Hello, I am looking to buy a new laptop, and I noticed that the GIGABYTE G5 with rtx 3060 is currently at available at a very good price for me at ~900$. I cannot find a similar specced device for that price anywhere. Is it good enough to buy, or should I wait for another better deal?

Also is amazon safe for this?

Are you in the US?
What G5 model is it specifically you’re looking at ? This one, the KD i5 one??

Doing a quick search, the price doesn’t sound terrible for that particular one, but maybe someone with more recent gaming laptop experience can chime in.

If using Amazon, make sure it’s shipped AND sold by amazon. They’ll usually cover other things but it can be a hassle. Their return policy for computers isn’t great and only covers DOA within 30 days, and if it’s a subtle problem like overheating or something they may test it and if they don’t see the problem charge you a 15% restocking fee. After that, everything is warranty from gigabyte. So just be aware.

I see one on Best Buy that has a better GPU for $920 US. The one I see on Amazon is from a seller I don’t know.
