This is a screamer of a deal for Cyber Monday. HP has slashed the price of the Omen 16z by nearly half to just $950; that's a saving of $850 (was $1700). I chose it because of its CPU, the Ryzen 9 8940HX is a power user dream with 16 cores (32 threads) and a staggering 64MB L3 cache. The next cheapest laptop with this CPU costs almost 50% more. This HP deal is THAT good!
I cannot stress enough how powerful that 16-core, 55W CPU is. Although it ranks 10th in AMD's own leaderboard of mobile CPUs, it is faster than all but two of Intel's laptop processors (the 275HX and the 285HX).
