Asus ROG, MSI or Acer Predator.

I know this is very subjective but..

Which company makes the best gaming laptops?

Acer has the most value with I'd think in terms of raw hardware to price ($1500ish for the 17 inch model with IPS, 970gtx, 6700k etc), Asus is the most reliable since my 3-4 year old G75 is still going strong, MSi can't say anything about, maybe someone else who's used one can help you there.

Don't get acer they are so shitty made and their support is not good. I would take the MSI one.

Before you buy amp and dac.  My thoughts on the M50x  Ultimate Ears Reference monitor review I might have a thing for audio...

My main Headphones and IEMs:  K612 pro, HD 25 and Ultimate Ears Reference Monitor, HD 580 with HD 600 grills

DAC and AMP: RME ADI 2 DAC

Speakers: Genelec 8040, System Audio SA205

Receiver: Denon AVR-1612

Desktop: R7 1700, GTX 1080  RX 580 8GB and other stuff

Laptop: ThinkPad P50: i7 6820HQ, M2000M. ThinkPad T420s: i7 2640M, NVS 4200M

I only have experience with a ROG G750JH 2 years old - but I cant fault it. I am so impressed if I continued with gaming on laptops moving forward I would have to look at ROG seriously again.

I'd go with Asus, it's reliable, easily upgradable (theres only one screw for accessing HDD, RAM and optical drive (and it does not void your warranty).

I own both an MSI and an Asus laptop and the MSI is a pain in the ****** (I have to remove all the back of the laptop to access RAM, HDD... Plus, it voided my warranty when I opened it to add a SSD)

 

MSI's laptops are built cheaper but you get more hardware specs for the price
