Hi,
I'm looking for a 17" laptop for the above use cases. Probably older games that have been reduced e.g. Starcraft 2, Far Cry 3 etc. The ability to run a decent test lab is important too.
So I want a laptop with a powerful CPU, lots of RAM, some fast SSD and a moderate GPU. I've looked at the various laptops available and it seems that the price will be largely dependant on which GPU I go for.
Based on the above, do you think it would be a bad idea to save a couple of hundred £ and buy a lower end GPU like the 1050 or, given the amount of money that all of the other components will push the price up to, spend a little more on a 1060 or 1070 to further future-proof it?
Thanks
