    best gtx 1050 laptop?

    I would argue this https://tinyurl.com/j2vcnxw is the best 1050 laptop. But your question really depends on what you want from your laptop and your budget. For a generic 1050 laptop I like the hp omen, although if you need to tweak the bells and whistles other brands become better buys (ie ssd...

    1060 vs 1070 laptop version

    A 1060 is good enough for Most people to play on 1080 Currently. A 1070 will grant more longevity of your laptop and better "future proofs" it. It really depends on the budget, and how long you want the laptop to last. I would recommend the 1070 if you want the laptop to last more then 2...

    Is it worth?

    Is it worth the $70 probably not, but it does make things easier to read, it does not really help increase concentration. It does reduce the portability of the laptop most laptop bags are for laptops under 17" it also makes it more difficult to find a place to set it down. If the price was...

    I would look at the benchmarks in the link below to get an idea if it can play games. It appears to be able to at a 720 resolution with low settings. Some games can be played on somewhat better settings. http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-940MX.156033.0.html for waht it's worth I...

    Recommended laptop for School and gaming

    I would recommend this https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834234299&ignorebbr=1 It protable somewhat light weight and has the capability of playing games. I do want to reiterate. With any gaming laptop you will not be able to play games unplugged for any length of time.

    Good laptop to customize

    While I do not recommend it, you could purchase a "barebone" laptop kit and add the parts required. I know nothing of rjtech but a barebones kit that just has CPU, GPU and screen might be what you are wanting. (it would probably be cheaper to buy a fully configured gaming laptop)...

    Best laptop for animation/gaming at college

    I want to add a few things, You need to find a laptop that is 15.6" or smaller. I would NOT recommend a 1070 as they produce more heat and typically those models have larger batteries (more weight). Most "gaming" laptops are not designed to play games without being plugged in and on a desk...
