Should I pay another $350 to go from 970m to 980m?

[Hernro]

I've been debating this for a long long time, it seems that both are great options. I have the money to buy the 980m although I'm a little hesitant to pay so much money for a gaming laptop. It's my first time. Will I really see an improvement and will it pay off at the end when newer games demand more power?

1. Games like Black Ops 3, the witcher 3, batman Dark knight, Star citizen, CS GO, SWTOR, and any of the AAA games.

2. Not too crazy about that. I don't want the difference to be very noticeable.

3. No. I would like to play on medium to high settings at least.

I just noticed that the 980m one has an IPS screen while the 970m one does not.

Answer these questions :

1. What games will you be playing?

2. Is FPS crazy important to you?

3. Do you plan on playing every game at max settings?

i would say no, depending on how much $350 is to you.
and that you can build a desktop from used parts for the same price,
to reach the same medium/high settings.
