I'm not gonna post all the unnecessary details and instead focus on key features that everyone cares about, including me. So here we go:
Display:
I'm not aware of all the technical details but seemingly both laptops have <17.3" MATTE FULL HD 144HZ SCREEN>. The key difference being Octane 6 has the G-Sync module. There is really no debate to be had here imo. Octane 6 takes this one. So on to the next component.
CPU: i5-9600K vs i7-9750H. This is where it gets more complex, maybe not so much though. That's why I need help. Right off the bat, we're talking about Base Frequency of: 3.70GHz(i5) vs 2.60GHz(i7). And then Turbo Boost clock of: 4.60GHz(i5) vs 4.50GHz(i7). 6 cores for both of them, but threads are 6(i5) vs 12(i7). TDPL 95W(i5) vs 45W(i7)
GPU: RTX 2060 Desktop (octane 6) vs RTX 2070 Mobile (recoil 2). I don't think there is anything indicating these facts in the configurator, about which one having mobile GPU and which one having the real desktop GPU. But I'm pretty sure that I got the GPU types correct. So again, here you have a seemingly weaker GPU in RTX 2060 with only 6GB VRAM vs 8GB for RTX 2070, but I imagine the comparison is never that straightforward. This is where I need some assistance too.
RAM: 16GB for both, don't see any difference. 2x8 sticks clocked at 2666MHz.
SSD: NVME Samsung 970 EVO Plus, 1TB version.
Price: €2005 for Octane VI vs €1939 for Recoil II RTX.
I made the price limiting factor and worked around it. €100 plus minus isn't a big deal. The laptop would be basically desktop replacement. I just don't wanna build a PC myself and worry about it when moving houses. It's exclusively for gaming. Let's just assume that I'll play any and every AAA games. the most demanding, the most power and resource hungry games. When it comes to future proofing, I'd expect 5 years of decent service. When it can't hit 60FPS in the latest games, that's when it will bite the dust. I'd really appreciate any feedback on this.
I'm also aware that 1440p panels could be in stock soon, but then again, who knows. They were supposed to be available in late may too, but that didn't happen.
Edit 1: Oh and forgot to post the dimensions of both laptops:
Recoil II RTX -> 395.7mm x 260.8mm x 27.45mm. Weighs at 2.5KG
Octane VI -> 418mm x 295.3mm x 40.9mm Weighs at 3.9KG
