new blade 14 or blade stealth w 1060 core

HELP

I am a student  so i'm looking for a slim capable laptop that can game. 

I have not decided but I will most likely go for razer. 
Should I get the new blade 14 with the 1060 or the blade stealth with the core and a 1060 graphics card inside. The blade stealth option is cheaper and has the same specs.

Can anybody tell me the pros and cons  as well as your opinions
thanks

I'd go the gaming desktop and a basic laptop for taking notes or whatever as well.

I started with a Asus G751 17in laptop for school and gave it up for my wifes surface pro after about a month. I used the money for the laptop and built a gaming desktop in its place and I am so happy I did so. Its so much easyer to do school work on a 34in screen and a good keyboard and mouse. Though the core solves these Issues Its just to expensive to make it worth it.

Both overheat like crazy, core or any eGPU solutions are just not worth it, rather build something yourself or you could look into a bulkier laptop, because that would actually cool the laptop.

Pros

-Looks really nice

-Feels really nice (cept when you go the the hospital for burn injuries)

 

Cons-

-Shit customer support

-Shit RMA process

-Shit thermal design (actually complete lack of thermal design is more appropriate)

-Shit keyboard

-Shit quality control 

-Hot as fuck (literally 95C running Overwatch a 60% utilization game)

-Loud as fuck (60db is bout the loudness of a blow dryer)

-Thermal throttles to hell and back (so shit performance)
