Recommendation for graphic work laptop

[Mystech]

Currently looking at the GE72 to do computer graphics work, which is mainly 3d rendering, Product prototyping, Photoshop etc.

Specs are
- i7 6700HQ
-nvidia GTX 970M 3gb DDR5
-17.3" HDD
-8-16 gb ddr4 ram
-128GB Sata +1 tb hdd

This is to replace my aging MSI GE60. Portability isn't really an issue, more as a desktop replacement cause I dont have the space for a desk setup.

Anyone has one and a review? and if anyone has another to reccomend? its 2500, bit pricey for me...

Hi, given your budget, would you like to consider Aftershock S-17? Their configuration are flexible according to your needs. At $2682, you can get a 8Gb GTX 970M with 16GB DDR4 RAM which I feel it is an ideal and safe configuration for your rendering in the long run.

ohhh this does look good. Specially the 980 Graphic card. Maybe I should wait for the next fair, save some money and push my budget up to 3k to get more ram...
