Laptop for gaming

Hi all,

Just ordered this, then figured (after the fact) that I really ought to have it checked over by people that actually know what they're doing, rather than rely just on myself (since I don't!), whilst I still [presumably] have a short timeframe to cancel and reorder if needed..

Few points for context:

1. Yes; it needs to be a laptop not desktop
2. Budget is pretty much what I've spent here, I've pushed it as far as I'm comfortable to go
3. Mostly used for gaming - eg wow, civ games, FM, FIFA, Fortnite etc
4. Would like to be able to run most games on high/max settings if possible

Thanks in advance 👍🏼

Thanks for your comment Spyder (though note that your avatar is breaking me out in cold sweats!). I hadn't actually noticed that the 2070 was the Max Q version. I don't pretend to understand most of what was in that link you posted, but do get your fps vs. cost reference.

Thanks again
