Gigabyte p57xv6 ne2 or Asus gl702vm-ds74. Both are from Newegg, 1499 ea. Asus has 7700 cpu and gtx1060 , the Gigabyte has 6700 cpu and gtx1070. I will be doing some gaming, anyone familiar with these? which would you choose?

Definitely Gigabyte. GTX 1070 is a great GPU and significantly faster than gtx 1060.

thanks. I know the 1070 is better for gaming than the 1060, but overall is it a better machine for the other tasks?
I will use it for some gaming, but other tasks mostly. Never had a Asus or Gigabyte, so not sure which would fit the bill.
