        All these resellers appear to be taking a data feed from Dicker Data, and yes, Dicker's price is absurdly low atm. Synnex and Ingram Micro, the other 2 big disties, are the "normal" buy price, which is closer to $4k.

        Even large bid pricing wouldnt be close to what DD currently has it at. I will ask my AM there tomorrow if it's an error or correct.

        • icecream on 08/01/2023 - 12:45

          I can understand why you double-quoted "normal" :)

          There is little movtivation for disties and sub-disties to correct pricing.

          Pretty much like petrol, pump-up high quickly, extremely reluctant to drop.

            @icecream: The Dicker price for the 6J9L0PA and a Seagate HDD bundle is $4094 ex. So unless theyre trying to sell a 2TB USB HDD for nearly $2500 I can guarantee this price is an error and was never going to be honoured.

        • jnewau on 09/01/2023 - 09:15

          Replying to myself for anyone still reading this thread. The price was an error.

          • ozvictor on 09/01/2023 - 09:19

            @jnewau: So will they honor the price error or cancelling the orders

            • ubcool on 09/01/2023 - 09:25

          Its a mobile 3050ti levels of performance at best even with extra vram, you arent getting a mux on this neither. a 1k 3060 deal kills this in gaming even with subpar cpu.

          I wouldnt pay the premium honestly if you dont need the a2000 for non gaming workloads.

          • Lonewolf1983 on 08/01/2023 - 11:09

            @Brrrrt: I bought for the cpu specs, and a2000 will be decent for photo editing and AI
            May give a whirl with an egpu too given TB4

    I bought there (free shipping code automatically applies)
    $1461 from a non sketchy supplier was my preference

    Note is a single 32gb module so youll need to slot in a 2nd for optimal performance

        For dual channel operation, more performance

          DDR5 is 2 channels per DIMM so that would actually make it quad channel.

    Notebookcheck just posted a review of the 4K IPS model:

    https://www.notebookcheck.net/HP-ZBook-Power-15-G9-laptop-re…

    VERDICT

    Pros
    + robust metal case
    + good system performance
    + 2x SSD and 2x SO-DIMM
    + Wi-Fi 6E and Thunderbolt 4
    + long battery life
    + good input devices
    + efficient and matte 4K display

    Cons
    - only a small performance increase compared to (11th-gen) predecessor
    - bad speakers
    - soldered WLAN module; no WWAN option
    - no SD card reader
    - display has a red tint in the state of delivery

    The ZBook Power 15 G9 is an entry-level workstation, targeting users who need a reliable performance and professional graphics cards. Aside from the processor, our test configuration already corresponds to the maximum configuration with the 4K display, the Nvidia RTX A2000, and abundant storage, which of course also drives up the price. Like its predecessor, the ZBook Power G9 also offers a solid performance in many areas. But particularly in the CPU performance, the results again are not always constant. The situation has slightly stabilized with some BIOS updates, but the workstation is still unable to make full use of the real potential of the Core i7-12700H. 

    Particularly in terms of the performance development, the ZBook Power 15 G9 is unable to reach top values, but thanks to some BIOS updates, the CPU performance has stabilized to a large extent. After a calibration, the low power 4K display offers a good image quality and allows for a long battery life.

    However, to be fair we also have to mention that the entry-level workstations from the competitors, such as the Lenovo ThinkPad P15v or Dell Precision 5560 don't deliver much more performance either, with the three models performing at eye level overall. The 4K panel is basically a very good choice, since it runs very efficiently without driving up the power consumption, but you should calibrate it if possible.

    Bought the 4k one, haven't got a reply about ETA but the same model on auspcmarket has an ETA of late Jan (confirmed by email), so I assume similar for these guys. There would have to be more stock available as this is a 12th gen new model, but I'll wait and see.
    If the i7 one didn't have such a poor gamut I would've just bought it as it's in stock. ☹️

    If you didn’t get the UHD 4K one (SKU: 6J9L0PA), you can consider the FHD touch screen i9-12900HK one (SKU: 6J9K9PA), it is only $1498.95 on megabuy, $1563 on Shopping Express.

      How bad would the screen be on that one? Just for e.g. watching movies, web browsing etc.

      The UHD 4K was a no-brainer. Screen is much worse but his one still seems worth it.

      are they trustworthy suppliers?

    Worth trying for the 4K at PCmegamart with back order or do we all think it’ll get cancelled?

    Otherwise I’ll go shopping express.

      Is PCmegamart legit?

      • sav11 on 08/01/2023 - 21:45

        I ordered the FHD from Shopping Express before I saw PC Megamart had the UHD on backorder. Figured I can cancel it so tried to order from PC Megamart but got an error on the shipping page saying to email them.

        Seems like PC Megamart are legit, an agent replied to my email pretty fast on a Sunday night and is going to send me an invoice to pay on that.

        Hope it doesn't get cancelled. Now I don't know whether to cancel my Shopping Express order or not in case the PC Megamart one gets cancelled.

    CES 2023 has announced some significant tech improvements that make the RRP of this today overpriced:

    • Raptor Lake 13th-gen HX 24C/32T processors (vs 14C/20T offered here)
    • mini LED high-refresh/brightness LCDs with 1024 dimming zones
    • RTX 4000 dGPUs

    Also:

    • 16" 16:10 LCDs (vs 15.6" 16:9 here) has been the norm for premium systems for several years now

    So maybe this deal is about right price?

      fair to say that given this model was listed RRP at what $4k - its safe to say any new model will be at least as much.
