and


GIGABYTE G5 KC - 15.6" FHD IPS Anti-Glare 144Hz - Intel Core i5-10500H - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU 6 GB GDDR6 - 16 GB Memory - 512 GB PCIe SSD - Windows 10 Home - Gaming Laptop (G5 KC-5US1130SH)

Might boil down to your personal preference, mate. 17.3" or 15.6" screen real-estate comes down to you. Same goes for the color gamut of screen, Optimus, upgradablity, GPU, types and quantities of ports.

This is a tough one based on paper. I'd go with Gigabyte by some points. Hope it helps

First it depends on what you do for work and the games you play. The i7 will be better for cpu tasks and the 3060 will be better for games.
