Gaming laptop help

[peachprosecutor]

Hi I am getting a new laptop in June and am torn between the new aorus x7 and alienware 17.

The aorus has i7 4700hq, gtx 765m sli, 2x 128gb ssd in raid 0 + 1 tb hdd, and 16gb ram.

The 17 in mind sports a gtx 780m i7 4700mq, 16gb ram, 500gb hdd(huge downgrade for the aorus), and a really awesome look.

Both systems come in at around $2100.00.

Thanks for the help!

Alienware 17 then save up and upgrade to the WD Black Squared

dont go with alinewear their like the little brother of apple you pay a butt load for looks and very little performance and does it have to be a laptop? we could make you a better pc for the same price if you give us a budget

Unless you have a really good reason, don't get such a bulky laptop, if you already have a desktop get a razer blade or other thin gaming laptop, if you don't spend $1000 on the laptop and $1000 on a desktop.

For $2100, I think you should get a good desktop and something like an Ultrabook for portability. If you already have a desktop, just save your money and get a laptop in the $1000 range.

If you don't have a desktop we can configure one that is a lot better and is relatively small.

Unless you absolutely need a laptop for portability, you can build a nice desktop for that price.

Do not buy the Alienware.

 

My brother spent 3700$ on a MX17R3 and this pos did nothing but NOT work. [Over heating, BSODing, ...] and so on and so forth. Alienware will give you AIDS. In your head.
