[kcbeck13]

Hi,

 

       Hello Everyone I'm kinda in a dilemma in choosing a new notebook and would like to have your insights in a good notebook that could be good for creative software and gaming. I'm not really into mac as many of my colleagues are into them but I'm not because i don't like how it can be limited in terms of gaming . My budget is around $1200 to a maximum of steep $1800. I am open to options of 15" or 17" notebook . I'll list some of my options that i am currently scouting for here and hopefully you could guide me into a good decision. i'm also open for other brands.

 

What I want/need:

 

- 1080p Display (minimum)

  *3K and 4K are also Welcome

  *Good Display for creative purposes

  *Hopefully Matte Type

- Could at least carry 12GB of RAM

  *Bare minimum would be 8GB

- Relatively quiet

- Competitive GPU

- 1 SSD at least + 1TB HDD

- Good Cooling 

- 4 USB Ports would be Good

- Full Backlit Keyboard

 

** Here are the ones i am currently scouting.

   **** if any of you owns any of this can you give me a feedback on performance.

 

15" Notebook:

 

- ASUS G501

- MSI GE62 Apache Pro

- MSI GS60 Ghost Pro

 

17"

 

- ASUS G751JT

- MSI GS70

 

Thank you for your help in advance!
