    EDIT:
    Appears this unit is no longer available.

    Yeah, I know I know... it's Cyberpowerpc. However, I do have a secondhand cyberpower laptop and I haven't had any troubles with it, and nor did the person who owned it before me. I do know (by word of mouth) that their customer service is pretty bad, but this seems like a pretty good deal if anyone wants to take the risk.

    Anywho: 4th of July sale on the Tracer II

    https://www.cyberpowerpc.com/system/July-4th-Tracer-II-15-GTX-1070

    If you get the configuration to be $1300 or more, you can take another 5% off with the code: NB3

    The configuration I would personally use would be:
    i7 7700hq
    gtx 1070
    16 GB 2133mhz
    500gb wd blue
    1tb 7200rpm
    No Windows 10 key

    This sets the configuration at precisely $1300 - 5% (using the NB3 coupon code) is $1235 total. Free shipping. Seems like a pretty good deal when you consider other laptops with a similar spec.

    If you do a different configuration and get it just under $1300, you can get a crumby accessory for $5 to bump you over the $1299.

    Anyone know what the base of the laptop is? Honestly not a clue what it is.

    If NB3 expires, the code BURGER also gives a 5% discount for orders over $1,299.

    Anyone else or is it just me?

    Huh, the system is no longer available... must have ran out. I just checked it out today, but I think the sale has been going on for a little while now.

    That's a shame, does anyone know what the base unit is/was?

    Looked like MSI, but not MSI lol

    I thought so at first as well, but the front seems to be a little different... unless it just has a slightly modded bottom case.

    Yep, I think the top is it... but the cyberpowepc had a 1060.
