Just picked up a new laptop

[Deleted member 1560910]

I just bought a new laptop because i am getting rid of my desktop https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834154731

What kind of performance hit am i going to take in game from my 4790k. Will the 1080 offset things ?

Isn’t the 1080 in the laptop? The cpu and gpu in the laptop should do very well...as for a 4790k, I’ve heard a few others saying it still does alright (of course, not optimal, but an ok pair)

Yes the 1080 is in the laptop

Apologies, but your question wasn’t so clear for me to understand. You want to see how well the 4790k goes with the 1080 or the cpu in the new laptop?

how well the laptop compared to my currrent rig my rig has 4790k with 1070 the laptop has the 7700hq and 1080

The odd thing is that the new cpu performs WORSE than your old cpu. Probably because it was modified to fit in a laptop and not overheat due to little airflow. The gpu comparison is as expected...

DO you think performance will offset ?

I’d have to say the gpu would be bottlenecked. Considering the 4790k as a relatively good match for the 1080 for an older cpu. Looking at some other info, expect the performance of a desktop i5 7400 with a gtx 1060 (POSSIBLY 1070)

Nothing terrible, but the laptop won't perform as well as your desktop did. Laptop parts don't perform as well as their desktop counterparts primarily due to heat; their clockspeed will be lower due to this. A 7700hq is weaker than a 7700k. A 1080(laptop) is also weaker than one in a desktop. In your situation, the desktop is stronger in both areas.

The primary reason for getting a laptop is mobility - the tradeoff being performance(compared to equivalent parts). If mobility wasn't your main reason, then you kind of drew the short stick.

I got the laptop and what a Dis appointment. I dont know why they bothered putting a 1080 in this when playing BF1 gpu usages dropped i around 30 lowest. I dont know what is wrong im sure windows 10 isnt helping

Yea, that's just how it is. Mobility at the cost of performance.
That particular game is programmed to use more cpu than gpu resources.
Your old 4790k setup, due to it's higher clocks would easily yield more fps than the laptop on that game.

My old rig runs BF1 butter smooth. I just think its the game itself. Most cpus have issues running BF1 at a legit fps
