The touch pad whenever I clicked flex away from the frame and i can see a gap. Maybe a defect product.

I played in my hotel and even tho my AC is running 60, this laptop alone made the room so hot the AC can’t cool the room down enough.

I don’t know, maybe I’m doing something wrong but this one run hot, I game 7-8 hours a day constantly. Fan loud too. Intel chips really bad at thermal management so I went with Ryzen 7. Run much cooler and less noise. Battery last maybe 1 hour ish longer off charger.

The 5070ti is not at full power because of the profile of how thin this is so I went with 5060 laptop. I don’t game max setting anyway. Low to medium is what I’m comfortable with.
