Value of this laptop?

[TheNaitsyrk]

Hi there,

 

If this is the wrong sub forum please remove.

 

I have this machine and I'm just wondering if it's value, would anyone be able to advise?

 

Laptop: MSI Titan GT77HX V13, RTX 4090 175W, 24 core i9 13980HX OC: P-Cores 5.8Ghz 3 cores and 5.2Ghz 5 cores and E-Cores 4.3Ghz, 192GB of RAM @5600Mhz @3600 (chipset limit),

12TB (3x4TB) of NVMe SN850X, 17'3 inch 4K 144Hz MiniLED screen, WiFi 7 upgrade.

Well I can only say value is something subjective. Try to find the same device online, if yours is used, find a used one, if u cant find a used one, think about how long u had the device, and if its used. like 6months old, unused, -30% used, 6 months old, -40-50%, used, 1 month - 20%, it really depends.

its price is what someone would we willing to buy it for

Check eBay sold listings for your region. In the US, I'm seeing completed listings for between $2,500 and $3,500 with a few outliers on the high end.

Not used much, protective plastics still in tact. Upgraded RAM from 32GB to 192GB and NVMe from 2TB to 12TB and from WiFi 6E to WiFi 7.

Also, much appreciated it's about what expected. Probably about £3000-3300 for it because of upgrades

Im guessing the new price without upgrades was about...6k ish?
+ it would ofc be interesting what nvme and ram exactly, but in general the nvmes in that range where abt 300-400, the ram was about 500-700
how long did you have the laptop for, like when did u buy it?

because its release was 2023 somwhere, i couldnt find anything specific, sadly. but if u had it for like 5 months, with protective covers id try 4.5k and then go down with the price if u cant sell.

if u dont need the money and have time,stay higher, if u really need money, RIGHT NOW, go all the way down. 

just a personal question, y would you 1. buy a gaming laptp for that much if a normal gaing pc with those specs would be cheaper? and 2. jesus, what did u need 12tb and 192GB RAM for

£5299 laptop, £900 NVMes and £730 RAM and £30 WiFi card.

Had the laptop for like 6-7 months with sometimes weeks of not using it

My PC is similar btw, all in the sig. I thought I'd lug it around but never happened, ROG Ally came out lol got 3080 XG Mobile

probably gonna wanna take those nvmes out cause i dont think that raises the value of the laptop, just leave the original 2tb

 

as for the rams theres not much use for those so just leave the 192gb in

 

itll take quite awhile to sell a laptop like that but im sure there would be someone thats interested

the laptop or the pc? cause no way in hell is any normal person gonna be able to carry that behemoth of a pc

 

bros custom loops are probably heavier than the internals + case combined especially since theyre filled with water and that stuffs heavy

 

10-20kg for a regular pc is just fine not particularly heavy and even i could lug that around as long as its small enough and isnt a pain to carry around due to size but bros pc is probably >50kg

 

 

personally i wouldnt bother with a laptop if i wanted power mainly due to laptop hardware being gimped by bad cooling and trash bioses/boards that cant overclock for shit, i mean ddr5 8800 is possible on some high bin desktop intel cpus with 9000-10000 on amd apus, laptops can only dream of that at <6000 due to boardlimit and probably untweakable garbage bios

 

i mean youve dealt with this shit yourself right? you have to stick to an older bios just to keep the cpu and gpu at full ppwer due to new bioses gimping their power limits even though this is a 6000$ laptop and you are supposed to be able to do whatever the fuck you want to it without having to worry about it being gimped by bullshit bios limits

 

as an oc nut i hate laptops with a passion with the only exception being very lightweight small and thin laptops particularly ryzen laptops due to good igpu, small form factor, and good battery since 4000 and up are very power efficient. these still have a valid use being able to be thrown in a backpack or easily carried around whilst having a long lasting battery for non gaming stuff and even the capability to do some light gaming like minecraft

 

 

if i wanted portable power id build a thin case to stick some pc hardware in and attatch a screen or 3 onto that maybe even a kayboard + touchpad and an array of batteries to turn it into a diy laptop of sorts except that itd crush any gaming laptop if geared with top spec (7800x3d/7950x3d + 4090) whilst doing it for cheaper with the only caveat being having to build the thing yourself and that gets complicated when you involve screens and batteries

 

definitely gonna try this when i have some money and if i do get money (probably when i start getting good at forex trading and not blowing the god damn account due to bad trades or having no capability of preserving a small account) ill probably be getting alot of it and in a somewhat short time frame so yeah gonna do what any oc nut would do and use it for absolutely everything i wanna do and oc the shit out of be it mobos cpus cooling systems voltmods trial by fire (murdering hardware) testing etc. and for me in particular a portable gaming pc cause if im not gonna shoot for subzero < -100c on the cpu gpu and rams theres literally no reason to have a completely fixed desktop, but thatll come if i have the time cause planning and building something like that is gonna take lots and lots of time unlike buying a crapload of hardware and ocing the shit out of em till i eventually hit hardware limit and get bored =p   and yeah things get boring once you realize you cant go much further even if you bin cpus

 

Spoiler

welp ive hit 3300 ddr3 now on bloomfied absolutely obliterating every single bloomfield hwbot record be it ambient or ln2 and i can still go higher with a better binned cpu and subzero alongside xeon w for toying around with 3000+ ecc and dual/triple channel so this wont get boring for quite some time

 

but once subzero gets involved or i have to search for a golden chip that can do 4800 uncore at 1.6/1.7v vtt this will probably get very boring due to the amount of time needed to bin all those cpus not to mention needing some deep pockets to buy all those cpus in the first place alongside subzero gear mainly the pot and probably the ln2 if i dont use poor mans liquid nitrogen (dice + 99% IPA/acetone)

 

this i7 930 is nowhere near being a golden chip, sure its above average but not what youd consider to be a good chip and especially not a golden chip, dont think this thing can even do 4.5 at 1.4v even if i disabled ht, so yeah long way to go in terms of cpu which means i wont be getting bored of this platform for quite awhile =p

 

deep pockets will just allow me to buy tons of cpus and better boards alongside better rams but i still have to bin the things myself aka spend quite abit of time so not even money will bypass the time requirement
