    I am going to sell my top of the line SP4 for a slim gaming laptop. The SP4 is just too much of a compromise for me. Most modern games run like complete crap, even games like Xcom2.

    When can the 1080m be available for purchase in the likes of P35x? Is the 1080m going to require a thicker chasis like th 980m vs 970?

    Thanks

    Somewhere around September is a safe bet.

    It won't require thicker laptops than those which held a 980M.

    No one knows anything. If someone gives you a date or tdp estimate they are just speculating.
