Is This the BEST Gaming Laptop? (IT HAS A 3070!)

You should be roasted brian for even reviewing this overpriced thing.

Hello Brian It's been a while! Great song from a great band. Great cover my dude. Man, you've got a good voice for singing. Thank you for keeping on keeping on For holding it down No stopping this man. Tech YESSSSS!

Saw the 3070 qhd in stock this morning and grabbed one right before they went out of stock. Can't wait for this thing to get here.

[@Matt-sf4hi]

Do you still have it? How did you like it?

[@Svet3YT]

Hey Bryan, kinda off topic but: I'd love to see you explain next stream why you think that platinum is as you say "the future" and why you are fond of it as a store of value. I am not quite sure about it, especially since it's mostly used industrially, and even there it becomes gradually less and less. For it to be seen as a store of value, similar to gold - it lacks the popularity and traces of it's history as such in the people's minds imo. Thx & keep up the great vids!

[@234paka]

Thank you for making review about this device currently it's the cheapest 3070 here in UAE, that's for the base version with 6 core i7 cpu and 144hz 1080p display, tho I'm pretty sure I don't need 8 core CPU since I'll just game only, I'm glad their cooling solution is great!!

[@71001L]

Something about having a big old pc case on your desk that makes the whole setup look full and cozy.

Here's my piece of the laptop pie. Got my laptop hooked to the KVM,so, usually that's the way I'm using it. Say, Brian, maybe,it wise to check it with external peripherials???? And screen,as well?

[@Turok2]

That intro haha "it's been a while" since Ive heard Staind

[@KylePetersonDmaster223]

That was perfection

[@shodan6401]

The big problem with Razor Blades is that they couldn't cool the core components enough in the ultra-thin form factor for the CPU and GPU to run at their optimal speeds, and in trying to do so, they were very loud. If they have solved these problems, then I'd say that they have finally hit their mark. I ended up with a thicker and heavier Alienware laptop from 2016 specifically because of those issues (and I wanted the 4K Touch Display with over 100% sRGB and 100% aRGB for editing). I'm so happy with this laptop that I use it more than my over powered main rig just for comfort, and if I can ever buy a GPU, then I can use Alienware's Graphics Amplifier to bypass the internal GPU and keep using it. It's heavy, but it's also tough as hell...

[@RdandTrk1]

I LOVE YOUR INTROS!

[@Imranayaaz]

Does this laptop have a water-cooling system incorporated?

[@Matt-sf4hi]

No, it uses vapor chamber cooling and fans.

[@sonsofmatriarchy5552]

Hey Bryan can you compare the Razer Blade pro 17 to the MSI GP66 3070 at $2799aud 3080 at $3699aud Price to performance wise I thought the GP66 is where it's at. Thanks 👍

[@desardlika755]

[@MichaelSmith-cl1uo]

that price tag ... wow

[@leozinhosozinho]

Without watching the video or knowing the price, 3-4k? That’s razer for you 🙃

[@bonedawgstudio5649]

Not much of a value proposition in the PC space right now. Unfortunately it's not just tech, signs of inflation are everywhere (except maybe wages)... At some point continuing to print and distribute more fiat has diminishing benefits (and could actually do more harm than good).

[@amightygrizzly]

You know. I actually served with a man named Taylor Lewis who is related to Aaron Lewis. Of course, he smoked pot like he was made of nothing but weeds and fire like a chimney. But yeah, we used to sing during training back in infantry. He was a great buddy who protected us. Hope he is doing alright in life.

[@jbeeches1]

Hi Tech Yes City ' would you get this Razer over the Alienware new x17 with 3070 and a 1080p 300hzr sceen same price ? Is the 2k screen good one on this Razer? cheers from London .

[@qT_p13]

Got a usb stick in my car runnin all the alternative hits from the 2000s.

[@FeeFee121]

Please please make a song about the intro. That was awesome !

[@owenzhang4930]

in your opinion how does this laptop compare with Asus rog s17? or msi gs 75 stealth? they all come in pretty expensive price, msi is a little cheaper still expensive. By the way raon lee she has her own channel on KZbin and she does singing quite beautifully

[@aquaman5464]

yes enjoyed the video ! Thanks

[@m-w-y7325]

The biggest thing you pay for in Razer laptops is their durability, they are the Macbooks for gamers and I have my 2017 pro model and it has been running like a charm. so if you want something that runs for the long haul this is the machine for you. (Keyboard still sucks tho, would take dell's XPS keyboard anytime)

[@Seanweekhaizhen]

It's too expensive for just an 80-100w 3070 Max-q The MSI GP66/76, alienware M15/M17R4 are cheaper and have a higher tdp 3070 mobile If you want a thin and light, get the Gigabyte Aorus with 3080 Max-q which is cheaper at just 2000 dollars. It'll be faster as well.

[@loremlittlebluedragon9119]

Yea the 3070 Max-q is a far cry from the desktop 3070 or even the Max-p versions. Definitely not worth $2600 for a slower and hotter laptop vs what Asus, MSI, Gigabyte and AW offers.

[@Seanweekhaizhen]

@@loremlittlebluedragon9119 yeah Razer was never known for their value.

[@techyescity]

Cool thanks for the feedback, been a while since I have been in the world of laptops.

[@Seanweekhaizhen]

@@techyescity don't worry about it. Its more of razer's fault than anything. It'll be great if you could do some reviews of good bang for buck options like the GP66. I'd love to watch that

[@pornelius3728]

When do you think the best time to buy pc parts here in Aus? Since they’re kinda overpriced rn

[@castercs]

i might have missed.. whats TDP on GPU ?

[@711jastin]

building a i7+3070 pc in my local pc shop cost almost as much as this laptop, makes me wonder if buying a laptop is a better value decision.

[@ultimategohan1551]

Oh it definitely is, especially if you avoid razer. Theyre are other brands that have better performance starting at 1300.

[@your_comrade7119]

razer qc has always been an issue

[@smellymancheese]

Way too expensive, you can get the Legion 5 Pro for a significantly lower price which has a much better Ryzen processor along with a higher wattage 3070 (140W). 1440p 165hz 16:10 screen as well.

[@Seanweekhaizhen]

Yeah, razers have shit value

[@techyescity]

Thanks for the feedback, been a while since I have checked out laptops.

[@smellymancheese]

@@techyescity No problem haha, just wanted to give my thoughts.

[@James-wc1mt]

There isn't much difference in fps between 130w and 140w..only about 2-3 fps which you wouldn't miss anyway. 130w will run cooler than 140w.

[@adamreid5901]

What does ips like mean?

[@weecious]

There are different monitors panels like TN (cheapest but best response time until lately IPS and other panels are starting to catch up with response time). Then there's VA panel which is a cheaper version of IPS, you could say? Then there's IPS panel which gets the best colors and cleaner looking picture/games/better for editing overall.

[@techyescity]

Same tech, they just can't use the term officially as the other (i forgot which brand), has it patented I think?

[@Paulie8K]

Crazy that my desktop that cost a little over 1K USD has similar performance to this laptop that's 1.5X the cost. Im under the camp of put the spend into a beefy desktop and then get a budget laptop for the road. Get the best of both worlds for probably the cost of that one laptop.

[@ultimategohan1551]

Not necessarily i didnt have have the desktop space, so i got a laptop that outperforms this razer in games for 1500, heck it probably would've been more money going the desktop route plus getting a decent monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers, etc. Especially since i got it last November when gou prices were absurd. Now in the long run yeah a desktop is cheaper because you raplace parts. But with some smart shopping laptops can be great value as well. A couple weeks later i couldve gotten my laptop for 1300.

[@Paulie8K]

@@ultimategohan1551 I actually ended up getting a 3080 laptop a few months after this comment. I think people should just get what works best for their situation at the end of the day.

[@ИванКеренский-б9й]

@@ultimategohan1551what it was? I mean laptop for 1500?

[@countlessbathory1485]

$3500 is a too big of an ask imo especially because windows 10 is horrible, however if someone really wants a gaming laptop this would be a great choice. The thing is impressive and sexy.

[@sergestar4536]

Moooooore Moore moooore laptops please !!!!!!.

[@stevencharette7918]

btw i cannot imagine a 3070 in a laptop my desktop 3070 strix get EXTREMELY hot in the case no laptop can handle such a powerful card without losing a large amount of performance

[@Seanweekhaizhen]

It's about 60-70% as fast as the desktop card

[@weecious]

"I believe", RTX 2000 series laptops (last gen) GPUs were on par with desktop GPUs. I'm not 100% sure but I think that was the case... I would never own a "gaming" laptop because I don't need it, they're way overpriced when components are sold at MSRP prices, they get worse performance compared to desktops, the battery drains REALLY fast when gaming (so kind of pointless) and you don't get the joy of picking your own components and building your rig afterwards :)

[@Krenisphia]

As a Strix I presume the performance is great? How is the thermals though?

[@mikeymaiku]

Lol how. My 3070 tuf is considered inferior and i never go past 70 degrees (sandwich style sff case too) you need to define "too hot". You would be surprised the max thermal tempa are alot higher than you think

[@stevencharette7918]

@@weecious yeah you're about right so was the GTX 1080 TGP was 150w, now the 3000 series with a 3060 or 3070 is way under that what is it 90 to 115 TGP

[@HJayZ91]

Hey Bryan can you do a video on the higher CPU overhead on Nvidia cards vs AMD cards for us that are using older CPUs like 4790k. It seems with older CPUs, even a weaker card like 5700 XT would get you better fps vs a 3070 or 3080 because of that high overhead on Nvidia cards. Thanks and keep up the good work!

[@weecious]

You need a CPU upgrade that way a 3070 or a better GPU won't get a bottleneck. Quad cores even with HT are starting to become outdated for gaming now days... but they lasted for 7 years since last quad core i7? That's a lot of money saved.

[@HJayZ91]

@@weecious I mean a lot of people don't have the funds to upgrade everything at once and of course for gaming you want the best GPU you can afford. In the cases we would want to know how we can squeeze out the most performance and if AMD or Nvidia cards would give that to you. Also if you're playing at a higher resolution, that will also help minimize the effects of bottleneck as well.

[@weecious]

@@HJayZ91 I get that.. that's why I upgraded my CPU and mobo last summer, was gonna get an RX 6800 but due to mining and scalping... looks like I'll be skipping this gen of GPUs. I play at 1440p and even upgrading from 1700X to 3700X got me a perfomance increase of up 20fps in some games. Single core perfomance was lacking with 1700X... 3700X feels a lot snappier. Right now is a good time to upgrade to a newer CPU since GPUs are 2 - 3 times MSRP prices. And next CPUs will be using DDR5 which will be expensive for at least first year to two years. If you buy a Ryzen CPU then make sure you get fast RAM, it really does help quiet a bit to get better perfomance in games and in certain apps. I know for sure since I built a rig for my dad when 1600 was $80 brand new and got a 16GB DDR4 3000mhz CL15 which I tested in my rig and I got noticeably lower fps in few games that I tested compared to my 16GB DDR4 3600mhz CL16 kit. I would say for Ryzeb it's best to get 3200mhz CL14 at least (on budget CL16) or 3600mhz CL16 or better. If you go Intel then most popular kits (with many good reviews) 3000mhz / 3200mhz kits should be fine. Zen3 is overpriced and Intel's 11th gen is a disappointment... which CPU are you trying to get 6 or 8 core? As much as I don't like Intel since they made us buy quad cores for too many years... it seems that Intel is the better price right now. 5600X/5800X are way overpriced. If you're not into overxlocking then i5 11400 or i5 11400F is the best price/perfomance CPU. It's basically on par with i5 11600K in games when both running at stock speeds. If you do other things besides gaming that require heavy use on CPU then definitely get an 8 core.. right now i7 11700F seems like a good deal.. too bad you can't overclock it though.
