    I can speak for the Acer Helios 300, as a good machine. I`m focused on several Acer laptop forums & the issues these machines have seem random & more likely user caused than major manufacturing , persistent, issues. I myself still have an old 300 with a 1060, and it works  with no issues. 
     
    I do believe howerver, 2k+ for a laptop is to overkill though, as performance per $ goes down hard, and desktop path starts to show a 50%+ performance increase or more, if followed.
     
    Since you will fork so much money in this though, buy the latest stuff at least. Don`t throw 2k in obsolete parts.
    And avoid HDDs.

    I`d take the 1060 3GB version. Thats almost 100% more powerful than that 1050 mobile gpu. Undervolt the  8300 a bit & test thermals, but overall it depends on the games u want to play vs amount of time u will actually 3d model with the CPU (or maybe your app uses the gpu)
     
    but thats just me, i like more GPU power over CPU.
