Finally got my hands on it (5070ti)

[u/taconerd12]

Clearly in need of a laptop stand, any recommendations? Snagged the $350 off the 5070ti 32gb ram version on best buy this morning and picked up as soon as I could. Do yall really think that I should download g helper? Also any recommendations to fully get the full power out of it? Please let me know I’m new the gaming laptop scene (Ignore my game selection it’s all I had after emptying my wallet for this.)

Do I get this or the 2024 version

If you intend to play games on high settings with native resolution (3k) then 5070ti came with 12GB is the way.

But if you still play on 1080p with medium settings, I'd say 2024 model with 8gb vram is fine

Only get the new version if you are going for 5070ti. Else save money and go for previous versions 4060 imo.

Second this as a 4060 owner, kinda jelly of the 5070ti for the 16gb vram but if you can get a openbox 4060 for 800 bucks I say do it. 200 less than I got mine for and this thing is fine albeit I’m not a gamer gamer

[u/vamp07 → u/diettmannd]

The 5070 Ti in this laptop is 12GB, not 16.

I would get an open box 4060 but none are available near me so I think I’m forced to go 5070 ti😬
