So I just picked this up last week from Amazon for $500 and it's pretty nice so far. It's sold out right now - not surprised given the price.

Kaby Lake i5-7200U
NVIDIA 940MX 2GB GDDR5
8GB DDR
256GB SSD
USB 3.1 Type-C
15.6" 1080p non-glare screen

Performance is pretty good - about what I expected. The 940MX is pretty competent, but seems to be highly game-dependent.

Any requests for benchmarks?

I have the same laptop, except last gen. Took a while to get used to the touchpad but I like it now.

That's a pretty good deal. I paid $750 for a Yoga 710 with similar specs. Biggest diffs are touch screen, 360 hinge, and about a pound lighter. Also the yoga uses DDR3 for the 940mx.

What's your 3dmark score? I'm curious to see how much impact the GDDR5 makes on an otherwise identical system. I don't really play games on it as I have a pretty powerful PC, I am just glad the GPU isn't vampiring memory away from the system.

Is yours the 384 core or 512 core model? That will probably make the biggest difference between them. I'll post 3DMark ASAP.
