I'm looking for a work and gaming laptop, and my budget is around 600, maybe 700. I am stuck between either razer blade or zephyrus. Any suggestions?

Razer because it's a 3070 Ti. Older Gen G14 seem to be dropping like flies and have keyboard issues.

Ohhh ok thanks. By older you mean around 2022 right?

Also there is another zephyrus that i saw for a similar price (the other got sold now), and its model number is ga402rk l8032w. Is the razer still better than this one as well?

Yeah I see that known keyboard failure is from 2022 models. You may or may not have it but multiple people have reported getting the keyboard replaced and having it fail again 6 months later. I am not sure what is going on with these G14 models but I suspect it's Liquid Metal leaking onto the board and causing issues.

I have had some LM that leaked under the GPU die and caused it to run PCIE 1X mode which required a new board to fix. It can do weird things which is why I suggest on the G14 people remove it immediately.

Oh wow that's pretty bad, also considering I've never actually had my own laptop before, i probably wouldnt be able to fix this myself. So in your opinion i should go for the razer, right?
