the gtx 1060 will perform at around the same speed as a 980 so it will last probably 2-4 years, and you might have to turn certain games down but the 1070 is obviously better but a lot more money, i would stick with the 1060. Others will tell you to spend more but its not worth it.

plus having 120hz is better than 60 in any case.

The issue isn't so much the gpu but the weight of the laptop as both gpus are going to last for at least 2 years. if you don't mind carrying a heavy laptop then get the 1070. otherwise the 1060 is good as you said you don't mind playing games at medium setting.

velo the 1060 can play most if not all current games at ultra, you would be misleading to suggest otherwise.
