Laptop for college

[ACEHACK]

ok so i am a cs major that does gaming and video editing too sometimes 3d modeling so my budget is 2k but i am flexible until $2200. i need a laptop preferably slim under 1" and 15.6-17" is ok 

i definitely want a great display and obviously gtx 1070-1080.

 

btw i was thinking something like 

https://www.aorus.com/product-detail.php?p=546&t=35&t2=&t3=

but it exceeds my budget so nvm

any suggestion would be appreciated  

also, i can probably get by until the end of this month if new laptops are coming if not i might as well buy it now

MSI GS63 Stealth Pro 4K-228 Gaming Laptop is best....

MSI GS63 Stealth Pro 4K-228 is the best 4K gaming laptop under $2000 with Intel Core i7-7700HQ Kaby Lake processor and 6GB NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1060 graphics. The RAM, SSD and HDD are 16GB, 512GB and 2TB respectively

These two doesn't come together. Choose either a powerful but thick laptop or a thin laptop with Max-Q GPU (which has a reduced performance compared to the regular one)

 

I prefer Aero 15. Yes it does have a weaker GTX 1060 GPU, however, 1070 and 1080 are power hungry cards and they produce a lot of heat which is not suitable in thin laptops

Better than 1060 around, 20%? (depends on games)
