I was looking at these 2 laptops and the i7-6700 is like $200-300 dollars cheaper than the i7-7700 is there any differences between the two other than a 10% or so difference in performance? Is the cooling any good?
 
Solution
Cooling wise they should be nearly the same, the 7700 might run slightly cooler due to the larger die size, but that will be minimal. the 7700 will likely also be running slightly faster which could mean a 10% difference, but good luck seeing that in daily life. make sure there is not some other reason for the big price difference such as a worse GPU.
