GTX 1070 laptop power consumption

[Mohamed_45]

I'm looking at Cyberpowerpc laptop with a GTX 1070 and a i7 7700HQ, but concerned that it comes with 150w power adapter, is the power adapter good enough for this much power ?
Please help solving this problem
Laptop is :
Cyberpowerpc Tracer II TVR15600
I7 7700HQ
16GB / 250GB SSD / GTX 1070

Well, yes. If it wasn't sufficient, a larger one would be in the build...
Are you confusing laptop(less power consumption) parts with desktop(more) ones?

The asus strix GL502VS has a 180w power adapter and have many complaints about laptop discharging while gaming,the MSI GT62VR Dominator Pro has a 230w power adapter and works without hiccups, so you tell me is the power sufficient for this graphics card?

1)That discharging is fixed with a BIOS update.
2)There are multiple GL502VS models... different packages, and thus the included power adapters are not the same size... need to be a little more specific on that one.
3)Speaking of packages, the laptop in your original post is likely lacking in features, and thus, no need for a bulkier adapter. If you were to add some more to it, then it would warrant a larger one.

The GTX 1050 requires less power than the 1060 and the 1060 less than the 1070, that's why I'm asking, features lacking !
You mean G-sync, you can check this one on Amazon, it's just as powerful as other laptops with same specs, so what is th TDP of the mobile version of the 1070 combined with the CPU TDP, to calculate the total power to run this thing without issues

Due to how warm these kinds of laptops run anyway, don't expect them to run that high normally. They will downclock to so as to remain within safe operating temps.

the laptop came with a 230w power adapter and I'm so happy with it : )
