Gtx 755m sli vs gtx 860m

[Justin Kim]

Iwant a gaming laptop in about 900& to 1000& gaming laptop and found lenovo y510p dual sli i7 for 970$ on amazon and found other manufactures like asus and msi using gtx 860m and the specs and the price was the same. Which is faster and has more fps?

sli will slightly edge out the 860m. But not all games will scale nicely with sli, uses three to four times as much power, will run very hot, and fan noise will be very loud.

Overall at same price, its not worth sli over a single card even remotely close to performance

755M SLI is slightly better than 860M. 870M is better than 755M. 880M is the best, and most expensive. 870M is the best bang for our buck. The Lenovo is a fantastic laptop!

I dont really care about battrylife and the hotness or the sound because i have a laptop fan and i use laptop usually in my desk ill take laptop about 3time a month so will it be better for getting sli 755m than a 860? I want a future proof laptop which will last the performance longer? Thanks
