Gaming Laptop Advice - Defiance 15.6

[kshina]

After deliberating for a while...below is the build I'm thinking of.

I was originally going to buy the Razer Blade 15 Base 2020 but you get much value with below.

Ill be using for some gaming and moderate everyday use.

Also Ive heard good reports of R&P 15 - Elutronics -Anyone know what chassis they use? I read that XMG use this chassis but price is expensice due to import tax.

I have some questions if anyone can kindly answer

1. Im assuming there is RGB lighting with this model?
2. Im assume there is a Ethernet Port with this model?
3. Thermal Paste - ARCTIC MX-4 EXTREME THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY COMPOUND - What does the extra £9.00 do for thermals? and assume it will be done by PCS?
4. Assume there is HDMI port with this model?
5. How is the thermal performance with this clevo chassis?
