    For some reason pretty much all the reviews i can find are for the N850HK version which seems to be a 2017 model, while the 850EK seems to be a 2018 model.

    The 2017 review that I found mentioned that the exhaust ports are located on the sides of the laptop so you will have hot air blowing on your hands...i'm not sure if thats a problem with the 850EK still.

    Also wondering where the ports are located on the 850EK, and whether the fans have the same issue as my P15SM where the fans will go into turbo mode after the CPU hits 80 degrees and will not go back to normal even after the temperature drops to 50 degrees.

    With the current black friday sales, im looking at about $1.4k AUD for :

    i7-8750H
    16gb RAM
    GTX 1050ti
    480gb SSD + 1tb 7200rpm HDD

    Which is unfortunately much higher than I wanted to spend (dell had similar specs for about $1k before black friday). My local reselle does not seem to have an option to downgrade the CPU, which is I wanted to do (wanted a GTX 1050ti but not a top of the line CPU).

    Edit : Actually I think I will get a P650HP because its roughly the same price with a GTX 1060. Anyone know anything about it?
