Thank you! I actually fixed it already. But thanks for replying  

I would trade the 970 for a 1060 if you can.

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE ENTERING, AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT ON THIS CRAZY JOURNEY
 
 
EDIT:
 
Alright, we have selected our winners!!!
 
@Plavi and @willp3, you have 72 hours to respond to the DMs I am sending you right now. If we do not receive a reply in that time, new winners will be chosen! Since both said that the Blade would be their choice, it's on a "first replied first served" basis. (for clarity - what this means is that the first winner to reply will get their choice between the two laptops, and the second winner to reply will get the laptop that the first winner did not choose. This does not mean that we're only giving away one laptop...)
 
Thanks everyone.
 
 
EDIT2:
 
Alright, so @Plavi has officially claimed the New Blade! Congrats on winning

But, unfortunately for @willp3, he did not respond in time to claim his prize...

Our new Blade Stealth winner is @ted542! Check your inbox, you have 72 hours to reply
 
 
EDIT3:
 
Both laptops have now been claimed. Thanks for participating in this awesome giveaway, and please be sure to keep an eye out for giveaways in the future!
 
 
Please don't report posts in this topic - all duplicates will be handled before drawing, so if you have double posted, don't worry about it.

Although not needed, I would say 4k because if it is the same laptop  you can set it to 1080p when you want if you want to save battery. Plus it will be more future proof.

Thats what I was thinking, Why not future proof it? 4K will be the next standard in the future anyways. 4K for content creation, then 1080P for hardcore games or 4K if its not that demanding of a game.

Sure! ill keep you updated. Also I'm buying a new laptop this coming May, and so far the Alienware 15 with 4K IPS Matte display, GTX 970M 3GB, 1TB HDD, 8GB RAM, and an intel core I7-6700HQ is looking like a great machine and its pretty future proof with its USB type-C and graphics amp port.

Y50 inside

@don_svetlio That's amazing you actually got a Y50 heatsink and for me personally I go crazy when I see laptop internals because I just love knowing how these things look on the inside. Thank you so much for all your replies   really appreciate it!

Y50 heatsink compared to a similar AW one

Just as an example, my Y50's GPU temps at full load with CPU at 40% load are around 68-70*C with the CPU at around 75-80*C

EDIT: The industrial-design Sunon dual-fan pulls its weight

AW laptops aren't as good at keeping cool as the bulkiness would have you believe. The Aluminium heatsinks transfer heat 35% slower than Copper ones so a copper heatsink 2/3 of the size of the one in the AW machine will yield the same results. The Y-series have quite large full-copper HS and thus the best temps out of the bunch. Dell 7559 compensates by having larger surface area and more heatpipes. MSI also use lots of heatpipes and copper.
The Y400 keyboard is different. The Y700 is 2 generations newer and is improved (however slightly).
You know my recommendation

http://portablepicker.com/ is a great source to use for this. It's run by PCPartPicker and I used it to buy my laptop. It's got some really good search criteria tools you can use to limit your results to laptops you would actually want.

This is a worldwide giveaway.
 
Also, please mention in your comment what you would do with the processor if you were to win this giveaway! (This will not affect who wins in any way - winners are chosen at random, this is just a way to add a bit of cool community interaction to the contest) Are you a budding streamer or video editor who will use the extra cores for multi-tasking? Would this chip act as the missing piece for a set of workstation components that you've been eyeing?
