The thing with gaming laptops is that you can't upgrade the GPU or CPU, so it's best to get the best you can afford to keep the life of the machine that bit longer, the first bottleneck will always be the GPU.

Normally, at your high budget I would suggest the vortex which is by far the best gaming chassis, but it looks like stocks have run out. And the one you've configured is about the most powerful they currently have available.

TBH, I hate to say it, but I wouldn't order any from this selection. While the 1660ti is a great card for 1080p right now, it's not going to last for very long at all and you'll be looking at lower FPS and lowered settings within about 2 years max which is crazy.

At your budget, we'd normally be speccing out a vortex with an RTX2070 which would last for a long time.

I would suggest holding off. It's possible that PCS are in the middle of a chassis update, although given the situation, I highly doubt it. Either way, now is not the time to buy.

Wow thank you for the advice. I'll hold off then if I have the chance of getting better for about the same in a while.

Thank you again

Yeah, your budget will allow for a top of the range spec. All these currently available are mid range.
