    No Overclock, not hot at all.

    So I have an Asus Zephyrus GX501G with the GTX 1080 Max-Q. I've owned the laptop for 1 year and some change, but all of a sudden the laptop will randomly artifact and freeze. Under load or just from idle. I could game for 4 hours, and nothing, but then other times it happens within 5 minute of booting up the system. I've tested the drivers, with no luck, could there be a faulty connection inside of the laptop? is there another component that could be broken?

    I ended up pulling the trigger on the GX501 with the 1080 MaxQ. really couldn't beat the 1600 price. If I really want to go RTX in the future, I'll just upgrade my desktop.

    Something thin and light as I will be on sets and need to take it with me, battery life isn't much of a concern as I always will have access to power. 2 hours would be a good point while doing excel and Photoshop. I saw right now the Zephyrus GX501 with a 1080 maxQ for sale for 1600. Literally a 1000 cheaper then the 2070 version. And from my understanding the 1080 is about on par with the 2070? https://www.ebay.com/itm/254041064754

    USA. My budget is flexible 1500-2500. I really want the best bang for my buck, I would like to game on this, but my home PC is capable of the heavy duty gaming. I've seen the 1080 maxQ Zephryus on Amazon for 2000 right now, as well as the MS65 with the 1070 maxQ for 1700. Just not sure if spending 2500+ for RTX is really worth it.

    So I need a decently powerful laptop to edit with Premiere, Photoshop and would like to be able to do some light gaming as well. I currently have been looking at the Zephryus and the M15, but now with the new RTX cards, I'm conflicted. Should I shell out the extra money for the newer GPU or would it be smarter to get a 1070 version and save over 500 dollars? Help!
