    wow !

    cheapest 1060 ever ?

      That processor is shite though!

        Do you mean the i5?

        If so, I'd be interested to here why you think so. It's a HQ so you are getting a 'proper' quad core CPU. That, paired with the 6GB 1060 is a pretty good combo for 1080p gaming, especially at this price.

      • Zenskas on 18/11/2017 - 20:45
        +5

        Not at all a shite CPU for this machine. In fact it matches or slightly edges out a desktop i5-2500K in both single threaded and multithreaded performance. Minimal gains in quad core CPU's have been had even several generations after the 2500K. You can't tell me that is not enough to pair well with the GTX 1060 on a 1080p display. If this laptop was rocking a GTX 1080 then maybe you'd want something better but the CPU will still play any games at 1080p quite smoothly.

      Cheapest 1060 laptop so far with good quantity.

      IIRC ~6 months ago, Acer had a clearout sale, 1060 for ~$1.1k, but also 1070 for ~1.1k. It was crazy, but there were only 1 or 2 models of each in stock.

    Seems like they're trying to get rid of stock for the 8th gen coming soon.

    • oscarmanutdfan on 20/11/2017 - 14:39

      I thought I read that the HQ variant gaming laptop CPU aren't due till much later in 2018?

      • not a bot on 22/11/2017 - 23:06

        I heard that the HQ variants will get AMD iGPU's, I'm not sure what will happen if they also have dedicated nvidia gpus tho.

    Would like an option for a ram upgrade for a couple penny's more.

    But hey, you get a fair bit of laptop for $1360~

    • andreussi on 18/11/2017 - 18:40

      Almost 100% that you are able to upgrade the RAM on your own on this machine easily. So if you ever find yourself needing to do that it won't be much of a hassle.

      • MindGrenadius on 18/11/2017 - 20:08

        after watching a video its actually only one screw - thats amazing for ease of upgrading really.

        but more to the point, still a shame you couldn't just get it standard with 16gb

    • solidussnake on 18/11/2017 - 18:53

      And what would you need the extra ram for ?? Just curious..

      • worldwidehappiness on 18/11/2017 - 21:30

        I'd use it for stock trading. Have about 20 Chrome tabs open, three added monitors running, trading programs open, charting packages open, OneNote and Excel open. I'm always hovering around 8gb. Sometimes get messages to close programs. So I'd need 16gb.

    • FireRunner on 18/11/2017 - 18:54

      I saw that as well.
      I think because on the dell website its customisable with graphics card, SSD, HDD, possibly touch?

    • FireRunner on 18/11/2017 - 20:21

    The GPU is 1060 Max Q design which is slower 10-15% compared to normal 1060 laptop

    • FabMan on 18/11/2017 - 21:45

          So its lighter!

    • juzz0 on 19/11/2017 - 00:46

      Apparently the Max Q version is cooler than the original 1060 which is strange because this project https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Fu-2F09vAsA did not have that many fans.

    • Ciccillo on 19/11/2017 - 09:11

      Actually it does not make any sense advertising a product as gaming products, then dealing with the hardware, downgrade it (compared to similar desktop) to avoid thermal throttling and save power consumption. If it is a real gaming product i wanna a gaming product,not something 'geld'. That's my 5 cents..

      • FabMan on 19/11/2017 - 14:11
        +1

        It does make sense, try thinking about it for a moment.

        People game on smart phones, which often contain greatly powered downed CPUs and GPUs as to what is out there, but manufacturers promote gaming on the phones and lots of gaming takes place on smart phones.

        These light weight notebooks are very capable 1080p gaming machines. For gaming, they are in between truly portable devices (smart phones) and full desktop PCs. Many people travel about and cannot utilize a full desktop and don't want to lug around a heavy laptop. This particular 1060 Max-Q version is more powerful than the mobile 1050 Ti by over 25% but consumes marginally less power, generates less heat and the cooling system produces less noise. I travel to work with a light weight notebook that has a 960m in it, I can game on it nicely, but it is still light weight and professional looking for my job, this 1060 Max-Q is a good step up from that.

  • blablabla23 on 18/11/2017 - 23:28

    Shipping & Payment says delivery time is "usually between 9-13 business days", but eBay's estimated delivery is between 6 Dec and 5 Jan.

    • mrhorse on 18/11/2017 - 23:43

      same concern here

    • Vague on 19/11/2017 - 08:06
      +2

      I had a similar concern, and asked Dell via Ebay and got this response (with regards to if I'll get it before December 15):

      I believe the longer estimated delivery time is eBay's estimation, taking into account the item being sent from overseas and the busy holiday season. We do our best to get items delivered as efficiently as possible, and we generally have an estimated 14-16 working day delivery time. Unfortunately we are not able to guarantee when the delivery will be, however, I believe there is a good chance that if ordered tomorrow, you should receive the item by the 15th of December.

      Please note that with all orders there is a 3-4 working day processing time, and once the order has been processed by our Head Office, you will be able to track the progress of your order being built on the Dell website. When the item is due for delivery this order will be updated with an SCS number which you would be able to use to track the delivery with our courier Startrack.

      17-20 working days total makes it pretty risky so I've decided to hold off.

    Been holding out to buy the best possible laptop for around this price. Should i continue to hold out until the black Friday or even boxing day sales. Or are the sales more hype than bargain and i should pull the pin on this

  • MegaMane on 19/11/2017 - 07:33

    Created an account to say thanks, I've been lurking for a while and this looks like the best value for money.

  • alebox on 19/11/2017 - 08:37

    damn ordered the 1050ti in a recent deal. Does the battery life decrease due to the better 1060 or are they comparable if not under load?

    edit: saw that the 7567 has a 74Whr vs the 56Whr in this deal. Pretty significant difference so I think I'll stick with the 7567 :) While you get a better performance with this one for not much more, I think I would find the longer battery life for non-gaming use to have greater utility since I don't game as much (might change though given the juice!)

  • surfnsnorlax on 19/11/2017 - 10:10

    This or hold out for another deal similar to 7567 www.ozbargain.com.au/node/341510, would look to upgrade to 16gb ram and add hdd to this

    • alebox on 19/11/2017 - 10:35

      not sure if it helps you but in my comment above, the deciding factor for me was battery life. the 7567 has 74Whr and the 7577 only has 56 so there is a material difference

      • gascar on 19/11/2017 - 12:24

        The 56 is a new quick charge battery and up to 80% for an hr charge.

        Id prefer a 74 battery for on the go juice though.

        Pulled the trigger on this 1060 laptop.
        Ticks all the boxes and stylish too.

    • FireRunner on 19/11/2017 - 18:24

      You can get the same laptop as above except with 128GB SSD instead of 256GB for $1519.20 also at Dell eBay here.
      Its actually the laptop I'm using and I'm very happy with it.
      I would go for the 1060 version over this since its cheaper and better graphics card. The i7 is nice but not entirely necessary. Ram is easily upgradeable and HDD would be easy to install as well.

      Its a pretty powerful machine. I'm using the older, GTX 1050 TI model and it runs Fallout 4 and Dishonored 2 great. I'm sure it can handle civilization, maybe not maxed out (I've never played this so no idea how demanding it is).

    • Zealouz on 21/11/2017 - 19:16

      should be VR compatible, but given it is only a maxwell card and 1060, wouldn't recommend to play VR with this laptop.
      This one got a VR score of 5.9, the average VR score for VR compatible machine is 6.0. (according to sources).

          Onsite, they just replaced the laptop speaker with a new part. I'm not sure it actually was a hardware issue as the audio distortion issue has happened a few times since. But it was pretty minor.

    Can someone tell me if the same laptop but with i7-7700HQ Quad Core, 16GB ram + + 1TB 5400RPM Hard Drive for discounted price of $1,999 (from $2,499) is a good deal? Essentially better CPU, more RAM and HDD on a 1060 gfx card… is it better to pay an extra $600 for it?

    Just got the confirmation email.

    “Fingerprint Reader Not Included”

    Sad!

      Got one from eBay just now. Don't think I've got Dell's final invoice yet.
