Waiting for 1080M

[spmo]

I fancy buying an Alienware 15 - but I'd like to use it for VR and have resigned to waiting for the 10xx mobile GPUs to be released.

The rumour mill suggests that the 1080 MXM will either be announced on August 1st - or at Gamescom on August 15th.

Would anyone care to guess what the delay will be before the first Alienware laptops with the new cards appear after that?

They wont be coming out with anymore "M" models of laptop GPUs, at least it wouldn't make sense to. All of them will be desktop versions. And you can already buy laptops with 1060, 1070, and 1080 GPUs.
