    I wait on "new" Dell Inspiront 15inch with hexacore i7 coffe lake + minimal Nvidia GTX 1060.
    Now is on amazan for preorder quadcore i5 + 1060, or hexacore i7 + 1050ti :-(
    Why only these two configurations :D
    Cmon Dell :)

    The CPU is the hottest part and the chassis can't handle much more than the i7 7700HQ+1060MQ as it is... More cores, higher speeds, more heat means something's gotta give.

    Amazon is a terrible place to buy some things especially these. Just by calling Dell you can bargain a lower price not to mention coupons that are available online all the time. Amazon is pretty costly sometimes. I never buy laptops on Amazon.

    My 7567 refurb last year I got directly from Dell $700 after taxes I7/1080P-IPS/1050Ti/1TB HDD was much more expensive on Amazon to the point where most of the negative reviews on Amazon was due to the Price there. Granted I got a free 4K 7577 with a 512GB nVME SSD & 1TB HDD as an upgrade for uneven core temps on the 7567 but that’s a different story on Dell’s great support.

    Dell’s SAVE12 coupon, 1080P G7 w/I7 & 1060 for ~$950. Probably can bargain for maybe $30-50 more.
