Its a bit presumptuous to assume you will be able to get your hands on one of those laptops with a 3060 for 1k usd in the next 6 months. Confirm a preorder if you can as there is little risk but given current sales of gaming laptops in the 1-2k range for the previous 6 months my guess is there will be exactly 5 available when they are released and bestbuy or memoryexpress or lenovo will then have a similar model with a 1660Ti or 2060 GPU on "SALE" for a comparative price as consolation.

If you find anything good with a confirmed shipping date though definitely snap it up!
