Laptop 1060 or 1070 in Japan

[WakaBam46]

So I am currently in Japan and I do plan on staying here for like 5 years with computer being F-ing expensive as hell here. So the price difference between a 1060 and 1070 is about $300 so I am wondering if the 1070 is worth the money.

Currently I am using a 830m card and I've never experienced 60fps gameplay unless its like warband or strategy games which I play mostly. Have to go with laptop due to how my internet is setup here. I plan on using just 1080p but I might want to add a second monitor later. Constant 60fps gameplay is semi not important for me since I don't play that many first person shooters and I don't mind dialing back a the settings a little. As long as I can play on high I should be fine. Though I do play Elite and Warhammer.

Thank you guys for your replies.

If you are going from an 830m, a 1060 is a huge upgrade. If you can play your games on the old laptop, they will run amazingly compared to that on a 1060.

Do you think it would be able to play games coming out next year on high settings?

Depends on type of game, if you are worried about being able to maintain higher settings for longer, get the 1070.
