    I am looking for a new laptop to buy in the (hopefully) near future.
    I would like to at least have:
    An Intel I5
    8GB RAM
    Nvidia GTX 1050Ti 4Gb VRAM
    I prefer to have:
    Intel I5 or I7
    8 or 16 GB RAM
    Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB
    I'm not picky about a hard drive because I've already got a couple.

    This is the one I have been looking at.

    I'm trying to go with Dell, and as cheap as possible.
    I feel like if I go with the 7577 I think it has better value and performance for the price tag. I'm looking for some thing under $1000.

    What's your opinion? I'm not lost or anything, just want to see what you think. (It may help also) I am looking at a laptop that is affordable, good quality, reliable, and is capable of running BeamNG over 60 FPS on decent settings. (And doing some Blender stuff too, iGPUs don't cut it.)
    I have been looking at this by the way.

    That's why I prefer a 1060.

    I have the same laptop, it's a really good device. (well, I got the 1050 Ti version since the 1060 one is too expensive on my area)
    Also, you could also consider this, as the 7577 is quite old now.

    I'd get that, but the 1060 seems a little expensive for me. Looks like a good value though. The nice thing about it is that it has the latest Intel CPU.

    Yeah, As BeamNG is more CPU-intensive, the extra cores might be handy.
