GTX 980 ti or 2014-2015 MacBook Pro?

I already have a 970.

I travel a lot and my current 2011 windows laptop is dying on me. I need something for video editing, music dev, Photoshop and other design products. Also need one for school.

Any Nvidia "Titan" card is designed for workstation tasks like rendering.

And yes, this is coming from an enthusiast. But since he needs a computer for school, the MacBooks (despite a high premium) are very good and have outstanding battery life, which solves your current laptop's problem.

Unless you plan on lugging around a tower, monitor, and all the other stuff to school.

The XPS 13 is an excellent choice as well, another light and mobile laptop that would suit your needs.

hold on before you do anything stupid and buy a titan or macbook
consider looking at the performance tests for the 980ti, charts show that it outperforms the Titan and it costs cheaper

@tnt

you obviously don't know what you're talking about. do you even know what a 980ti is? i'll give you a hint, they're not even available for purchase. they're nvidia's newest GPU
