1060 or 1070

[Nic_18]

Just bought an alienware 17 with 1060 with 6gb and 256 pcie. But I went to Best Buy and they had the same model for $100 more and it comes with the 1070 8gb and 128 Samsung ssd. Should I return it and get this one, but it also said at Best Buy that they are limited?

you should build your own PC.

but to answer you question, for the 100$ (as far as difference goes) it is very much worth it

yes, definitely it it only costs $100 more. thats a really good deal.
there's a noticeable perf. jump from 1060 to 1070

This is the laptop forum, building your own laptop has a lot more downsides then a pc, Although I will third the $100 is worth the loss of 128GB SSD and a much better video card.

But yeah, can't beat that deal
