Does anyone know of the power draw on this laptop? Is it 115 Watts?

If you are a Costco member I'd get this instead: https://www.costco.com/msi-ge75-r...68605.html

For $100 more they have a 2070 model going on sale on the 10th.
So, rather than paying $929 for the one in this deal, you would pay:
$1100 for this (when it comes back on sale):
https://www.costco.com/msi-ge75-r...68605.html

Or
$1200 for this when it goes on sale at this price on March 10:

this is deifinitely a worthwhile deal. Any laptop with RTX 2060 under $1000 is worth a look.
Comparable deals were Lenovo y540 15.6" with i7 9750h + RTX 2060 for $900ish. But this is a 17.3" which are usually far fewer choices, so take what you can get under $1000 with RTX 2060.
--
I've only seen a pair of 17.3" deals before this: Legion 5 17.3" Ryzen7 + RTX 2060 come less than $1000 after cash back and a Dell G7 i5-9300h with RTX 2060 for $800 from Walmart. So this is only the 3rd RTX 2060 laptop deal under $1000. Maybe there were also a few scratch and dent /refurbs deals <$1000.
So what's your verdict for the 4 choices below. Just compare the laptop and pricing (ignoring warranty length and sales vendor for now)

$929 after rebate for the one in this deal

$1100 when on Sale for the Costco MSI RTX 2060 115W

$1200 sale price on March 10 for the MSI 2070 RTX 115W

Disregarding the price for the sake of argument, if you had to choose between this 17.3 laptop and an Acer Nitro 5 17.3 inch laptop with a 2060 and i7-9750h, which would you chose? I'm trying to decide between the two laptops.
See the above post. You have 4 new options!
