Where can I check which PC is more powerful?

[rfalla3]

Currently I have this Asus ROG G751JT

Has a I7-4720HQ 2.6Ghz has a max of 3.6
GTX 970m 3gb vram
16gb ram
1 TB hard drive

This is not powerful enough for VR and I want to upgrade into this https/www.amazon.com/dp/B06Y4GZS9C/ref=psdc_13896615011_t1_B073ZND1FZ

And that is cheaper than what I originally paid for my pc. But gaming wise how much more can I expect? And is there no downsides to upgrading? Is there a better option out there?

Did you check the oculus rift website? I think they should have something. But with your specs, you look like your scraping the surface with your current setup. That laptop your looking at should be fine for vr

i'd suggest that the laptop would be very similar, perhaps 10% quicker.

^ a lot more than 10% when it comes to the gpu.

The 970m was a fairly cut down spec from the desktop gpu (although still excellent in its day).

The 1060 mobilenis very close to a fully fledged desktop gpu.

You're looking bare minimum of around 40% more gpu processing power there , in some scenarios closer to 60%.

Its a fairly big upgrade there.
