Solved! Gaming Laptop or GOD Desktop?

[Viperonic]

Ok so i am in a large debate on getting a portable gaming laptop or getting a God Like Desktop.

For the laptop i would want it because it is portable and i would take it between my mom's and Dad's houses and i would take it to school for video editing in my Broadcast Class instead of waiting for a workstation there to be available, Plus their adobe is 2 years behind to my adobe so i cant work at home then work at the school computers for my videos.

LAPTOP

P35XV6-PC1 15.6" Notebook FHD IPS 6th Gen Intel Skylake i7-6700HQ NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 GDDR5 8GB VRAM DDR4 2133 16Gx1 RAM 1TB 7200rpm HDD Win 10 Slim and Light Gaming Laptop Computer
Price: $1,399

The Desktop would have to stay at my mom's house and i would not be able to take it to my dad's or school, But it would be a Core i7-7700k 16gb RAM 1TB HDD with a GTX 1080Ti

This sounds like a situation where the portability is important. I'd suggest you go for the laptop. My only suggestion is if you can add an M.2 SSD (256 GB or 512GB) to the laptop for the OS/programs/in-process projects. This will really improve the boot time, program load time and general user performance of the laptop.

I did not mean to vote down i was on my phone when i was looking at the reply, and i was wondering what kind of fps and settings im looking at for games with the laptop if i got it

I would recommend that you wait for max q laptops to come out as these are supposed to be able to play games in a small form factor. The earliest one that is coming out is in july from MSI I think.

Whats the advantage of waiting for the Max Q Laptops, all i see is that they are much thinner and quieter lol

They should offer the same performance of the larger laptops at a thinner chassis.
