I want to buy a gaming laptop next month and I can't decide between these two:
Core i7 with 1050ti
Core i5 with 1060
I want to mostly game, do a bit of work and do some light video editing (maybe vr). I'm decent at recognizing computer parts but i can't decide between these two. A laptop with an Intel Core i7-7700hq paired with GTX 1050ti or a laptop with a Intel Core i5-7300hq paired with a GTX 1060. Both are basically the same execpt for these two factors. Please help solve this problem by telling me. How will the i5 affect performance compared to the i7 because I want the 1060 instead of the 1050ti.

1060 is much for powerful than 1050ti.. about 60% faster when comparing FLOPS. There will be a great difference in gaming performance between 1060 and 1050ti. There is little to no difference between 7300hq and 7700hq WHEN GAMING.

It's a different story when comes to content creation. Most content creation programmes will run faster on 7700hq. The 7300hq is no slouch though and still offers acceptable performance for content creators.

So, if gaming is the number 1 priority, get the 1060
