    Mine is sitting on 1080p 75hz with 75fps comfortably in Witcher 3 with all possible settings maxed (G-Sync turned on, and it looks bloody AMAZING!), but apparently the 4K screens don't go past 64Hz I believe... Metabox in Australia had listed 4K 120Hz monitors as 'coming soon' on the day of the 10XX series notebook release, but have since amended it to only 1080p 120Hz coming soon with no word on a 4K 120Hz monitor. This doesn't fuss me too much really, as the frame rates would drop too low for good gaming in my personal opinion... but I will be upgrading to the 1080p 120hz when it is released :)

    You need 2x 1080 SLI to maintain 60 FPS (benchmarks show 60-75fps) in the Witcher 3, what would the benefit of 4K 120hz be, haha? Maybe if you play less demanding games. I guess the sweet spot would be a 1440p 120hz display, if only we had one available :)

    True... I think that on a single GTX 1080 (even with a mild OC) it may be a challenge for it to keep up with 1080p 120fps consistently...

    I'm torn -- for the 15" -- do you think I'd be okay with the 1920x1080 screen @ 75hz + G-sync? I'm not sure I can wait for the other displays to be released.

    You would be okay, although it's always a scenario at that point wherein if you put the two screens side by side you would want the 120hz one, but I would say you might not notice a deficit if you only had the 75hz monitor. As a subjective opinion, the 75hz monitor really looks brilliant when gaming :)

    MSI 120Hz 5ms is purported to be flawed with >5ms response, checkout notebookcheck.net because of LG skimped out on quality, Whereas Clevo 120Hz 5ms AUO FHD panel is quite better i guess, Hope It gets that GSync license soon.

    I will be purchasing this beast soon, not too sure which reseller I'll be choosing, I am seriously considering Dream machines.pl, as they are a Prema partner, I was wondering if anyone here ever bought a laptop through them, I was also wondering if Prema modded bios/vbios was up and running already on the 1080 model .

    My friend got P775Dm1 from Dreammachines. As far as I know he is happy. But Dreammachines resseler also expensive (p775dm3 with 4k and 1080 is 2.5k pln more than from xtreem.pl).

    I'm not the least bit interested in 4K, the config I want is within 50-100 euro's of the price I get on Hyperbook for the same thing, but I get the added value of Prema bios/vbios (which I'd gladly pay that much for).

    Edit: just checked Extreem.pl, you are right, they are quite a bit cheaper, about 2000pln, but not nearly as many options, like no keyboard layout option, no OS language option, I am not Polish so that is problematic, their prices seem inline with PCspecialist, except there you get more options .

    If you read that review again you'll see that they updated it and its a 60hz screen and not the 120hz one.

    At this point we dont have a reliable review of any of the 120hz screens. Either MSI, Clevo or Asus.

    I guess i'll have to wait for them. It's so hard to eait... ;)

    I couldn't agree more. I was told from a reliable source that the current 120hz on the Clevo's won't be gsync-able ever since the GPU's are actually different ie. they need to be 'gsync GPU's' . For example even if the panel was swapped one would be SOL.

    Then I'm also not sure the specs of the 120hz gsync that are coming..
    Is it an IPS 25ms and/or a TN 5ms on offer? Sheesh.

    My P751DM2-G has finally shipped from pc-konsulten.se, hopefully I will have it tomorrow. It's almost barebone with only CPU i3-6100, GTX1070 and Wifi 8260, no ram, no hdd.. I got it for 1570€, consider that CEG charges 1246€ for a single GTX1070 mmx card, so I'm happy about the price. Now I'll swap the ram, ssd and cpu from the my old P751DM.

    It seems that the Clevo one is an AOC AHVA type. It's kind like an IPS. The thing is that it's not G-sync. And 120hz with G-sync is the perfect combination.
    The 120hz on the MSI GT73 is g-sync... It's been confirmed. Just don't know the quality.

    I'll wait for proper feedback.

    As been said before, that review on notebookcheck has been updated and the screen they tested was 60hz and not the new 120hz one. ;)

    From the review:
    (August 22, 2016 correction: Our test model is equipped with a 60 Hz panel and not a 120 Hz panel as previously mentioned. The 120 Hz/5 ms panel is still a separate option for the GT72VR)

    I will pass the P751DM to my 10 year old son, so I guess the CPU will be fine for him. He's already using my steam account for Team Fortress, so now I can have my own computer again...

    Wow thanks for this...Either they give me that 4K 120Hz screen, or they'd better give me some free upgrades to compensate false advertising lol. Maybe the 950 Pro or 64GB 2400Mhz DDR4.

    Metabox listing 4k 120hz as an option is just an VERY optimistic placeholder. There's only just talk of a standalone display coming with those specs.

    The 60Hz 1920x1080 IPS. It's imho a decent screen, does have some lightbleed, but I was able to fix that on my P751DM.

    Using prime and heaven the temps maxed at 84 degrees for the CPU, and the GPU peaked at 75 degrees, both OC'd as per my imgur link.

    Has anyone done any stock/real-world tests? Stress tests and overclocks with max fans are interesting, but what I'm really interested in is info like "after playing Witcher/WoW/Dota2 at max options for 1 hour, how hot did everything get and how loud was it?" since that's going to be my actual usage 99% of the time.

    When I get mine from Mythlogic (hopefully in a week or two) I'll do some tests like that, if no one beats me to it.

    No, I never tried that. I read somewhere that the LG Philips LP156WF6 is not a good overclocker. You might be able to squeeze it up to 63-64Hz before it goes blank.

    Yay, finally something new. For some reason this model received much less attention than the P870DM3. Looking forward to some additional bench numbers and temps.

    Wait...are those mini DP ports? The model I saw had the old chassis with normal DP ports...so there are P775 laptops with GTX1080 which use the old chassis?
    Is there any difference besides this? Everything else seems the same.

    That looks sexy!!!
    Loving those thermal pads though, they seem to be the squishy shape confirming types. Wish they used the same ones in the P870DMX. That would make everyone life easier.

    Btw. i still haven't forgotten about you know what. Just barely getting any time and i would hate to mess up the positioning. :p
