Is this Laptop Worth it?

Go to solution Solved by Sorenson,

It’s been pretty well reviewed by HardwareCanucks and Dave2d. I haven’t seen the one with the 1660 ti reviewed, but that should be pretty capable. The 1660 ti is a very capable 1080p card. Also, Costco is amazing with their return policy, if you don’t like it just bring it back.

Hello, I'm currently looking for a laptop to buy, and I stumbled across this one (in Costco of all places). I was wondering if it's a good deal? Are there any estimates on how much batter life I could get out of it?

I plan on using it for gaming (such as Sea of Thieves at medium settings etc) and schoolwork.

I'm probably just not searching correctly but reviews on this laptop seem pretty scarce

Thanks

Get the ASUS GA502DU instead. It has similar specs (worse cpu), 120hz screen and a great 8 hour battery life.
