Hi Folks,

Appreciate any thoughts on the following. Work laptop but may as well get something I can game on given it's not a huge jump in cost.

Deciding between following - open to discussing other options, price cap €1k

Are you limited to brick and mortar? There's better value laptops online, can get at least 30% more powerful laptop at that price online.

The only decent gaming laptop in the bunch is the first one with the GTX1650.
