With RTX laptops slowly making their way to the market here, can we expect a good price drop for GTX laptops? Or are they gonna slowly remove them completely? Like with the STRIX SCAR II laptops, seems like the only difference is the GPU, everything else is the same but they seem to be offering both at the moment.

For Malaysia market, I think no (most likely)

Even there is promotion the discount may not be that much

Oh wow, then I really wonder how they're gonna clear stock for the GTX laptops. If I'm gonna be spending a lot, might as well go RTX straight sweat.gif

Stock in Malaysia market is limited. Thus, easier to clear and unlikely to have huge price drop.

Not sure about laptop, probably just a little price drop. Still too expensive to afford, given the budget 5k can afford at most gtx 1000 series.

I'm targeting desktop, hopefully I'm able to build an rtx 2060 in my desktop within 5k

I don't think local seller wanna sell them cheap to clear stock since the RTX2060 laptop cost more right?

I'm hoping to see GTX1660 Ti and GTX1650 in laptop soon! Should make a cooler and cheaper gaming laptop without those RT cores in new 12nm process.

agree with what you say, unless RTX series laptop really stuck on market for some times price drop then only effect GTX series laptop

Normally Malaysia re-seller/distributors adjust prices quarterly, so wait next quarter to see price change.

Right now pricing is nonsensical because new models are coming in but prices are not adjusted for older models sweat.gif

I agree with you go for the RTX cards if pricing is close.

Even if games don't use Ray tracing now, 20series cards have much better performance vs previous 10series cards.

RTX2060 has increased CUDA cores and faster GDDR6 RAM vs GTX1060.

Manufactures are adjusting prices to account for newer models.

So it's weird to see RTX2060 model cost less than GTX1060 mega_shok.gif
How to justify >RM1.6k difference and lower spec Alienware.

wow rm 8999 for 1070 spec. thats dumb, better off going with illigear and getting rtx 2070 selenite for rm 8k. this is just typical case of paying for brand name.

More like Malaysia retailers too slow with price adjustments.
Sell old stock at RRP price puke.gif hunting water-fish.

Local retails sometimes cannot pakai dry.gif

Dell MY and US site Alienware M15 GTX1070's not listed for sale anymore.
