Not bad! Runs like a charm, built sturdy and the keybed is quite nice. The CPU is quite the powerhouse and lets me run as many plugins in Cubase 12 as I please with ease, but Kontakt and Massive X can easily milk the CPU for all its worth with very few instances on the most complex patches. Patches I wouldn't use anyway, "normal" sounds are nice and resource lite. The GPU is overkill for me, but I'm sure it rocks. I can easily use a 4k TV or monitor if I wish without any downsides. The one downside to this laptop is how incredibly loud the cooling fans can occasionally get under heavier loads.The SSD is a WD N530, a decent thing. The thermal pads on it are skimpy, I'll have to upgrade those later as a precaution.
