Hey guys I am buying a new laptop because I am working overnight and have a lot of downtime so wanted shit to play.
I was looking at this laptop
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834234297
and had a question about 1060 vs 1070 in laptops. Seems like 1070 reviews are shit compared to 1060 in this laptop.
Is there a reason for that? Should I just stick with the 1060 version?
Just wondering before I pull the trigger friday. Just wanted to play a bunch of new releases on steam, maybe some emulated stuff on my laptop during my downtime.

You realize that it isn't an actual 1060 or 1070 right? It's a laptop version that simply isn't as good. Same thing with the processor.
Buy a desktop and get a cheaper laptop.

why do you post things you know nothing about? what purpose does it serve you posting disinfo?

I literally explained why I am buying a laptop.
I already have a desktop that I can play whatever I need to.
I work overnight and a lot of the time have 4-5 hours to myself.
I want a laptop to entertain myself by playing games. I can't buy a desktop and bring it into work.

Not an argument.

The laptop version of the 1060 and 1070 are actually extremely close to the desktop versions in performance, the mobile 1070 actually has more shaders than the desktop version to balance out it's marginally lower clock speed.
That said, gaming laptops are still retarded but if you're going to get one, cooler = better so the 1060.

I've had good experiences with open box shit on Newegg. Ignore the morons who say to build a desktop. Can't bring that to work.

if thats a 1080p60hz display the gtx 1060 version is good enough.

that looks like a damn good deal for a decent gaming laptop.

Gotcha that makes sense. Guess I will just stick with the 1060 then instead of 1070.
Thanks guys.
if the 1060 and 1070 laptops are anything like the previous generation of 960 vs 970's you're gonna pay a fuck ton more for the 1070 laptop.
i almost bought a 960m laptop a month ago but the 1060 laptops will be on sale next near so i'm just gonna >wait
