Been looking for new gaming laptop with 1070 or 1080 geforce gtx. Trying to stay just below $2,000. I currently have a MSI. After purchasing this one, I don't want to deal with MSI again.
I've had problems with the killernetwork/qualcomm components, and key lag due to fast overheating of the GPU during gameplay.
Would also prefer to have i7 intel. The only one that I have found is currently out of stock but was curious see what other people thought of the laptop I found or if anyone had any other laptops to post up.

I'd probably wait a bit. See how these new ones with the 1000 series grfx parts do, heat wise.

When I did powerful gaming laptops the last few years, I only went with

I also, only used the sager models because they are the best company reliability wise, heat wise, and cost.

They have plenty of models with the 1070, you'll just have to read up on them to see which one is suitable for you.

I don't think any laptop is going to cost under 2k with a 1080.
