MSI Dominator Pro - 2293 vs Sager NP8278

I have narrowed down my choices to these 2 laptops, both from xoticpc, both have the following: 16gb(2x8gb) of ram, 4710mq, IC Diamond, Windows 8.1 w/ clean install (64 bit), Intel AC 7260 wireless, and a 250gb 840 EVO SSD.

 

MSI:
+Better Design

+Better Color Keyboard

+7200rpm 1tb SATA III

+Better Warranty (2 Year MSI Parts & Labor 1 Year Global Warranty w/ Liftime Tech Support + 1 Year Accidental Damag Warranty.

-Only 3gb of VRAM(Will more be needed?)

-~40 more

 

Sager:

+6gb of VRAM

+~40 less

-IMO Not nearly as good of a design

-Worse Keyboard IMO

-5400rpm 1tb Hybrid SATA III

-Not as good of a warranty(Lifttime Ltd Labor* 1 Year Parts warranty, lifetime 24/7 Domestic Tech Support(Through XoticPC), Free Shipping for parts repair

 

Currently leaning toward the MSI.
Is there anything that I missed? Which would you recommend? Why? 
 
Thanks!

Which GPU do they have?

MSI seems to use 970M while the Sager seems to use 870M.

 

@Nuclear Nerd If this is correct I'd definitely go for MSI. Maxwell brings a big benefit to notebook GPUs
