Get the one with the 1060 and a 1080p screen. In this way, you don't need to buy an Alienware Graphics Ampilifier to max out AAA games.

Well, if you want eGPU support, you need an Alienware or Razer Laptop. Therefore, you should get the one with the 1060, which will be able to handle AAA games for a while.

The GTX 970M is crap! It has nearly half the performance of the GTX 1060. Additionally, a higher resolution means that you need a more powerful GPU to run games at that resolution...

But, other laptops don't support eGPUs, so he can't have an eGPU even if he wants it...

nope, least purchased most returned. 90 percent of customers ask us for suggestions and we never suggest alienware, only people who speciflcy want alienware get it and then something like 50 percent of there laptops are returned. The desktops are good though.
