I had posted a post regarding wanting to buy a gaming laptop, but it turned out to a discussion about budget and such I didn't get much much info from it..

Forget about budget and other stuff and all. If you HAVE to buy a laptop and gaming IS a requirement, what would you look? which brands are good or bad?

specifics?

Ryzen 7 or 9 or Intel equivqlent, ryzen preferred
Nvidia RTX 3060 (140W preferred) or 4050 140W
1440p preferred but 1080p is ok, but IPS or equivalent is must
aesthetics is preferred, I like white/silver more than black
Maybe good battery life?

Budget: 1000$

I tried this first but the discussion got sidetracked

This is so specific I have to wonder why you are even here asking for advice. NewEgg has exactly 5 in-stock laptops meeting these criteria.

my only issue is which brand is RELIABLE. I don't want to spend a 1000$ and spend it again next year.

Down in this price range it’s all cheap plastic and lowest-bidder components. Doesn’t matter which brand you buy, it comes down to how well you take care of it and a bit of luck.

Actual well-built and well-designed machines are close to double your budget.
