Other noteworthy features include USB-PD charging over its type-C port! These are some of the very few laptops with good graphics that support charging this way. Very nice, even with maximum of 65W.

The max possible on that chipset is 2933Mhz, so it's not possible to get higher than that.

Gamers should skip 2070 and wait for 3070 detail next week or RDNA2 later.

Depends what they will announce. It could be compute cards only and general overview of Ampere. Then all will depend what features 3000 will have over 2000. It will have some extra raster performance, but if you have 1080p laptop with RTX 2070 then if the game at that resolution is like 30FPS AVG and 20 FPS low then you need like +50% be sure it's smooth. Doubt you get so much improvement to make a difference. High refresh rate gaming could be bit different, or 4K but that's likely 2080+ cards if at all.

Then we have DXR. If it's get a noticeable boost a.k.a. won't hammer FPS that much then for some cases it could be that value element, especially if like you want to play Cyberpunk 2077 or Minecraft with lots of DXR.

They could also improve things like DLSS but would be kind of odd if it would be Ampere only. Would have to be a real breakthrough in terms of value - like actually giving +50% or more FPS using lower resolutions on a wider range of games.

And if 3000 will be good 2000 will get discounts... because who would buy RTX 2070 laptop after announcement, right?

when do you think rdna2 mobile will hit the market? never is one of the possible answers.

Don't have information about RDNA2 yet ,maybe later than PS5 and XB. However 3070 and 3080 could be announced next week so gamer can see it detail before buying 2070.

Why would people buy this when they can get the 502 with the AMD 4800HS?

Jesse, because unfortunately the 2060 that comes in the G15 with Ryzen 7 4800HS is a 65 watt Max-Q variant.  I've ordered this model myself as I am a casual gamer and am quite pleased with it's performance anyway.  But the 2070 is attractive to gamers with more $

Aren't this refreshed model and the new m15 the same?
