I think I have settle for the Blade RTX over the MSI gs65. I am going to go with the base 2070 model and probably upgrade the SSD.
I am sure I will get the warranty but I am not sure where I should purchase and who has the least hassle on warranty issues.
Best Buy?
Amazon?
Direct from Razer?
Any suggestions and best course of action from current owners? I will probably purchase in the spring.
Thanks ahead.

Went to check it out but I am stunned by the prices. They want an additional 250.00 USD OVER the base price just to have the opportunity to pay more for the Liquid Metal.
Their 3 year warranty is also 200.00 more than Amazons 4 year warranty. I would be willing to pay a premium but I cant get gouged like that .....I can do the liquid metal myself. -

As someone else noted, getting the liquid metal application through HIDevolution will mean it will be covered by them should anything happen. I believe they offer a NBR discount to active members. You should contact @Donald@HIDevolution directly if this interests you.
Another good option is the Microsoft Store. The advantage here is you can see the notebook in person before buying (if there's a store near you) and they offer up to four years of warranty and accidental damage protection. You can also get a 10% discount if you are a student or parent of one, teacher or military.
Amazon also offers up to a four year warranty and accidental damage protection as an add-on. You could even get it buy it from HIDevolution through Amazon.
Best Buy also lets you have the face-to-face experience and offers warranty and accidental damage protection up to three years (if you don't have any issues with the "Geek Squad").
On a side note, are you aware there is a RTX 2060 model? Just asking because I would assume that would be even "basier" if that's what you were looking for.theautumnsbest, Arrrrbol and Astenb like this. -

I may pull the trigger on the Microsoft Store.
I am noticing they are on sale 200-400 less than other retailers.
My only concern is Coil Whine...and how quickly i can get a replacement or a refund.
Amazon warranty at 4 years is attractive though.
Best place to purchase an Razer Blade RTX?
