    at $8000 the price is absurd tho. even more expensive than the Alienware x17 with the same specs

  2. Greetings, excellent video. I am looking for a laptop to study systems engineering, program and play from time to time, I have these 3 options, which one do you recommend?
    Dell G15 Ryzen 7 5800H, 16Gb Ram, 512Gb, 3050ti, $980
    Hp Omen 16 Ryzen 7 5800H, 16Gb Ram, 512Gb, 3050ti, $1070
    Lenovo Legion 5 Ryzen 7 5800H, 16Gb Ram, 512Gb, 3050ti, $1160
    As far as components are identical, my problem is which one suits me for battery life, keyboard comfort, etc.

    The new 12th gen CPU's look AMAZING, performance dominates Ryzen and 11th gen by a large 30% margin. After seeing this I am returning my AMD laptop and preordering a 12th gen one instead.

  4. Luca L

    Has it g-sync? Is important for old games and emulators like MAME…

  5. Dhyey Jatania

    Please review 2022 models of Asus, such as the M16 and ROG Strix Scar 15

  6. Lend

    Helo, how does the screen performs in gaming? The lack of gsync is really worries me about buying it

  7. Born2Win

    $4200? Walking around with a used car in your backpack

  8. Supremacy 98

    How does it compare with a desktop with, for example, a Ryzen 5 5600X and RTX 2080 or something like that? If it's comparable, it might be the realistic desktop replacement that everyone hoped for

  9. Alvin Gatucao

    hi specs but low grade material MSI laptops produce.. not to buy ever again..👎👎👎

  10. David

    Good job
    Btw plz make a video about the required system for 3d modeling and if a gaming laptop for example can meet the needs

    And also about different display aspect ratios like 16×10 and 16×9 etc and the benefits of each

    Tnk u so much

  11. Tim Custer

    I want too see someone take the vbios and install it in the 11 gen version and see if it can handle it

  12. Carlos Alfonso

    On my 11th gen ge76 raider I get 90-96 degrees when gaming. Is this normal? When it's idle it's 40-60

  13. legendp2011

    fantastic overview. I am curios how the aleinware x17 will compare (especailly in silent mode). Would be interesting to see if a base i5/i7 and rtx 3060 mode can maintain full GPU clocks in silent mode on either the ge76 or aleinware x17

  14. Bubble Bram

    Not great for external monitor set ups due to the ports mentioned in the video. Have to leave Optimus on? No vrr?

    Idk man this thing looks extremely ugly in images too. Maybe it looks better in real life?

    That's gonna be a no from me.

  15. Mike

    I still don't understand why people should buy gaming laptop.

  16. Brad Haines

    1080p shouldnt even be an option with an 80 series anymore. pixel density is just trash at 17inch especially

  17. Meow

    I am thinking on getting this laptop and and also buying external 360hz monitor for it. Is there gonna be an input lag when connected? I am planning on playing some competitve FPS games on it

  18. Brandon Vela

    Man I need help getting a gaming laptop I’m ready to drop money on this but I can’t find what I’m looking for I want it to be msi or asus

  19. Womz

    I think for the price this should have a 16:10 QHD panel with improved brightness, at least 400 nits.

  20. Thomas Luggiero

    Vapor chamber already MSI. These heatpipes are getting old and hot. For almost a $1,000 less you can get a clevo/sager build with a desktop CPU and a 3080!! Are they fcking nuts?

  21. n.m.e

    how does it compare to the Raider GE66 12UHS ?

  22. VIDS

    You lost me at display nits less than 300…. It’s not worth the hassle of a review…. What a hell is wrong with laptop makers these days??? You pay through the nose to get a laptop like that and it can’t even do HDR… What a SICK joke!

  23. Abdo

    Does the 12700h + 3080ti version have a mux switch?

  24. Watermenlon

    1440 240hz or 1080 360hz? saying that both esports titles and AAA games will be played, what's the best choice?

  25. Tindreal

    I could overwatch the pathetically high price, if it werent missing a mandatory gaming feature: G-Sync with the built in screen.

  26. maegnificant

    this 12th gen version is barely faster than my 10UH-Model in games, I did expect it to be at least 10-25% faster. Since I overclocked my unit, it might be almost as fast as the stock unit here. great news for me!

  27. Luca Perrone

    Can you make a comparison between this and the new Alienware x17 ? Would be awesome

  28. flexicus

    Jarrod: "Most people aren't going to be gaming during a meeting or something".

    Me: Looking left and right frantically.

  29. MaShiro

    Is it worth getting rtx 3080 ti over 3070 ti?

  30. Nayan sai

    I would like to buy this laptop where can i find this

  31. Kim Nis

    Reminds me of PBS Space Time, just about computers instead 😀

  32. Dr Dre 3009

    I will buy this after 7-9 years when its 5th of its now price 🤣🤣🤣
