    Well.... it really depends on what kind of program you run. Honestly, if you have GTX 980m or more, you should be fine. I currently have P770ZM, with GTX980m, and I am currently happy with my system, and am not planning to change my system for 2 ~ 3 years.

    Yes...I know that. it's an MSI GTX 1070 card pulled from an MSI 16L13 that Eurocom sells as the Eurocom Tornado F5.

    What we are asking you is which graphics card do you currently have in your system? So we can tell you if it's worth it or not to upgrade.

    In that case, I would only upgrade if you can at least sell the GTX 980 for a decent price.

    I'd try to sell it and buy the newer P870DM2/3 with 1080 or 1080 SLI.
