Yeah so far this thing has pretty much checked all the boxes and no one has convinced me not to get it. About to watch the ltt video on it ?

Ive thought about it. I'm going to a larger university and living in dorms so I don't want to have a $1000 pc in my room that could get stolen. Plus this way it's easier to go to LAN parties with the mates

Looking for a solid all around laptop for college. Budget: $2000 I want to avoid the gamer aesthetic as much as possible. I like laptops that are subtle with no bright colors or lights. Smaller than 17" is a must. I'd like something with a 1080p display. I don't see the point of 4k on a laptop. Waste of battery life imo. I'd prioritize a quality display with a high refresh rate, low input lag, and excellent color scale any day over a higher resolution. Games like cs go and dayz are my go-to these days. I think something like a gtx 1060 paired with the newer kaby lakes would be right up my alley. M.2 SSD support. I like fast load times. I've looked at the Gigabyte Aero 15 and the Dell XPS 15. I lack personal experience with either so maybe you guys could tell me your opinions?
