10STRWD
Stumbled upon the code. Still can't believe I found this. Historical low for a top end premium laptop. Stocks are very low so get in quick.
Yes, this is overpriced; Yes, you are paying a lot of premium for the rog name and the second touch screen that wont be useful to most people; Yes, the 3.9k L7P deal (cheers dealbot!) will have better performance at least gaming wise; And yes, despite all this, it is still a hell of a deal. Lets make it clear: this laptop have always been short of stock-not just in aus but all round the world-and as far as I know there have never been any sort of sale with this laptop, ever. Due to how unique it is and how low a stock it have, its almost always sold out very quick.
Its now avalible, in the most powerful configuration-with the updated 5980hx (better binned and better clock speeds) chips instead of 5900hx on previous models with a code that takes 500$ off. What can I say? If you always wanted this laptop, there is no better time.
