Screen / GPU Question

[humanlaptop]

Ive been looking at a ASUS ROG with a 3070 card, the screen is 15" and goes upto 1080p.. now for 200 quid more I can get the 3080 card with the same screen, also an ASUS.

Now do you lose a lot of the benefit of having these cards by using them on a screen that is 1080p? Should I be looking at a 1440p screen or better?

There wont be any chance ill run the game via a monitor, its all about sofa gaming for me as easy as it can be.

I wasnt really looking to spend 2000, 1700 was tops.. but if I can get the top end card for that small of a jump im tempted, but am I going to see much benefit on 1080p gaming?

Its the ASUS with the 7 Ryzen 5800H, so its a good CPU for a laptop I believe, plus both the cards are in the 130w category, so one of the better options for both I believe.

So really if im just gaming at 1080p, stick to the 3070 and save a few quid.

Yeah. The 3080 is only a marginal improvement over the 3070 anyway (in laptops). At 1080P I’d defo opt for the 3070.

Thanks mate, appreciate that. I was tempted but this makes sense.
