Fearing the SST will be kicking-in soon, spent hours searching and found myself dead-set on Illegear Onyx with GTX 1060 configuration. My four year old GTX 870M lappy looks very outdated now with its huge bezels so this Onyx is something refreshing. I'm not worried bout the fan noise because my old lappy measures at 53 db and I'm already used to that noise. I also think the keyboard sounds cute from the video I've watched.

GTX 1160 is expected to arrive end of October according to rumours, and the prices might be sky high in the few weeks after it is out. Is these few days before Sept the best time to get it, or are the merchants fooling around with our brains?

This is a good budget setup. As long as your OS is in SSD, your boot up time will still be very fast. You can put all your movies and documents in HDD. Important docs, photos, and videos should be sync-ed in cloud storage like OneDrive. With 120GB in your SSD, there is enough space to install all your program files in SSD so they run fast. However games take more space. People normally dont play so many games at a time. Keep your most commonly played games installed in SSD or just uninstall when you know you wont play them for a while. Nowadays broadband are fast, can always download again next time.

Edit: m.2 slot for put SSD, and 2.5" bay for HDD. Too bad your 2.5" SSD is useless here. Need to buy another and make sure it is the m.2 type which is smaller and look like your RAM stick.
