Help with picking a New Gaming Notebook

[Cronic]

My msi notebook has finally passed away (rip)(also a side project to fix it). I was looking at getting a new notebook, but the decision is....difficult. I have narrowed down to a few unless other suggestions are given.
The three are as follows

Found several other Msi variations....but I just cant decide

 

[P4-630]

I would go with an Asus ROG laptop, they usually have better cooling and I own one myself.

I agree P4-630, Asus ROG laptops like the one Cronic links has one of the best laptop coolings for gaming laptop u can find, ik the look might not be for everyone but if u want a laptop that has proper cooling it's the way to go

My only reason for shying away from that my first rog died after 13 months...the dc jack on the back overheated and fried. The Msi brand however has improved there cooling design, tests show that there basically even

Putting cooling aside, The other specs are what im unsure of. The killer Networking vs intels, 8g vs 4g 980, I dont know how much of a real difference these will make on the overall system

Also an update, the one Msi thats 32g is out, I think http://www.ebay.com/itm/MSI-GT72-Do...ming-Laptop-/261979685205?hash=item3cff34c155 would be the better option because the 5th gen core rather than 4, but it has 4vr instead of 8

ASUS is also my pick.

MSI with 4th Gen Processor.
The 5th Gen all seem to be 2 cores with hyperthreading.

I would go with an Asus ROG laptop, they usually have better cooling...

They appear to be nearly identical from the rear, and the MSI has an open vented base.

I would opt for an MSI Laptop. They handle games a lot better. If cooling is an issue you can always get a cooling fan. Although their laptops are also able to keep themselves regulated quite well. How much exactly are you willing to spend? The GT series is very well designed for the hard core gamer albeit it is more expensive. If you want something that gets the job done and for a more budget friendly price, I recommend the GE series. On amazon at the moment I found a sale for the GE70 Apache which is a very well received laptop.

Its been a flip flop between the two lol. I did alot of research on it last night and yeah i seen many of the 5th gen are only 2/4 w/ hyperthreading. As for the GE series, im aiming for a gt 980 so it will be good for a few years.

Have you looked at Sager/clevo machines... I bought mine from Schenker which is also based in Germany, I'd recommend them since their warranty is second to none

Edit: configured the p705 to the same spec and was like $18 more than the first link you put... plus you can choose exactly what you want inside it, even the brand of the SSD or HDD
