Hi guys, my CLEVO-P17SM recently died, it was one of the old "VORTEX" laptops from pcs. I was very happy with it and probably would have used it for another year, but sadly it wasn't to be.
I was looking for a new laptop and am doubting between 17.3 "RECOIL III RTX, with i7 9750H processor and GeForce RTX 2070 gpu and 17.3" DEFIANCE V RTX - i7 8750H, GeForce RTX 2080 Max-q.
The other components are the same:
Chassis & Display
Defiance Series: 17.3 "Matte Full HD 144Hz 72% NTSC LED Widescreen (1920x1080) or

Overall I guess I'm just wondering how big the performance difference will be between 8750h + 2080 max q v 9750h + 2070
The laptop will be used for games + Adobe Photoshop CC and 3D MAX
Appreciate any help.
