Wait for 30x GPU Laptops?

I thought 2 years was standard by law?

1 year is standard. Anything more is down to the manufacturer

Up to 5 years with retailer under your rights. Anything offered by the manufacturer is in addition to your rights.

So looks like Dave2D is going to maintain a spreadsheet of all the 3000 series laptops and their wattage + a single benchmark.

Yea this will be good. It's looking super confusing at the moment.

Dave2D seems to just do short opinion pieces nowadays. He doesn’t review nearly as many laptops or in as much detail as Jarrod’s Tech does. Hopefully Dave2D also includes details from other reputable reviewers and not just the ones he tests.

He said in his video he will include data for all laptops he is sent, even if they don’t make the review bench.

Anyone unable to pre order on the store? I am from Ireland and it is not allowing me to buy the new Asus Strix Scar 17.

Think you've got Brexit/DPD issues to thank for that.

Tempted by the Razer Blade Pro 17, but cautious due to QC issues and Razer’s customer support.

Personally I'd want one of the newer Ryzen 5000 chips.

Wow that's some serious money. Is there a 5800 and 3070 combo where you ordered from?

Yea gaming laptops are terrible value when compared against their desktop counterparts. If you absolutely need a laptop then you have no choice, otherwise for £2800 you could build a beast of a desktop that would leave the same priced laptop in the dust.

Only reason I'm getting this is my alienware got water damaged and my insurance paid out 3k for it.

I have a 3080 desktop system already so this will just sit at work for when we are quiet at the weekends like the alienware did
