Yeah they never changed it for what, 3yrs?

Can't really put it anywhere else with the edgeless display. Much rather have no bezels but I also wouldn't use the webcam even once.

Yeah, the "infinity display".

HTC teasing a new higher resolution VR headset for CES.

Any good gaming laptops coming out in the next 2-3 months that I should be looking at? How about any that’s out now? Budget of $2000.

CES is next week so pay attention to that for what will be coming out soon in that regard. Multiple new gaming laptops will be at CES.

UH mentioned wait for CES but I dont see why unless you are waiting for new 8th gen CPUs. Even then you still get 4 cores with the 7th gens. No new gpus are out until Spring 2018.
Look into the Dell Inspiron 7000 15 Gaming laptops with a GTX 1060 and i7 for $1K.
Why do you want to purchase a gaming laptop with such a high budget?

The Switch has revived my interest in gaming. I've been taking weeks off at a time from PC gaming, still a half-finished AC Origins I haven't touched in two weeks, but now I can't get enough Mario Odyssey and Mario Kart. I've done a few hours of Zelda (first four shrines) but need more downtime to really focus on that one. Looks very intimidating.

It’s not that I necessarily want to spend that much, that’s how much I have set aside for this purchase. I’ll be glad to spend like 1200, but if I can get a better bang for anywhere up to 2000, then I’ll definitely consider.

Don't those use the U series CPUs and not the HQs? I don't see why you would compare those U series in those laptops to the HQ series in gaming laptops.
Anyway, he, as well as myself, would probably rather see gaming benches than compute (geekbench) benches

8th gen HQ is 6 core on mobile just like desktop. Can't really compare the 4 core 7th gen to it (and it's not even out so 
). And from what I understand, the additional cores for laptops is really beneficial. I don't know why anyone spending that kind of money wouldn't get the latest and greatest.
Those are U vs U benchmarks, exact same processors 7th gen vs 8th. You guys gotta remember mobile is nothing like desktop and actually sees large performance and thermal/power improvements year over year, especially these days.

I have an opportunity to move out of accounting into IT for better money with a promise of paid schooling. What path of courses/certs would you all suggest for someone in the networking environment, assume I know nothing about it?

There ya go, that wasn't so hard!

It is a gaming laptop.
Who the fckk cares about 6 cores? The engines aren't even optimized for it. Esp at that low bandwidth.
Please educate yourself. Please.
