Alienware 17 or Asus G750jw?

[FoleyIND]

I am trying to decide between the Alienware 17 and the Asus G750jw, my budget is 1500$. I wan to be able to play games like League of Legends, Smite and Skyrim on highest possible setting. Which one should I get?

specs for the Asus: http/www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834231089&Tpk=Asus%20G750jw

specs for the Alienware: http/www.amazon.com/Alienware-ALW17-3744sLV-17-Inch-Laptop-Silver/dp/B00DL499Y0/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1379470802&sr=8-3&keywords=alienware+17

i prefer alienware but the asus has more RAM and a bigger HDD so it depends. asus has better specs but i dunno about light up keyboard. alienware you can customize it on the websight and make it 10 times better than both

Which do you feel is better for gaming? Like which one will give the best performance wise while in game?

well alienware runs hot so go with a cooling pad. and for asus its the same exact thing just more RAM and 1 TB HDD... so basicly i think go with cheaper one. alienware M17X is the #1 Gaming Laptop on many reviews. so if you want what reviews say go with
alienware. alienware is also a name brand so after your done with it you probs can sell it for almost the same amount. possibly more. i say go with asus though due to the price and due to the HDD. You can do more with the asus.

Cooling is about the same, but the Alienware runs a bit louder and has intake vents on the bottom. Opening the AW's case does not void the warranty, but I think that ASUS voids its warranty if you change anything other than a hard drive. The AW has more upgrade options: the ASUS has a soldered CPU and custom-made-to-fit GPU, and accessing the Alienware's cooling system is much easier. The AW has a sturdier chassis too: the lid is much more solid than that of the ASUS and the frame is magnesium alloy, which is typically much stiffer and stronger than ABS plastic, which ASUS uses.

I have a alienware 18 and my friend just got a Asus g750, they have the same processer and the same graphics,sure the Asus has more ram but 8 gbs is plenty, it really just depends on If you want a customizable lighting or style,they will play around they same setitngs but the alienware has a a 1GHz over the asus
