You appear to be ignoring the sentiment and market share stats. Very convenient. :thinking:

If you actually look at the stats properly, the 980M has a higher user rating. But you're saying I should buy the significantly slower card because it has a bigger market share? Okayyyyyyyyy

no, still better than a gtx1050ti but at this price I would expect a gtx1060 instead

This ticks most of the boxes for an affordable gaming laptop. Sure you'd like a newer GPU and 7 / 8 series CPU, but you'd need to add over £100 to the price and choose a less reliable brand.

Not much in it between 1060m and a 980m, but the appeal here is the 17” screen, large ssd, cpu and 17” screen. I’ve not seen this beaten for value, largely because its last years tech.

How have they implemented the dual-screen setup? Does the second 17" screen fold out? :stuck_out_tongue:

In terms of raw gaming power the 980m is a very good laptop GPU but it is less efficient, hotter and overall less powerful than the 1060. I also wouldn't spend a grand on a GPU, which because of it's age, which will have less driver support going forward.

It looks like the 980M is 40% better than the 1050Ti:
