not just that but he responds and offers objective insight......on purchasing/investing on a laptop that we're all going to be spending a lot of our time with......he pairs QOL VS % of use........be it % of gaming......i primarily game and watch vids on the second screen with DP not many laptops have display port support on 1660ti or rtx. Let alone i have HDMI too for a tv or 3rd screen.....A huge plus for me....Some factors i never really considered until jarrod told me about multiple screen support, as something i personally would need to look into. In theory id probably be able to maxmize my wifi by putting a google tv/appletv/chrome cast on my tv.......so my laptop can maxmize the mb/s it can suck through the wifi straw. Vs streaming mb/s through the laptop directly......i mean its only really important for downloads.......not gaming or using discord.....i may have to consider this though......when further from the router......and the overall mb/s declines to 5mb/s at times.......id def want to have a cast/etc smart tv......vs hdmi streaming to my tv while gaming/in discord.etc. Esp if im streaming live sports or etc live tv........smh.......bc trying to transition off of cable into pure streaming in 2020 and unlimited data with ISP........imean.......30mb/s is pretty meh......but my laptop only gets 12 mb/s from my current setup from wifi......until i spend upwards of 500$ on a new modem+router combo......i wish i had 50mb/s at least but.......ik somepeople only got 50 megabit......or less.......i mean 1000megabit would be ideal for a larger household esp if cable is out of the picture and all that bs ass hd/4k streaming is going down.....Im trying to get in on the "unlimited" bc i want to be grandfathered in.......incase they ever stop offering it.....heart goes out to australia for their ISP problems.......and now bc of the fires prayers up. If it affects his channel for the time being......i wont be crying for content. There are definitely more important things in life. But jarrod really does help contribute to our QOL improvement process.

I want to thank you, for all your reviews and in-depth tests. You do a great work and deserve more followers. From my point of view the best latpop is the best balanced in power, temperature, design and price. I think that the Acer helios 300, and the lenovo y540 are the real winners this year from this point of view. The only think that always hurt me is the fact that Acer rise the price of the Helios 300 in my country, and because of this, is not a big deal, but is still a great laptop.

Thank you so much for making this video! I was on the fence on choosing between Asus GX502GW and MSI GS75, where I was able to find the latter laptop sellingfor $2500 AUD. However, after viewing all your videos relating to GX502GW and seeing the overwhelming positive notes given to it, I decided to go with this laptop over MSI. The only downsides for going for GX502GW is the fact that it costs $3100 AUD (cheapest I could find atm) which, it goes over my initial budget of $3000 AUD. Also, I'd probably need to get another stick of RAM which would cost additional $100 AUD. Unfortunately, ever since the release of GX502GW in Australia, I didn't see this laptop going on sale anywhere so that's a bit of a shame. Though, thanks for your reviews, I believe that it might be a worthwhile investment where it'll suit my gaming and portability needs.

Jarrod, thank you for your reviews! They helped me to get detailed laptop testing results and a much valued opinion on certain laptops that I have considered to buy for personal use. Thank you for doing reviews at quite a high pace through the year, must have been a nightmare to compile so much data so quick at times :) You always had a review coming up or already on the channel of any laptop I had in mind through 2019! Having tried Razer Blade 17 (2080MaxQ) I did not like the very shallow keyboard, I found it even worse than on my old Razer Blade 14, plus size and weight wise this was too much for me and needed something smaller and lighter for travels. One thing to note, gaming performance on it was phenomenal. So my choice for 2019 was between Aero and later (thanks to your channel) Asus GX502GW! On Aero, again, personally I had ergonomics issues with edge to edge full keyboard in 15inch form factor device... Simply uncomfortable. Great battery life and good CPU performance though. But, Asus GX502GW was my choice in the end! Now good few months and I love it. My machine can undervolt a little bit beyond your test unit and I also had it re-pasted to improve thermal performance. 2070 MaxP and G-Sync screen is best compact (sub 2Kg, 15 inch) on the go gaming experience I ever had! :)

I have to say, after seeing the reviews from you and other sources, I pulled the trigger on the predator helios 300 and couldn't be more happy. Sure, the fans sound like it's doing to take off if I game on it, but I'm using it connected to a monitor in lieu of a desktop and I can take it with me when I travel. It has a full number pad (Important to me) and enough screen to use excel capably. Anxiously awaiting your CES coverage because I feel like AMD is going to have some really compelling options in 2-3 years.

I totally agree with your pick for Beat Value Gaming Laptop. I picked myself up a 17" version of the Acer Predator Helios 300 (9750H, 1660Ti, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, RGB KB) for about $1450. And I had just barely missed the sale for it too, I believe it was going for $1250 around Black Friday, whixh was an insane deal. I've had it for about 3 weeks now and man do I love this thing. The extra screen is awesome, something I'd happily trade off for portability anyday. I don't think there's any way for me to go back to a smaller screen now. But I owe my thanks to you tho Jarrod, there were so many options and it was so hard to choose, but watching your videos made it so much easier to choose. Keep up the great work man. Cheers to a great 2020! 👍

For me, the laptop of the year was the Lenovo Y740 17.3" (RTX 2080 Max-Q version) Excellent and active cooling at a relatively low noise level, it handles heavy games wonderfully, it's great for creative work, the 144hz monitor is clean, bright and colourful and it has 1TB of SSD Storage, what's not to like. The downside with it was its price point. I'm sure you're able to get something cheaper in the same category, but since I got it on black friday, where it was around 500-600 dollars off in Denmark, I couldn't really factor that in. Else, it would've been way too expensive.

Hey Jarrod! I've got three absolutely huge questions! Please answer them! Which would be better and how would they be different, Getting the Helios 300 With the RTX 2060 version and getting the triton 500 RTX 2060 version. Which is better and how are they different? On amazon the helios 300 with the RTX 2060 Is a tad more expensive. Second question: Using the Elgato hd60S, can you record gameplay using only one laptop, like play and record on the same laptop, no other monitors involved? Third and final question, is having a moniter linked to your laptop good, will it be faster or better? Thanks again Jarrod!, you're the best
@JarrodsTech 4 жыл бұрын
Helios will probably have higher CPU power limit as its a bit thicker, undervolt is higher out of the box, so will probably perform better. Triton has Thunderbolt, depends if you care about that, slightly thinner and different design with upside down motherboard makes upgrades harder, I'd go Helios. Sorry no experience with any of the elgato stuff so not sure how it works, my guess is you connect it via HDMI or some display output so the signal goes through it? If that's the case may need external monitor, but I do not know for sure. Using an external monitor will boost game FPS though, as this bypasses Optimus. Most laptops have Optimus, so the Intel integrated graphics is wired to the display and the Nvidia GPU processes the game and sends the frames via the Intel GPU to the display, using an external monitor bypasses this process as most gaming laptops have display outputs wired directly to the Nvidia graphics.

I own the Modern 14 $899 model that has the 10th gen i5, 8gbs of ram, and an MX250. At this price point it is perfect for a college student (like myself) wanting it for school and light gaming. The alternative to this is the Razer Blade Stealth 13 which costs $1300 for an i7, 16gbs of ram, and an MX150. Razer Blade Stealth 13 is a better laptop but considering the price difference I had to go with the Modern 14 and it's getting the job done. Edit: The Modern 14 models have two fans unlike the Prestige 14 models which have one so heating won't be an issue with the Modern 14. Don't buy the Prestige 14 model unless you plan on undervolting.

Really wish you coulda snuck a Metabox Prime-V review in, in time for this. Am just about to get myself an Xmas present, and although I like the style of others in the price range better, for value for money (and 12mths interest free) the Metabox Alpha-X NH58RD is what I'm just about to buy. But I certainly considered the Scar III, Triton 500, Auros 15WA, Apex 15, based on your reviews, and the aforementioned Prime V. But don't think G-Sync and Thunderbolt will be that big a deal for my needs. The bottom line here is, I couldn't have made such an informed decision without your channel, Jarrod. It was a minefield at first, but going through your videos helped me understand what I was really looking for. Love your work mate, here's to 2020!
