    I still have my 17, it’s a beast even with it’s old tech. It runs everything I throw at it.

    But this 17 still great gear, thanks for your comparison video, very helpful

    Been running my R4 17 (Gtx 1070 and added a m.2 ssd) for about 5 years. It runs everything I throw at it. Only thing I've had to replace is the keyboard as the W and B keys kept popping out. Use it 5 days a week while at work. It survived a 5 foot fall and only the rear bottom cover broke (near the heatsink) and 3 heatsink fins bent a little. I do have the alienware backpack for it though and it's lasted just as long as the laptop. Throw it in my car trunk and ride with it on when I bring my motorcycle to work. I've had no negative experiences with it.

    I hope they bring back that angular look. I would like them to put the series letter on the back instead of the size. I think it would look cleaner, and maybe add some hexagon rgb inside the letter in the back screen.

    I had the Alienware R3 M17; i9, 300ghz, 32gb ram, version. Sold it. Now I have the Asus Zephyrus M16; i9, 16gb ram, RTX 3070Ti.
    It’s quite an impressive laptop, defeats the Alienware game control and fan issues.

    I found someone selling the rtx 2070 super one for around 800$ and it was like new
    Should I get it?
    I'm searching for a good deal under 1k right now.
    and so if i shouldn't get it , what do you recommend?

    • @RISINTECH
      @RISINTECH  Před rokem +1

      Ya 800 for a fairly new clean laptop is really nice deal, I tested both rtx 2070 super and 3070ti if u r not heavy tech savvy u r not gonna find it much different. But then again may I know what is your purpose for getting the laptop? For work gaming ? Causal or hardcore gaming?

      @@mohamedsudani5888 well unfortunately 2070 superb will not be future proof as most game r pretty depending these days since 4070 will launch soon on new laptops if u do want to get better deal I sugguest 3070ti last year version I’m sure there r plenty of people selling it. But 2070 will most likely last u 3 years or so running game from high to Med low in the next couple of years, it still works perfectly just depends on how demanding you are. If your student and budget I would just stick with 2070super maybe try to bargain for abit lower price.

    I've got the R4 and I can throw any game at it in 2022 latest games and smooth as. doesn't matter about these new laptops with their RTX. if they can't keep them cool it doesn't work.and the R4 they are running the GTX flat out. but these new ones they are restricting them because they can't run cool enough.that's why the R4 is big for cooling.

      @@RISINTECH yeah best laptop I've ever had the R4.can play all games flat out specs is great.120hz display is very good even for a TN.I didn't buy it new but was in new condition.had it bit over a year no problems yet.I dnt see the need for these latest laptops cost thousands for what.maybe a bit smoother but I doubt would notice much.there's no games out yet that require anymore power.I haven't even upgraded the ram or needed to overclock it yet.mines got the 1080 GTX.if these new laptops are thin then they've probably needed to downrate the graphics card to run cool enough in that thin body.

      Something is not right in your situation, wish I could be more help. I have a laundry issues of things I don't like about this laptop, but I got games like Red Dead 2 cranked up to full everything and it keeps handles it. The only thing I can offer, which surprised me when it happened- I was having freequent lock ups and stutters, even when plugged into power. One day, I got a message that the battery failed, and after that, the problems went away. I wouldn't think a bum battery would cause issues when a laptop was plugged in, but I believe now that it was.
