I'm in the market to buy a new laptop, and since I plan on doing a bit of gaming on it I want to get a decent one capable of gaming.
So anyway I've narrowed it down to laptops that have either the NVidia 970m(3GB) or the 980m(4GB).
Due to the fact the 980m laptop is a little bigger and costs about $400 more I'm leaning towards the one with the 970m, however I just want to get some people's opinions on whether 3GB of VRAM will be enough to run PC games at 1080p without having to resort to setting everything to low and turning off AA etc. for the foreseeable future?
I'm not enough of a PC gamer to really warrant spending the extra money on the 980m but at the same time I don't want to have to gimp games within the next 2 years just to get playable framerates either...
Any advice would be appreciated.
