      I would now love to watch you make a review of the Legion Pro 7i 2024 which I had to check out on other UA-cam channels since you haven't reviewed it yet (only the 2023 version). I like your thorough and honest reviews packed with many details a lot better than the other UA-cam reviews and I'm seriously thinking about buying it now after you have it as your second best choice gaming laptop (in my eyes Legion Pro 7i is more interesting than the Legion I7 because of the better graphics card). Thanks!

      I have to agree, recently bought a LOQ and it's pretty good in terms of performance/compromises (no RGB keyboard but still white light, 60whr battery but battery life on a HX processor would be bad anyways). It has an RTX 4060 with the max TGP available and they also give you the opportunity to overclock & undervolt it via the Vantage software. Also they are able to push the i7 13650hx a lot making it on par with a i7 12700k in terms of cinebench scores

      My 2023 i9/4060 Neo 16 is still going strong. I had to re-metal the CPU after a year, I started getting higher CPU temp deltas and 90C balanced mode thermal throttle started happening at lower power levels (70 ish W). Some of the LM had pooled next to the CPU but at least it was still safe trapped inside the barrier.
      Still no undervolting, which is still my biggest gripe.

    Hey Jarrod- I love your content and everything. And I have always seen you praise the LOQ series. But I'd like to hear your opinion about the dead motherboard issue that plagues the LOQ series (it seems to be more prevalent in the Intel machines). It's a great laptop but I am really hesitant to buy it when I see people all over reddit complaining about their 3 time returned LOQ having a dead motherboard. Hope you see this and address the issue because otherwise, this is a great bang for a buck machine.

      Yes, that's my question as well. What is the "Best gaming laptop money can buy?"
      I assume it's the Scar 18 or the MSI Raider.
      I've been saving for a long time and I want to buy exactly the best gaming laptop money can buy,.
      My worry is cooling and performance. Here where I live (Norway) it's almost impossible to buy the Scar with an AMD CPU. They just don't have them. And ordering from Amazon or whatnot means the import tax will make it even more expensive. Like, I was trying to somehow buy the Scar 17 with the X3D CPU but I haven't found a way to buy it without going through customs. It was just never sold in my country. This all means I have to buy Intel and I don't really trust Intel with "thermals" as all the Intel gaming laptops I ever owned or saw were thermal throttling like crazy. Always "bumping their heads" on the 100 C limit. AMD runs much cooler in comparison.
      I don't care much about "portability" because even though I travel for work I always travel in a way that I can carry a 17'' laptop with me without any problems. It has to be portable as I can't take a monitor and a PC case with me, but when I'm settled in I use it always plugged in anyway.

    Got the MSI Titan HX and this is by far the best gaming laptop provided you're willing to pay the money it costs. But if you get it with 32gb ram and 2tb ssd version it won't cost overly much even with the 4090 gpu.
    What makes this laptop the best is it's cooling. It's got massive vapor chamber and with a proper liquid metal mod the temperatures can drop down by up to 20c and it will never thermal throttle again on top of boosting higher clocks and overclocks.

    The 2024 Legion Pro 7/7i got an upgrade to a 100% DCI-P3 screen, giving it the creator credentials the 2023 model sorely lacked.
    Edit: The AMD Zen 5 version of the Asus G16 is available in the US with an RTX 4070 and 32 GB of RAM. Problem is, it's really expensive even when on sale. You may as well spend a bit more for the Intel Core Ultra version with RTX 4080 at that point.

    I have the Legion 7i for about 4 months, and it is almost perfect! The glacier white slim body is just beautiful, and playing games on it simply DESTROYS my Ps5 both in image quality and frame rates.

    It all boils down to price & your location. At my place for example G14 for some reason costs as much as Flow X13 and in some variants even the ProArt PX13. Also a lot of laptops that were decent & in good configuration are already sold out (cuz Christmas). So if you are planing to get a laptop, but you are not in a hurry, then maybe wait for post Christmas sales or maybe even for the 1st quarter of 2025 as new stuff is coming out - and when new stuff is out, older gen is usually sold at a huge discount. Btw I am surprised that TUF A14 did not make it to the list.

    I was recently in USA for the first time on a work trip and I hit a great promo - Victus 15 with RX6550M and Ryzen 5 7000 series for the awesomly low price of 429USD. It is suprisingly nice for such dirt cheap price and it comes with an adequate and efficient Ryzen APU, not some shitty power hungry Intel crap. The GPU should be similar to RTX3050 4GB, but still don't have some time to properly test it.The display is also good, even though I had some reservations from some interviewers. All I needed to do is put some extra 8 Gigs RAM (it was about 25 EUR locally) and swap the 1TB SSD from my old laptop and voila - a cheap budget gaming machine. The Lenovo looks not bad either, but unfortunately couldn't get good offers on my short time in USA.
