i am looking to buy this laptop  
can someone suggest me better laptop than this at same price point 
in this model there is no ssd but msi GE72 does have it but it costs 300CAD more which i think is too much for 128gig ssd
may be if i bought GE72 i will upgrade it with ssd soon

GT72 Dominator G or GT72 Dominator G Pro (if you have enough money for the GTX 980M difference).  Currently I have the GT72 Dominator G with the 970M and it handles everything pretty smoothly.

a 970M is not a must for gaming - 860M/960M are enough

I have 4GB on my 860M - never really went past 2GB with the games I've played (though I haven't played VRAM hogs like Skyrim with mods or Shadow of Mordor

The SSD is nice though there is no secondary storage space so you need an external drive for mass storage if the SSD is not large enough for you
