gollark: I guess it would be good if you get one of the thin-and-light sort of laptops.
gollark: The Legions have RTX 2060/3060 and up options anyway, so your eGPU isn't really necessary.
gollark: The newer Intel models have Tiger Lake CPUs, so very good single-core performance.
gollark: I got a (somewhat outdated, used) Lenovo Legion 5 recently, which is pretty nice.
gollark: Although if you only have a 1060 the eGPU might not be much use, since you can get better GPUs inside laptops nowadays.
