To be fair, I plan on getting the base $999 model and putting a geforce 1080 in the breakout box supporting a 5k monitor, or 5 1400p monitors in portrait mode. I don't really leave the desktop often unless I'm using the laptop in bed.

I'm pretty sure that I read a 1060 or 1070 saturates the Razer Cores bandwidth, I may be wrong but bear that in mind. I think, specifically, I read a review where only 80-85% of the 1070 was able to be used fully, so I doubt throwing a 1080 into the mix will be a net gain. Just mentioning it so you make sure to research it before you spend the cash.
You are correct. That is incredibly disappointing.
