The specs between the two that you’re comparing is like the whole apples to oranges saying.

144 vs 240hz
8gb vs 32gb ram
256gb ssd vs 512gb ssd
1 usb c (data only), 1 usb3.1 (Gen2), 2 usb3.1 (Gen1) vs 3 usb3.2(Gen2)

There may be another comparable machines closer in specs but I don’t look that often myself.

Simply options, no direct competition for such an oddball laptop.

I can’t think why anyone would want a 240Hz 15" display on a 2060 gpu with 32 GB of RAM. The 2060 won’t push 240Hz anywhere it matters. The processor will bottleneck way before 16 GB of RAM would have.

RAM is cheap these days, which is why they stacked it. Next gen processors are worth waiting for in my opinion. If someone HAS to buy now, the 2080 laptop I linked is pretty hard to beat for price to performance ratio.

Refresh rate ≠ frame rate.

The GS65-478 does NOT have a card reader.

Thank you. We updated the specs.
