Yes it is for gaming. I've had laptops like this before and they are more than portable enough for me so that isn't a concern. I just need something I can easily throw in a bag and take with me while I'm away for work

Does anyone have some advice on which of these laptops will give the better performance. I have the choice between two. The first from last year and the second from this year. I have listed the only differences between them. Thank you. ROG STRIX SCAR 17 FHD 17.3" 360Hz RTX 3080-16GB Ryzen R9-5900HX 32GB DDR4-3200Mhz ROG STRIX SCAR 17 QHD 17.3" 240Hz RTX 3070ti-8GB i9-12900H 32GB DDR5 4800Mhz Also to note all listed components are laptop grade

I'm not to bothered about weight. I will be carrying it around a lot but I don't care if it's a little heavy. Battery life is not to much of an issue as it will nearly always be plugged in but obviously bigger is better. My budget is around £1800 but I'm willing to go a little over £2000 for something really special. Edit: the two biggest things I'll be looking for after performance is cooling and noise. I'll be using it in a pub a lot to connect to the internet so quieter is good but not imperative.

I've also been looking at the pc specialist octane v/vi

Or what about this Alienware laptop with an i7 8750 and 1070? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Alienware-Laptop-Memory-NVIDIA-GeForce/dp/B07D6CMJYS/ref=sr_1_2?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1552414899&sr=1-2&refinements=p_89%3AAlienware|Razer%2Cp_n_feature_seven_browse-bin%3A11416479031

Yeah I've been looking at quite few different laptops. The acer Helios 500 seems to be a good choice. From what I've seen of the GL703GS it seems to be on par with most other laptops as far as cooling goes and been on offer for £1400 seems like a really good deal.

GL703GS-EE071T, https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus-rog-gl703gs-nvidia-gtx-1070-16gb-17.3-120hz-g-sync-3ms-i7-8750h-gaming-laptop-lt-266-as.html GL704GW-EV004T https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus-strix-scar-ii-gl704gw-nvidia-rtx-2070-16gb-17.3-144hz-3ms-i7-8750h-gaming-laptop-lt-26u-as.html

Both are an i7 8750h. The one with a 2070 has 512gb ssd and a 1tb said. While the 1070 has 256 ssd and a 1tb her at 5400hz. Not other than that both seem to be nearly identical. Both are rog strix scar

I'm looking at a couple of laptops. No the are the same brand. One is last ears model with a 1070 and the other is this year's model with a 2070. There is a £700 price difference between them. (Granted this year's model has the better storage option as well). Will there really be enough of a performance upgrade at 1080p to justify the increased price when I don't care about ray tracing?

Max budget is around £2000, although one willing to pay a little more for a something really good. Despite may plans to be constantly carrying it from place to place I'd rather sacrifice weight for cooling. It will nearly always be plugged in so battery life is secondary.

I might give MSI a miss then. If there bad build quality and have poor software optimisation I'd rather spend a little more on a quality product

I'm now thinking that maybe I should wait a little longer while I save some more money and get a Acer Predator Helios 500 PH517-51 as it seems to have really good thermals and I'm not sure how good the MSI laptops will be

I've been looking at two MIS laptops, the GT63 Titan 8RF and GP73 Leopard 8RF. I think I slightly preferer the GT63 but I'm trying to get as much information as I can before I make the purchase.

My only option to buy a laptop currently is through overclockers so anything you'd recommend I would need to be able to search for through that site

only if you have a link to it on overclockers
