Asus ROG gl703gs

 

MSI gs65

Ok thank you for the help, looking into the 3xs laptops, surprising the 17" is cheaper than the 15 which is nice

No worries. BTW the pictures in the product page of both 3XS laptops are wrong

I can't seem to find any pictures of them but shouldn't matter too much but one more thing is 2070 much better than 2060, is it worth the £240 jump.

 

Can't find and comparisons to the 2060 and 2070 in laptop's

I went for MSI GP73 8RF. Got it for about 1375 Pounds.

 

In laptops, 1070 is 10% faster than 2060 on average. However, the latter is also more expensive, so you are effectively paying more for less. The only benefit is less electricity being used, so less temperature, however the performance reduction is the explanation.

 

Build quality is decent, and performance with the screen is super. Keyboard is also decent. No thermal/power throttling. Hinges also seem decent - just don't yank it hard.

Please, man! ? MSI was your suggestion (to me). Nonetheless, in the EU we have a 14-day return period, so I'll make sure to check that it fits all the requirements (including the one to be durable).
