I am planning to buy a laptop around ~900$ (equivalent) budget. But I am not sure to recognize good deals. I currently have my eyes locked on a gigabyte one with 3060/11400H.

Anyone have any suggestions as to what to look for? Also gigabyte good at making laptops?

I would google model number to look at a few reviews just in case there are glaring problems, especially in regards to heat.

So far the gigabyte is ok. My concern is if it's a ripoff or good one for the price.

Rule number one when buying tech is your always get ripped off. There is always a better deal two weeks from now. You just have to get a feeling when timing is good enough for what you want.

Yap, find the deal that fits you. Buy it and don't look back. Accept it that you found it valuable enough to buy it.

Check sold ebay listing for used prices. Use camel camel camel to check Amazon price history.

I know it's never fun to wait, but black Friday is typically the lost price of the year for tech
