GeForce GTX 1650 Ti for the Optima 17" laptop

[Charly]

Hello

Just saw the only available graphics card is out of stock until 1 March on the 17" Optima.

The smaller 15" does seem to have the GTX 1660 available though. Weird that you cant configure the bigger laptop to the more powerful card?

Does anyone know how long the 1650ti has been out of stock, and how accurate the 1 March supply date may be?

I have already put an order in, but I am a bit worried about how for this might slip from 1 March date if there is a huge waiting list. I did get one of these laptops last year, and was very happy with it, and it has the sweet spot in terms of price.

Cheers!

Cant say anything about the stock, but reason GPU cant be configured with bigger laptop is I believe that the chassis will have come with it pre-soldered on to it so they can only offer what they get in.

Thats fair enough. Unsure of why the GPU is out of stock, and not the whole thing, then?

Fingers crossed that is an accurate time.

According to the website the Opt 17" laptop is marked as out of stock (not just the GPU) - but says until 10 February so perhaps they are awaiting some.
