    UBR is usually accurate.
    It seems like a good machine, if you don't mind the thermal issues of a 1080 in such a chassis

    I have one and I can tell you overall it's a good machine.

    I have it undervolted .120 and I'm seeing 4k gaming temps (High - Ultra, Custom Settings) Low 80's on CPU and a consistent 80-81 GPU.
    Smooth graphics, decent build quality with some odd popping noises after heating up then cooling down (Heat expansion and contraction).

    BIGGEST disappointment is the level of backlight bleed and I'm not totally impressed with the 4k screen in general. If it were $500-$600
    cheaper i'd be OK with I with it, but as is (at this price) I'm not so sure.

    Stock temps and now the "P" key on the keyboard is only working intermittently. I've never re-pasted a laptop and don't think i would make this one my first.

    Love my X7 v7 dt.... I strongly recommend the 1440 120hz screen. I'm never getting 4K on a laptop again, not after all the scaling issues with softwares not optimized e.g. Photoshop, Sony Vegas, VLC ...etc

    Yeap, i concur on the 1440p 120Hz screen over the 4k due to scaling issues and not all apps are optimized. I had the 4k version and returned it for the 1440p 120 Hz screen and love it.
