I found an acer nitro 5 with 1440p display and an RTX 3070ti for a crazy price around ~1000$. It sounds too good to be true and I suspect aggressive corner cutting. Is it an actual crazy good deal? Should I buy it? Should I leave it and keep looking for ASUS deals?

I can't in conscience see a recommendation for Dell and not complain about my awful experiences with Dell computers. Though, to be fair, my bad experiences have always been related to running Linux on laptops or customizing desktops. Both have not been a good time.

I love my Asus laptop, though. I have the 2021 ROG Zephyrus G15, and it slaps. Runs great on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed.
