Gaming laptop

pemtca

Hello

I'm looking for a gaming laptop, budget around €1500, and have narrowed it down on Curry's to these

https://www.currys.ie/ieen/s_action/compare/10224278-10224271-10220310-10222571.html

Just wondering if there are any better deals out there? Brain fried at this stage 😁 Would prefer 17" but haven't seen any within budget

Thanks

This Medion is a great option. The company is owned by Lenovo. Don't be afraid of the brand-name at all.

3070 card

5800h cpu

165Hz 1440p 17 inch screen - good quality screen a decent step up from 1080p. 1440p is the gaming sweetspot for the 3070 card

It's this laptop but with an AMD cpu (which is as good easily as the intel and better in most all areas really)

easily beats your other options on value really even if you have to go 100 euro more

Looks a great machine for the money tbh.

Hello again

Just got a message from Amazon to say this is undeliverable and they're issuing a refund 🙄

Any other bargains out there, preferable not from Amazon 😂

Budget €1500 17" preferable

Many thanks

bummer.

"undeliverable" - what does that mean?

will take a look.

that was a great spec for the price - will be hard to find similar I suspect.

it's saying 5 in stock on the listing now at a higher price - £1400

I'd be trying to get back onto Amazon asking why your order was cancelled and why it's undeliverable when it's still on sale?

it's dispatched and sold by Amazon

the same laptop in on laptopsdirect for €1668

saying that it's a reduced price for cyber monday so not sure how long prices are valid

It's actually still very good value at that price

that same laptop is selling under another brand at over 2000€

Glasso thanks a million for your help on this. I've contacted Amazon chat, apparently the original was damaged in transit (I don't know why they couldn't have just told me that originally) and they've agreed to send a replacement at the same price.

Good result in the end.
