1) It's sentence 2 2) It makes complete sense. He's saying he's wondering if it will even have a touch screen as it will have a gamepad for navigation.

If they're working on a next-gen title, it won't be released for about 7 more years. Wonder if they're doing anything for current gen. /s

Just to clarify, I have yet to actually get the 970m to do anything. It has never showed any usage AT ALL.

Not to be rude, but that has nothing at all to do with what I'm talking about here.

Alright, so I recently got a Sager NP8651 with a GTX 970m. I loaded up a game, and noticed the framerate was dreadful, so I quit. Looked at my MSI Afterburner, and noticed the GPU never had any usage at all. I went into the NVIDIA control panel - Global Settings, and went to change the graphics...

"Gamer XTreme" Has an unlocked i7-4790k paired with an R7 250? Good lord. Why are we even promoting this?

Similar performance to Intel's stock cooler with higher noise output? Are you sure it's even a Noctua?

Stupid phone resubmitted that. And I know it would still be maxwell, but the performance difference between an 860m and 970m is just so huge. But yeah, sounds like my best option is to just go with the 860m lol thanks for all the input.

Yeah but the 970m and 980m are huge jumps over the 8xx, leaving a huge gap between the current Maxwell parts, and I would like a maxwell chip lol

Are you talking the desktop or mobile 970/980? I'm not worried about the desktop 960, I'm wondering about the laptop 960m.

Just curious if anyone had heard anything regarding the 960m, or if there would even be one. I'm about to need to buy a laptop for work, and the $1000 price point is about where I'm at, making the 970m/870m a bit out there, and figured if a 960m was incoming I was hoping it would get the same...

Yeah, it's been awhile since you've played then lol

Even with a welcome price drop, it's still not a good idea if you're focusing on gaming. You can get an AMD 860k and a 250x for the same price: PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: AMD Athlon X4 860K 3.7GHz Quad-Core Processor ($77.99 @ Newegg) Video Card: PowerColor...

They're gonna need to drop more than that. The 290x performs just slightly better than the 970, but runs much hotter and much more power draw, yet costs $170 more. Even with this is costs a LOT more, for meager performance gains at the cost of a much bigger, hotter, higher draw card. It'll be...
