Hi everyone I'm new to the forum but a long time fan of the YouTube channel. I'm thinking of upgrading my laptop and I have some ideas and I was hoping you guys could help me out. So far this are my choices Msi gl63 9sek-473, msi gs65 stealth-483, asus gx502gv-pb74 asus gx701gv-pb74. What do you guys recommend? 

Thanks so much in advance ?

Why are you limited to these machines?

I'm still in school so one of my main focus is portability and this were the best ones I could find given the weight. Also I need I good cpu for university projects and a nice cpu for some gaming

Keep in mind battery life and thermals. Thin gaming laptops usually run super hot, super loud and have horrid battery life.

i briefly considered the aero 15 but the constrution didnt inspired me that much

I would at least consider it above average. The old Aero laptops a few years back were mediocre but I think the new ones are honestly not that bad.

In terms of battery life over 3 hours would be nice with mainly cpu usage. And weight as light as possible. Don't won't it to be heavier then 2.4 kg but if you think it's worth going over that limit sure go for it. At least a rtx 2060 and the best cpu possible. Oh ya and a good construction. One of the main reasons I'm won't to change upgrade it because the case of my laptop is starting to lift up on the sides when I open the lid

Don't really have any because I'll must likely will purchase it through a local store here in Portugal that I know the owner he has access to some sites that are business oriented but I don't the names. Never the less do the search on sites you usually do I'll then check for availability ?

You mean 3 hrs in light loads?

I need sites in your country (I only know barebone reseller websites), otherwise I wouldn't know the availability
