I am looking to purchase a new gaming laptop and soon, a new Asus ROG Swift PG278Q gaming monitor to take advantage of the new g-sync technology.
My question is: how powerful of a GPU do I need to run games like sc2/dota2 and a other slightly more demanding games on maxed out settings @ 2560 x 1440 resolution at 40-50fps+ (smooth frame-rates during game play).
Because I want to take advantage of g-sync and will be purchasing a gaming laptop, I will need to get a nvidia GTX 850M - GTX 880M, but because of the 1440 resolution being higher and significantly more demanding then 1080p, I assume I will need a GPU at least as powerful as a GTX 860 or above to get smooth frame-rates.
Does anybody have any experience running games at 2560 x 1440 resolution and what kind of minimum GPU requirements will be required for smooth gameplay?
Moreover, any gaming laptop recommendations are welcome. I am currently trying to decide on a new Alienware 17/18 or a ASUS ROG g750 series. thank you so much in advanced for your feedback.
