This starts Friday for anyone wondering (today for totaltech members)
I'm not seeing that stipulation. I purchased it this morning and I am not a totaltech member.

This seems like the best deal so far this month (in the $500ish price range). Does this compare to the best buy Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3, 3050 Ti, 256GB SSD for ~$500 from a week ago? To me it seems nearly identical in terms of price/specs (not sure about processor/display, or the ability to add more RAM like the Lenovo one) plus double the SSD space. I like this one's look better as well. Am I missing something here? Should I wait to see if something better comes out as black friday approaches?

Anyone know if the included 8gb soldered? Sounds like max is 64gb but I'm unclear if both slots can be replaced

I bought this laptop and upgraded ram to 16gb right away. For this price, it's worth it. Im using this as secondary gaming/work laptop.

A wild deal! $550 for a 3050ti and 144Hz screen!!?! It isn't even BF yet and I'm really tempted. The IO is better than most gaming machines too! USB C 3.2 Gen 2 and 3 other full size as well as mini DP 1.4!

Was about to build a Ryzen 5 machine and am having trouble justifying it when this is available for about the same price with a decent GPU and good screen….

There's also an AmEx offer for Best Buy of $25 back on purchases of $250 or more. Seems like if your card has that, this is a pretty good deal.
