Hey everyone! I need a new pc and i thought it would be a good idea for me to buy it while summer sales are up. I'm from europe and i don't really want to rely on shipping sale companies. I have found 2 computers the GL502VM and the GL502VS. On the website, both of them have almost the same price. I have purchased 1 week ago a computer the Asus ROG Scar-GL503VS-EI043T 15.6. Here are the specs: https://www.fnac.com/PC-Portable-Asus-ROG-Scar-GL503VS-EI043T-15-6-Gaming/a11264915/w-4
In the end, i thought that the price was high while i found deal breaking issues here and there. One which is worth mentionning is that on this model, the fan noises are insane. Even when you're doing something casual like web browsing etc. The Asus rog gaming center also is quite annoying because you can only swap between overboost and auto mode for the fans. I tried to tweak the fan speeds but still i could hear them. I know pc gaming often make noises but not to that extend. My previous computer was a GL502VY and i really loved it. While the heat as well as noises goes up a bit under load, it remains quiet when i watch a film etc. Basically the current one I have does have an effective cooling system as it remains cool in pretty much every situation but the permanent noise is really a downside/deal breaker. Long story short, i rather have a pc that is a bit warmer at times but remains quiet most of the time than a pc has an overkill cooling system.
Here is the GL502VS (titanium edition) : https://www.cdiscount.com/informatique/ordinateurs-pc-portables/ordinateur-portable-asus-g502vs-fy298t-15-6-i/f-10709-g502vsfy298t.html?refer=zanoxpb&cid=affil&cm_mmc=zanoxpb-_-269859&awc=6948_1532103130_d099e235668b5bc2e5ec2ecbd3584414
And here is the GL502VM : https://www.cdiscount.com/informatique/ordinateurs-pc-portables/asus-rog-g502vm-fy231t-core-i7-7700hq-2-8-ghz/f-1070992-asu4712900695380.html?idOffre=203510008
There are lots of things i could discuss now on why I would buy one instead of the other (though i'm currently getting towards the VM even if it doesn't seem that worth considering the price) but i don't want to prevent you guys from posting any idea you came up with, so i'll give more of my thoughts once i get some replies :D.
PS: With intensive research i have more infos on the computers listed here so if you want in depth specs of both product i might be able to give them to you :>.
Thanks in advance!
