Mainly want to be used for video and photo editing, including medium to heavy gaming. I'm leaning towards the Inspiron because it's cheaper and i can add a SSD and more memory. Tell me what's the best out of this list or if you have any good recomendations.

• Dell Inspiron i7559-763BLK

dell is unreliable in my experience. Friends of mine took apart a dell laptop and found the trackpad  taped in place.

ASUS and MSI are about equal

The Dell will give you the most bang for your buck, and is at a completly different price point. The First MSI listed one is the best of the other three, since the second on is like 400$ more expensive.

Everything I have heard about XoticPC has been negative, so I would not recommend them. I would recommend the ASUS personally, though the Dell is by no means a bad choice either.

My legit rig:

CPU: i5 6600k GPU: Asus Strix 1070 RAM: 16 GB of Corsair LPX CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken X61 Motherboard:  Asus Z170I Pro Gaming Storage: Adata Sp550 120 GB and WD Black 3 TB Case: NZXT Manta Power Supply: EVGA 550 GS Monitors: 2 LG 25UM58-P Ultrawides Keyboard: Cooler Master Quickfire Rapid-i Mouse: Logitech G502 RGB

This has more bang for the buck with a 970M.

Dell=/=Automatically bad. Linus actually did a review on the 7559 and said it was quite good for the price.
