DONOHUE07 · 14 Jan 2017 at 18:09

Hi guys, I'm after a cheap laptop for gaming I would prefer a much stronger 1060 but I'm not willing to pay such I high price, I wouldn't want to pay much more £600 is possible.

Cheers

The very cheapest 1050 with an i5 is £800 (or just under)

The cheapest Ti is £1000

Its only just out so they wont be much cheaper for a while I expect

Seems expensive for a what it is really, might just have to track down for a a second hand Lapps with a mobile graphics card then.

Thanks for the reply

The GTX 980M is comparable with the new GTX 1060. You could possible get an older model with a 980m for under a grand if you shop around.

You sure? I thought it was like an old desktop gtx 770?

I need to do some research

The 980M is a great card and clocks really well.

Here's mine with a 4th gen I7 - http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/10136433

More comparable to the desktop GTX 970.

Interesting comparison.

and

If you scroll down both pages it gives the fps for most popular games over the last couple of years.

Ohh yeah, I know them well

I use notebook check loads as well.

Userbenchmark though seems to be a better comparison in my opinion based on the number of submissions.
