Before we start; I want to thank you all for taking the time, and so to waste any more of it..

I'm in the market for a laptop (obv) *preferably* under 2k. I don't care if I need 2 people to move it around (lol).

Main thing is a gtx 1060 since I'm assuming it's a great performance per dollar gpu right now. As well as a 120hz display, so I get silky smooth visuals with my desired 17.3". 500gb ssd (m.2 or not idc). It's strictly gaming, no streaming/editing/touchscreen etc. I know a lot about desktops but nothing about laptops so I refer to the experts.
Mainly game WoW, Smite, BF4. No crysis7, witcher8, arkham day.

I travel a lot now so a bulky machine would be better so I don't have to worry about things breaking in transit. 17.3 display, gtx 1060, 120hz. Im willing to go up or down on the budget as long as the reasoning is there. Thx and cheers.

Pretty good looking laptop. To follow up, will the gtx1060 get full use of 120hz display if I max out settings? Anyone else care to respond? Would like a few options before I pull the trigger. I'm currently at work but will look at it in detail later tonight. Also, am I right in assuming the gtx1060 is a great bang for buck piece atm?

Yea in dollars. I was looking at the gt72 1070 for 1700. I kind of upped it from the 1060 cuz it more potent than the 1060 and not much more expensive
