Specs:
Processor: Intel Core i5
Memory: 8 GB of RAM
Storage: 128 GB SSD plus 1 TB SATA
Screen: 17.3 Inches
OS: Windows 10
Benefits:

  • The large display is great for gaming while on the go and allows you to game even when an external monitor is not available
  • It has the combined hard drive setup with both an SSD and SATA drive available. This allows you to get the benefits of SSD while still having plenty of space due to the larger SATA
  • The GeForce GTX 1660 is a very powerful graphics card and has 6 GB of dedicated memory. This card should have no problem handling the high video demands that are typical of modern games
  • It also includes the added security of a fingerprint reader

Downsides:

  • While a gaming laptop is obviously more mobile friendly than your typical gaming desktop PC this is far from a mobile friendly laptop in general. It weighs over 3 KG making it big and bulky to carry for extended periods of time
  • This laptop has plenty of specs that are impressive such as the powerful graphics card but memory is disappointing. 8 GB is in line with what many low to mid range laptops offer and is a potential performance bottleneck
  • No touchscreen, no 360 degree hinge and now optical drive are three technologies that some consumers are looking for but lacking in this model

Verdict:
The Dell G7 17 7790 G7790-5541BLK-PGB has some impressive hardware but also lacks in other areas. It is slightly cheaper than some of the other  gaming laptop options so you will need to consider if the reduced price is worth some of the missing features for you to go ahead with purchasing.
