    Hi, Im torn between buying a HP Omen 17 (144Hz IPS FHD 17" screen) and the Gigabyte Aero 17 144Hz IPS FHD 17". But I cant find any reviews or info about colour gamut for the IPS FHD anywhere. Every review seems to focus on the 4K screen. Anybody have this info? The Omen has a 77% AdobeRGB gamut (which is quite good for a gaming laptop) so Im hoping the Aero's is a tad higher. Need it for photo editing and gaming btw. Cheers.

    If its not too much trouble, can you come back to us when you get the laptop? How is it? I am also considering this laptop for photography purposes.

    Sure. Might be a while though as Im looking for a new camera at the moment. The laptop might have to wait till the late summer/autumn as I have a pretty decent desktop set-up that will keep me going until then. Hoping prices will come down too on the 2019 models now that the newer ones are out. :)
