Acer Nitro VN7-791G
i7-4710HQ
GTX860M 2GB
16GB RAM
1TB HDD + M2 256GB SSD
17" FullHD IPS LG Display LP173WF4-SPF1
A clevo P870 with full config costs about 3X the price of my current setup, and performs about 350% better on GPU (GTX980Desktop) and about 130%-150% better on CPU (i7-6700 Desktop). Also, it comes with a 4K Auo display which offers 100% adobeRGB coverage, which is, I think, the best part. Hyperdimension Neptunia Rebirth series and Dota 2 never asked too much of my GPU.
Another thing I am concerned with is if I should go with Acer Predator instead because they offer reverse of air flow for anti dust protection, or if that is a marketing gimmick. But Acer comes only with gtx980M and I doubt it will be able to get a decent performance on a 4K display.
I have no idea how much better can Pascal be, or if it is worth the wait, or if Clevo will create change-able GPU cards with Pascal modules (GTX980 Desktop comes on a change-able card, it is not soldered).
I honestly don't know what to tell you, laptop are the almost the last thing that is released for new generation powerful graphic laptops
how about building A desktop PC with a budget GPU 960 or 950 and upgrade and then upgrade to Pascal when it is released?
