PC Specialist Fusion II (i7 8750H & GTX 1060 Max-Q) Laptop Review

Rating: 8.0.

The Fusion II from PC Specialist aims to combine elegance with power to create a portable gaming laptop suitable for all scenarios. With the inclusion of an i7 8750H and NVIDIA GTX 1060 (Max-Q) graphics, this is a thin and light gaming laptop that should pack a punch! It also comes at a tempting price of £1199, but how well does it perform?
