One of the best deals, glad I bought this.

A laptop in the configuration Core i7 9750H/16Gb/SSD256+HDD1000/RTX2060/17.3", bought for 100 thousand. For this configuration, for September 2022 it was one of the most affordable offers. I searched and chose a laptop for a month, rummaged through all the reviews, forums and blogs. Before that, there was also a 17-inch Dell 7720, but it is already 6 years old, old man. The laptop was taken for work and sometimes games. It copes with its tasks by 100%.

Pros
  • Performance. Everywhere and in everything. All games run at maximum settings without problems. All programs run quickly and work without friezes. The nvme disk has rather low performance for its class, but in practice there is no difference in reading 1000 Mb / s or 3000 Mb / s. Everything is about the same speed. If desired, you can stick any other 2280 format disk. The screen is excellent. I expected it to be a budget model with a poor screen, but everything turned out to be quite good. There are slight backlight irregularities, but these are rather nit-picking. The picture quality is comparable to normal monitors. There are versions with a 144 Hz monitor, but there the price tag is already quite sky-high. The battery charges very quickly - less than an hour to a full charge. But how long it lasts is not clear until it has been unplugged from the outlet. The main ports are at the back, which is convenient for me personally.
Cons
  • The easily soiled case, glossy above the keyboard and in the dark is a little annoying - the screen is reflected in it. The keyboard is not the full width of the case, for some reason they left a couple of centimeters on the sides. Perhaps because of this, the keys are a little narrower in width, they seem too small. Fn keys of dubious purpose. For example, among them there is no disabling the touchpad - the necessary functionality is enough, but there is a search, which can also be called using the win + q keys. Why this is duplicated on the Fn keys is not at all clear. Disabling the touchpad is solved by windows settings - there is an option to disable the touchpad when a mouse is connected. Very noisy under load, like a vacuum cleaner. The weight. Well, yes, it's heavy, but it's also 17 inches.
