Just ordered the most expensive laptop I never thought I'd need.

I think @Clintster is referring to this?

That's what I was looking for! How did you find that? Sorry to ask, having a mental capacity day here

EDIT: ah, found it, it's because I had my browser window limited across half the screen, and it's cropping the top bar of the configurator window putting it in mobile view, so I don't see the Overview, configurator and Detailed Specification tabs, as soon as I maximise the window it's there.

That was bugging me!!!

Thanks everyone, To be honest I want a laptop (DTR), I want AMD and I want the Nvidia GPU with the most amount of VRAM so I haven't much choice in the matter.

It's going to be a beast. I don't think there are many laptops that'll out perform it

Certainly if last years model is anything to go by, which I believe it is, it will likely be one of the most powerful on the market.

I don't think there will be ANY laptops that outperform it.

Pity they don't do a choice of screen size, I'd have liked a 17 or 18 inch.

Just wondering while waiting for my laptop.
Will I be able to easily change from using it's power when I'm doing intensive stuff to low power when just using it for web surfing, watching Youtube etc?
Is it even worth putting it on a low setting when not needing the power?

It's windows, so will automatically adjust the power settings on battery.

I won't ever use it on battery, I mean powered but using it lightly

Ah, then you can set power profiles in the master driver which is called control center on this model.

Do I have to visit the bios each time to do that?

 

[Clintster]

Or is it easy to switch between the profiles when stop working and go over to rest and relaxation mode.

It's a driver, drivers run within windows.

The GPU only has a MUX switch, not advanced optimus. so If you're in dGPU mode, the GPU will always be on and wont sleep when its not being used, you'll need to set it to iGPU mode and restart the laptop, then the Nvida GPU will only fire up when it's call upon, but this will be in a passthrough mode so you'll have marginally less performance. As for the CPU, you can adjust the power settings, but laptop CPU's generally have a low base clock for this exact reason. you should be fine leaving it in performance or balanced mode
