Looking for 13"-15.6" Pascal Laptop (1060) which is discrete/sleek enough looking for work - $2000 CAD
-
Total budget and country of purchase: $2000 CAD, Canada
-
Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications to your requirements for the money? Pick or include any that apply. I would like a laptop with 1060 and if it's possible with decent battery life (3+ hours) that would be great.
-
How important is weight to you? Somewhat important, I don't want to be lugging around a brick everyday.
-
Which OS do you require? Windows, Linux, Mac. Windows/Linux
-
Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. 14"-15.6"
-
Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. If you have no requirements, put N/A. Light Gaming, F1 2016 & Rocket League are on my mind right now.
-
If you're gaming (leave blank if you put N/A above...), do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? F1 2016, High, 60FPS
-
Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable business grade build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? Good keyboard, quality screen (1080p+) with low bezels would be great, and I would like good build quality as well. If it can be under 1" thick that would be awesome too.

Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion:
I am looking for a sleek/discrete laptop with 1060 ideally (could go for 970m or something if really required) and something which doesn't look ugly/flashy and small bezels (I noticed a lot of gaming laptops have really big bezels near the screen).
The razor blade with the 1060 hasn't come out yet AFAIK, and would be well over $2K CAD I think. There's the 1060 evga laptop I have no idea how much that's gonna go for. There's also the aorus, although I'm not sure how sleek looking it is or how much it costs or if it's even available yet. EDIT: I realize that the AORUS X3 PLUS V6-PC3K4D costs $2100 USD on Xotic PC which is a little more than I'd like to spend but I can manage this if required. The only issue is that there are no reviews for this machine out yet.
I appreciate any input/feedback and would like to thank you in advance for it!
