From my experience you would be better off getting a regular computer with great specs.

For instance, I got a run-of-the-mill high-end HP laptop, its specs were

i7 2630QM
8GB DDR3
HD 6850
17" 3D 1080p Screen
3D Blu-Ray / DVD / CD writer
Wireless video / Wirelss Hotspot technology

All this for just about $1000 a year ago.

'Gaming' laptops are marked up quite a bit.

You can use this to cross reference

I have not heard any problem with cooling for the GT70, but it does not mean that there will be no problems.

Not sure for the Asus, you can use notebook check to come to conclusions

My friend has the M17x it has worked perfectly since day one going on almost a year now.
It has the I7 and the 7970, no heat issues unlike the Nvidia equivalent and gets more use then his X6/7970 desktop.

The thing is if you have a problem with Alienware/Dell they will make it right.
If you have a problem with MSI or ASUS your going to have a nightmare with customer service, if you have to RMA it you will likely get a laptop with more problems then the one you sent in.

Oh did i mention the M17x has an HDMI input that is by far its best feature.
