    Hi All,

    I'm looking to get a new laptop primarily to run Prepar3D v4 (latest version of FSX) as best as I can. despite advances made in later versions, it's till very much a CPU bound program. As such I've narrowed it down too two choices, the p775dm3 or p870km.

    I'd be looking at a HIDEvolution build with the i7-7700K de-lidded and overclocked to 4.7GHz, a single 1070 or 1080, and most likely a FHD IPS screen.

    Basically is there much difference between the two models in a single GPU setup? Is the cooling better on one over the other? Any other differences I should be aware of?

    Thanks in advance, Michael.
