The 1060 is designed to replace the 970 M . Both has the same TDP which is around 75 W or so It ' s quite higher than the 960 MNextgen 7559 would be equipped with a 1050 Ti and so does the XPS 15 As the 1050 Ti has less TDP and it lets them cut back on heat exchanger design for the Inspiron and aim for a thinner system on the XPSFor that budget , to be honest it ' s a bit hard to decide , but the best value for money is on getting an entry level laptop for mobile use and a midrange gaming desktop for desk use . The 1050 Ti laptops will only be as fast as the laptops with a 970 M . If you ' re okay with that , I would recommend going with the outgoing Asus GL 502 VT . However , if you must get the 1060 , the wait will be longer if you ' re aiming for sub 800 dollar laptops . Most likely you ' ll only be able to get second hand laptops . If your budget is around $ 1000 , I would strongly suggest getting this NP 8152 . html . it ' s going to be $ 400 over your budget but as a user of the higher end model , my experience with this laptop is very positive .
