Really good price for the specs from what I've researched. Other retailers sell a similar model but only have 8GB of RAM or 128GB SSD.
The only comparative deal I've found is the Asus GL702VM with the 20% off Futu ebay code for $2079.20
HDMI 2 is still rare, but this does come with Mini DP 1.2 though which can do UHD @ 60Hz.
Good deal, apart from the large size and heavy weight. These are for people who use them as desktop otherwise I couldn't care less about the HDMI port!
This looks perfect for Mass Effect Andromeda:

I don't know how a 6700HQ compares to 3570 or 4790.
Laptop CPUs are low TDP and are not directly comparable to the same class desktop CPUs.

The i7 4790 is about 20% faster than the 6700HQ.
This website is great for comparing computer hardware.
How well does the 6700HQ overclock?
Actually nvm. EA didn't specify the K models.
Been looking at these laptops. The MSI has the GTX 1060 - 3GB version. The ASUS GL702VM has the 6GB version, it also has G-Sync and Thunderbolt 3 (good for future proofing e.g. hook-up external GPU). With 20% off from Futu at @ $2080, i think the Asus is better value. You do get additional 1 year warranty from MSI.
ASUS ROG GL702VM-GC005T:

MSI GE72VR 6RF Apache:

The MSI's GTX 1060 comes with 6GB and the ASUS panel is only 60Hz according to their descriptions. Harvey doesn't say whether the panel is the 120Hz one.

HDMI output is only 30hz 4k.
If you are spending $2000 on laptop then HDMI should be atleast 60hz 4k.
