Think it makes more sense to go with the Gigabyte since it has a 10th gen i7 and more RAM that is also faster.

 

I prefer MSI brand but I'm not so sure about Gigabyte. Check their reviews, warranty length, features etc.

Right. The MSI has a 16 GB option for a little less than the Aorus. But I’ll definitely check it out
