I’m not very tech savvy, but I’d like to know how this laptop stacks up and what the pros and cons might be. Also wondering what the approximate value of it is.

Would it do good w/ gaming? Video editing? How does it compare to other laptops, is it more on the high end or low end?

Here are the specs

--

Win 11 pro build 22631

12th Gen Intel Core i9-12950HX, 2300 Mhz, 16 Cores, 24 Logical Processors

    This is a pretty beefy machine, desktop replacement some might call it. It is focused on productivity, so gaming would not be the focus for example, however the machine is very capable of that still. The main feature is the CPU performance, for things like simulations and renders. The GPU is equivalent to an RTX3060, but has more video memory and a stability instead of performance oriented driver. So performance in some titles may be slightly lower compared to the same power mobile RTX3060s, but overall the machine should deliver good to excellent performance in nearly any situation, except for battery life.

      Yup this is what I was gonna say. What I have to add though is those GPUs are for things like engineering (air flow simulation for example), 3d modeling, animation, etc. They are typically more expensive than their gaming oriented GPU counter part which in this case as mentioned is a 3060. For video editing, you can find a 3060 or maybe even a 4060 or 4070 for similar prices to work stations like that with better performance for your use case.
