This has the bad boy I7 in it. The I7-7700HQ with a passmark of 8942, as compared to the wimpy low-powered i7-7500u processors with the passmark of 5219. This has a solid videocard in the 1050ti that should be pretty ideal for gaming. It’s really a decent set-up for the money. 4K display and a bigger SSD would have been nice, but in all reality, the 1080P display for this graphics card is a better match if someone buys this for gaming. 12GB DDR is a little strange too, if you’re going to increase from 8GB you should just go to 16GB because the 12GB uses 1 x 4 GB, 1 x 8 GB. I would assume this would limit the full potential of using dual channels in the memory. In real world performance this would have a negligible effect, but at this model level when you have a great CPU and GPU, evening out the memory would make sense. Overall I give this a 4.5/5 for what woot is charging. Nice job woot!

Are the batteries in these replaced when reconditioned or are they the ones they originally shipped with?

5

anyone know how hard it would be to upgrade the ram? and upgrade the SSD?

Doesn’t look too complicated:

Anyone with any insight into the VR-ability of this given it’s the 1050ti version?

I think it can. Here’s a youtube video review with a laptiop of similar specs doing VR

Likely the same battery unless there was a specific problem. Good thing is they aren’t going to be that old. I got a similar model with a 6th gen I7 just a few months ago and the build date was October of last year. This is a newer model.

You should also be able to purchase an extended warranty through HP. Don’t get it right away though. Wait until they offer a promotion. I got 40% off through a coupon and a promotion and they also have a rebate on the three year warranty where if you don’t use it then you get all your money back at the end.
