Hi, what do you have in mind for the laptop i.e. what are your intended uses?

 

[Juggernaut]

Well i want to use it for intense gaming and also school work ( i take design sorta stuff) i was considering an rtx 2070 for it but i want to stay below 1750ish. I was also debating the recoil or defiance

If 15.6" was an option I'd suggest the Vortex for the gsync.

I don't think 2 x 1 TB SSDs are very good value at all. Get a 1TB M.2 SSD and an HDD if you need a mass storage.

Otherwise the spec seems fine. If 17.3" is a must, I'd probably go with the Recoil, which I believe is less expensive.

The RTX 2060 is good value for money and gives great fps. Personally I went for the 2070 (should be arriving soon), hoping that will last a while. As suggested above I would consider getting a M.2 SSD. Also definitely get the gold warranty, it is only a few £s more and makes more sense when getting a performance gaming laptop. If something goes wrong with it after 1 year you could end up with a hefty repair bill. As to whether the config is worth it, yes, getting that config in pretty much any other brand would be closer to £2K.
