How long will a HP Omen 17-an180no last?

I am thinking about a laptop with the following specs:

Intel Core i7-8750H
Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 (6 GB)
16 GB RAM
256 GB SSD
1T SATA
120HZ Refresh rate - Screen

It's called HP Omen 17-an180no!
I have seen that it's a good computer for gaming and that it can run even heavy games at high quality. But my question is:
For how long whould I be able to run games at at least medium quality at 60+ FPS? I mean, when new games get realesed they must of course be harder and harder to run. How long will this machine manage that? I do not currently run games like GTA V or Wither 3 but perhaps I will in the future...
 
It should be good for at least a couple of years on most new titles. Once it starts getting a bit sluggish in games though you could always pop in a new GPU, but don't worry about that now.

EDIT: THIS COMMENT SHOULD BE IGNORED! BUT I'M GONNA LEAVE IT UP TO SHOW THE WORLD THAT YOU SHOULD ALWAYS DO MORE RESEARCH ON SOMETHING!

How do you propose to pop in a new GPU to an HP laptop?

I'd honestly never recommend an HP laptop, and if gaming is what you primarily do, build a desktop PC with custom picked parts so you can actually enjoy now and down the road, with flexibility to upgrade stuff such as the GPU.

I'd never, ever, ever recommend a laptop for gaming - a 1060 and that 120hz screen will be useless on battery and the 1060 is mid-range decent, at best.
 
HP is trash for laptops. Obviously a desktop is going to be better but if you need the portability I'd advise something similar spec from Dell, MSI, Asus, or one of the other gaming oriented brands.

I used to fix laptops and HP's were notoriously of the lowest quality (of the brands that still exist).
