GTX 960m

A gtx 960m is good enough for gaming on a 1080p screen ? The notebook I'm looking is the rog gl752vw with the i7 6700hq and the 960m 2 GB . I'm mostly thinking that the 2 GB may be too low

What's the price of this laptop? Maybe be able to squeeze a bit more performance in. As a 960m CAN game at 1080p, I'd do a ton of searching for something a bit better.

It's essentially a 750 Ti - it will run game but expect low-medium settings

As for the laptop - make sure to get the grey metal version

You can do games at high settings if 40-50 fps is okay with you. I can do 40 FPS constant and steady on Fallout 4 with most settings on Ultra and no AA. Shadows I usually turn down pretty hard though but the game is steady.

I would consider it to be "good enough" although I'd only recommend the 4GB model since 2GB just isn't enough for most games nowadays.

With some tweaking it will run modern games at good framerates at 1080p but dont expect max settings above 60fps in games like bf1, fallout4  or the witcher3

It's 1600 Canadian dollars

That's what I fear 2 GB for video memory today is pretty low

I don't mind being below 60 if the experience don't suffer from going below 30

The Black version is plastic and is utter shit - it's LCD is easy to break when opening. Metal or nothing

Doesn't help that the laptop is the same price as most GOOD sager machines with 1060s in them... http://www.xoticpc.com/sager-np8151-clevo-p650rp6.html This being the only laptop I'd recommend to cool the 1060 and maaaaaybe the 1070.  And if you convert it to CAD, it's around $1621~ish with some change?

The version with the 1060 is out of my budget I'm between the 960m 4 GB with 15' screen or 960m 2gb with 17' screen

Didn't tell us your budget, only how much that last machine costs.  Hence the reason for the machine post. I'd go for the 4GB 960M in any case.
