Hi all,
I would like to buy a gaming laptop. I did a quick online research on ASUS ROG series, MSI gaming laptop and HP Omen. However, there are too many models available in the market and I don't know which model is the best deal that I should go for.
1. Preferred brand : Asus/MSI/HP/Dell/Lenovo
2. Budget : Below 5k
3. Usage : Gaming
4. Screen Size : Any
5. OS: Windows 10
5. CPU: i7-6700HQ and above
6. Graphic: GTX960M/965M or GTX1050/1060
7. RAM: 8GB DDR4 and above
8. Storage: 1TB HDD + 128GB SSD
Any good recommendation for the above specification?
Is there a huge difference between GTX9xx series and GTX10xx series in terms of graphic quality? Is it worth paying more to get GTX10xx series?
Besides, did you guys purchase laptop from online sites such as lazada and techhypermart? Are they reliable?
Appreciate your advice and thanks in advance.

QUOTE(pandera999 @ Jan 16 2017, 03:46 PM) G-Sync monitors are very EXPENSIVE.. G-Sync isn't really worth it.. since 1070 already strong enuf... G-Sync is a proprietary format that can only be used with Nvidia cards. Free-Sync on the other hand is a Display Port standard and can be implemented by anyone. The problem is, Nvidia doesn't want to use Free-Sync as that would mean them losing the money they are making from G-Sync. As of right now, Nvidia will not let you use Free-Sync on their video cards... i think no external monitor.... if u wanna use 1.. then get gsync type.. From my understanding, all GTX-10xx series are G-Sync enabled GPU. Is the G-Sync feature limited by the panel technologies VA/TN/IPS and refresh rate? Would you mind to explain more? Sorry for my weak knowledge... |

QUOTE(pandera999 @ Jan 16 2017, 04:21 PM) lets say u take new kaby lake with 1060 gsync... plug in external source, no gsync support. you cant get any display as i believe... You mean if the external source is not G-Sync monitor, then can't get any display? Cannot "OFF" this G-Sync feature to connect the laptop with non-G-Sync monitor? |

QUOTE(Prince J @ Jan 16 2017, 05:33 PM) All the G-sync screens are >60Hz, there are 60Hz, 75Hz and 120Hz G-sync laptop screens in the market so far. I noticed that sometimes the laptop model doesn't specify details about the display screen. It just write 15.6" FHD IPS panel. How do we know the display screen is >60Hz and compatible with G-Sync? |
