999, if it comes with rtx 4060 fully powered this would be a good deal. my guess is though it will come with rtx 4050 at the 999 price point, or a lower powered 4060. tsk tsk, these companies never learn.

With Hawk point? Early next year.

Such a lame update IMO, I'll wait for Strix Point for an actual real upgrade: Zen 5+5c + RDNA3.

Hi,
Doubt it but looking at the new acer inlet/ outlet design plus dual fans does
Some others do the same crappy bottom inlet and it's not a laptop seeing it will burn up cutting off the intake
Pulling air from the top and bottom is neat.
This is my 7k series design doubt this will change.

Upgraded AI, 16 TOPS vs 10 TOPS and that's about all.
