Are you going to travel from place to place for work? Then go for g17 as ryzen tends to be more battery efficient not to mention asus isnknown for their good battery life. Otherwise, go for gp76 as you get more performance on i7 12th gen.

[@HesiGrinds]

Was gonna buy that gt77 titan, is the legion pro really good?

[@ibrahimawais9356]

@@HesiGrinds Depends what you need, but the Legion 5 Pro is a very good balance between performance and affordability. The screen is one of the major sellers about it as it's 2560x1600 165hz, and is color accurate. The GT77 however as the vid above says is pretty much a desktop replacement and made for absolute performance. If you don't need the best of the best, and just do gaming or office or school work, then the 5 Pro does very well, but if you do content creation or stuff and NEED the absolute best, it's the GT77. Also I bought a Legion 5 Pro 2021 with a Ryzen 7 5800H and RTX 3070 from Walmart for 1400$. It's by no means as strong as the GT77 but for 1400$ it's a super competitive price. I also saw a 3060 model for 1180 on Newegg. The 3050 ti and 3050 models can go for under 800$ so if it's super light gaming like CSGO or Rocket League then those could work as well, but I think those are the Legion 5 (non Pro), which has a less impressive screen. Still a very good laptop though, would highly recommend

This channel was helping me considerate before buying laptop

[@zlamdunk007]

2:48 I have to say, I'm really interested in a full-on comparison between the GT77 Titan, and the ROG Strix Scar 17 SE! The Titan can hold more NVMe storage, RAM, and has more cooling fans, WITH the phase change thermal paste, but even though the Strix Scar 17 SE has less RAM and NVMe storage slots, it has a FULL vapor chamber cooler, AND Thermal Grizzly's liquid metal thermal paste, so it should also stay nice and cool enough for true hard core computing power!

[@zlamdunk007]

I'll just say, I'm a HUGE fan of desktop replacement laptops. I don't care that much about battery power. As long as I'm near a power outlet, which let's be honest, when isn't there a power outlet close by when using a laptop... indoors. I do understand the need for battery longevity when it comes to laptop use outdoors, or within large facilities. I just want a super powerful computer that I can use for pretty much EVERYTHING: gaming, media, CADD, CAM, and VM's, with 16+ CPU threads, 8+GB of VRAM, 2+TB of NVMe RAID storage, 32+GB RAM, and more!

I'll be more careful next time around to get something without all the proprietary bloatware, a MUX switch, and an unlocked usable bios.

Hi Jared, I'm choosing a laptop for myself, but I've been fixated on the diagonal, I've always used 24 inches before, and now I'm thinking whether 15.6 is too small and whether the difference with 17.3 inches is significant, the weight of the laptop and its dimensions are not important to me. What can you say about this? Will 15.6 inches be enough for games? If choose 17 inches, then I don't have much choice: MSI GP76 Leopard RTX 3070 i7-11800H ASUS ROG Strix G17 RTX 3070 Ryzen 7 5800H Well, if i take 15 inches, then the choice is much more, in this case I am more inclined to Legion 5 or legion 5 about 16 inches

I bought my lenovo legion 5 2021 (R7- 3070 - 16gb ddr4) after your review for 1422€ from Amazon (plus added 2x16gb crucial memory for 170€ swapping the “slow stock ram”) and it’s really great No problem at all even on flight simulator V-high settings Also thanks for your video regarding The slow ram !!! I bought The 2021 version because i could not buy The 2022 Intel 12th gen cpu versions price-wise (my wallet was not that capable 😂)

youre the best yt creator regarding gaming laptops! thank you so much, ive been looking for so long for someone like you

[@JarrodsTech]

Thanks!

[@zajlord2930]

cant you buy laptop, review it and return it? in eu you would have 14 days for testing and what not and then you could return it no problem. i was bit worried that shop might bann me for doing something like this but when i asked if i could do this to test between different items they told me it wasnt an issue. but idk how its in australia or where you live

[@JarrodsTech]

Returns don't really work that way in Australia. I need a good reason to take something back and in most cases there are fees to do it, or otherwise store credit to buy something else. Also 14 days isn't enough time, I have the next 2 months of laptop reviews planned out just with what I have here right now. In other countries it's much easier and lots of people do that.

[@zajlord2930]

@@JarrodsTech how long testing one laptop takes? isnt it like one day job? and i can imagine even that could be automated in such way you plug arduino into usb hole and let it do everything for you and when its done it would just spit out the numbers hopefully this comment doesnt insult you by devaluing your job or whatever, you are awesome, just curious how these things take

[@shavkatibragimov1732]

as usual amazing 🔥 top , p.s Jarrod if u could improve ur mic's/sound quality it would be greatly appreciated thanks for regular great content 👍

[@JarrodsTech]

What's wrong with it? The mic itself is good, but the room needs some sound treating, I'm buying some sound panels soon. But I have still done some small things and think that this sounds better than most videos in the last 6-12 months, guess I'm wrong :(

[@Jon-mh5ev]

Sounds fine here! *Slight* reverb that panels might change?

[@shavkatibragimov1732]

@@JarrodsTech yes Jarrod i agree with u i guess it has to do with the noise in the room/other things :)

[@shavkatibragimov1732]

@@Jon-mh5ev Possibly possibly these new videos of him are definately better than the previous ones for sure in terms of sound/pic/other quality but itd be even better :)

Using the 2022 L5iP with i7 and 3060. When I ordered it I hadn’t known know what a beast it would turn out to be. I love it in all regards, I’m able to use it as a work laptop too. It’s crazy fast for heavy Visual Studio projects and the quality of the webcam and especially the mic makes it good for meetings as well. I wouldn’t buy anything else if I could start over.

[@gunadeepakpallikonda]

I want to buy the same specs, u got any deal??

Do an update video of the best gaming laptop please🥺really looking forward for that

Hi Jarrod, I have the TUF 15 12700h + RTX 3060 with 300hz full HD, I think this is the best Laptop to have actually for the price ^^

[@ACE112ACE112]

How much? Does it have mux switch and a good screen? asus has cheaper out on screens in the past

Finally Mr. Jarrod's opinion about best gaming laptops (for the first semester)

[@Momo.momo789]

Just an FYI, for the last two months GPU price has reached it's msrp and keep falling. An $499 RTX 3070 from best buy is on par with the most expensive laptop GPU of 3080 Ti. So if your original intention is to choose laptop replace desktop due to prices you can check again now.

[@snowdawn]

Absolutely correct. Desktop Gpu prices are now at msrp.

[@davemeech]

This channel is so fucking good, especially if you are in the market for a laptop, particularly a mid-range and up.

[@JarrodsTech]

Thanks David!

Thank you Jarrod for you videos, You always do a good job, Hope you can keep this going for long time man , and I think companies did little improvement and added some fancy labels...... Look at these graphic cards man , nothing new but a little tweak...... I think smartest thing can be waiting for next models and saving some money or buying last years high level models when they have good discounts

[@utubepunk]

When will the next models be out though?

[@amaurytoloza1511]

Can't wait for the comparison

[@Mattiu75]

Ironically the main distinguishing feature that makes the XMG the best laptop for this year so far is the one that force it to run as a desktop PC. Similarly the 2022 laptop pricing so far brings many discounted 2021 laptops offerings back to the top of the 2022 bests list, at least in terms of value for the money.

[@JarrodsTech]

I mean it's a good laptop even without the optional liquid cooler, it was in my top lists for the last couple of years before that was an option. This is just icing on the cake for enthusiasts and it's realistically still quite portable and easy to disconnect, just takes an extra 30-60 seconds.

The Legion 5 pro with 6800h and 3070ti is an amazing machine for the price. At $1799.00 USD it’s one of the best laptops to come out this year. I previously had the Maingear Vector pro 17 (11800h/3080 16gb) and the Legion runs circles around it. Don’t let Intel fool you, the 6800h is more than enough for what a “gamer” would use it for. I’m extremely satisfied with this purchase.
