Both of these are great 15.6" and 17.3"

Both I7, PCIe SSD, GTX 1060, 1080p Display and under £1,500.

Don't pay the premium for kabylake CPU's it's not worth the costs for the negligible performance increase, around 5%.

Hi There,

As you are looking to play things like WoW then your budget of £1500 is a little overkill. We have just launched this with OcUK and stock is due in the next week https://www.overclockers.co.uk/laptops-and-tablets/gaming-laptops/nvidia-gtx-970m

17.3" FHD
i7 6700HQ
GTX 970M
256Gb SSD + 1TB
8Gb DDR IV

At £999 this is a bargain and you will still have plenty of change left for a decent monitor and mouse :)

Hi,

Just noticed the link that MiSJAH posted for the 17.3 version sold out yesterday, here is the replacement;

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/giga...-intel-i7-6700hq-gaming-laptop-lt-07u-gi.html

The difference between this and the predecessor is the new version has 2400MHz DDR4 ram (previous was 2133MHz),,, everything else the same.

Hope that helps,

Regards,
