I think what he means is that Nvidia as said they are moving away from the "m" naming scheme. so for example, even though the 1070 in a laptop will be a cut-down version of the desktop 1070, it will be called a 1070, not a 1070m.

Thanks for the comments, I think I actually should wait, I had completely forgotten about polaris coming so soon. I'm interested in seeing how AMD will fair with the new architecture.

Basically I want no less than a 970m in performance and to spend no more than $1,300. I can get the 970m right now for that price. I just don't want to wait for the 970m equivalent, be it AMD or Nvidia, and they get priced at more than $1,300.

Damn that was quick, thanks for the reply's, something to think about...

Just trying to get some opinions. A lot of laptops with gtx 970m's are on sale right now. Would it be worth grabbing one at a good price, or waiting for a gtx1070m or equivalent. It wont be my main machine, I have a desktop, I just need something for slow days at work and travel.
