Hi, I'm looking to buy a Gaming Laptop for Christmas from PC Specialists. The Octane IV.

My specs are:
Intel I7-8700K
16 GB RAM
Windows 10
17.3 Inch Screen
120 hz Screen
Graphics Card: Undecided.

I need help with my GPU. Should I get a GTX 1070 or GTX 1080? I'm looking to play latest games and go on FL Studio 12 and run my HUGE songs smoothly. I can spend £1850 but I'm not sure if I should increase my budget and make it better.
Help?
 


Eum does it need to be portable because:
A. it has a beast cooling solution and is massive since it has a desktop cpu to prevent it from overheating
B. it's small and will overheat making the extra money spent not worth it
Can you maybe link it?
Since adding a 1080 could just make the laptop run worse than with a 1070 due to heat issues.
 


Yeah with that thin of a laptop I wouldn't push for a 1080 at all. Also that screen will have bad viewing angles and colors since it's a tn panel just thought i'd let you know.

I know. I have 3 monitors on my actual PC. My PC is i7-6700K with GTX 1080Ti and 32GB 2400MHz RAM but I wanted something portable. 2 Of my monitors are 144hz TN Panels and one is a 60hz IPS Panel. I know what they are :)
