My PC has aged quite a bit now, it's been a good few years since I did anything with it (it has a GTX 470 in it) and since I've bought a house it doesn't fit my needs any more because I need to have something I can use from the sofa.
I'm looking to buy something that I can use for work, the occasional photo editing and a bit of gaming. I've been on consoles for years but the Nintendo switch has made me realise that I can find time for gaming again.
I have a hard limit of £1200 and I've spotted the ASUS GL502VM-FY497T ROG Strix 15.6-inch Full HD Gaming Laptop (Titanium) - (Intel Core i5-7300HQ, 8 GB RAM, 128GB SSD + 1TB HDD, Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB Graphics, G-Sync for that price, is this laptop any good? It seems to be the cheapest that features a GTX 1060 but only an i5 which I understand could lead to bottlenecks. Would something with an i7-7700 and 1050ti be more rounded and better?
Thanks for any advice
