Laptop of 5 years broke down 2 days ago. Need some help with finding a new laptop. Thank you.

1. Budget: Under RM6K
2. Usage: Gaming (Apex, Cs, possibly triple A in the future), school
3. Requirements: 17 inch, RTX 3060 or higher, >=144hz screen
4. Urgency: need within 5 days

No preferences on battery and weight, screen preferably more vibrant than not. Both ryzen and intel acceptable. Before finding this forum was interested in Rog Strix G17 G713 (3060 model no longer in stock), Msi GF75 (low wattage), Legion 5 17.3" (Out of stock) and Tuf A17 (2021). Sorry if this seems too specific

Need help asap guys, tomorrow must use laptop for class and gaming. Im thinking to buy acer nitro 5 with 3060 and amd 5800h but many YouTuber not recommend it due to it have a lot of issues but it was the only laptop that cheap enough to have amd and 3060 in it. But many youtuber recommended the lenovo legion 5 pro but with 3070 is expensive but many ytber said legion is g.o.a.t of laptop. With 2k major differences  between lenovo and acer is gsync and gpu, idk if gsync make any difference.

Acer nitro = rm 4.8k
Legion pro 5 3070 = 6.8k

Here’s the thing extra 2k for 4-7 extra fps to me is not worth it but my MAIN ISSUE issue which one will last long in term of not gpu but from cooling, screen, speakers and etc. Btw im using only microsoft office and my most demanding game is cod warzone
*
skip the acer

go for lenovo legian line ..

Went and ordered the Legion 5 pro via reseller. Waiting time probably 6 weeks. Just the basics like 8gb ram, 256gb ssd.. once arrived, just upgrade later, 5800h. See luck, maybe Russia do some action and all supply lines delayed again.

probably around $800, looking to upgrade ram externally. Apparently the ram timing that shipped with the laptop is underclocked. But probably 6 weeks waiting time.
