Hey everyone,

 

I'm looking to buy my next laptop and I'm trying to figure out what should I get. I'm looking for a gaming laptop but with slick finish that is not screaming gaming at all since I'll be also using it at work and for studies. I've looked into Razer blade 15, MSI gs65, and Asus zephyrus M.

 

My budget is around $1,500 can push it to $1,800 but I prefer not.

 

In addition, do you think it really matters if I get an 2018 model ? And does it make a big difference to get the i7 CPU 8th or 9th gen ?

 

Last but not least, are you aware of any gaming laptop with a touch screen ?

 

Looking forward to some cool ideas tech people :)

Your budget is kinda low but if you can raise it a bit, this MSI GS65 is on discount right now and has awesome specs:

Custom Built MSI GS65 8SF Stealth-004 - 15.6" FHD 144Hz - i7-8750H - RTX 2070 Max-Q

 

Here's another good option, it's a Tongfang laptop:

EVOC High Performance Systems 16GK5 -15.6" FHD 144Hz- i7-9750H - RTX 2070 Max-Q

 

If you email donald@hidevolution.com you may be able to get a small discount he was the salesman I dealt with when buying my laptops from HIDevolution. Their quality control and customer service is superb.
