Aorus X7 PRO or Gigabyte P35X?

[TheHazzaaHD]

Hello everyone,

Which Laptop would you recommend out of the Aorus X7 Pro & Gigabyte P35X for College work, graphics design, and on the go gaming?

Noise of the Laptop isn't really an issue to me. Which would be the best for what I will use it for/more portable?

GIGABYTE P35X - http/www.scan.co.uk/products/156-gigabyte-p35x-ultraforce-v3-cf3intel-core-i7-4710hq-16gb-1tb-hdd-256gb-ssd-8gb-gtx-980m-dvdrw-wi?utm_source=google+shopping&utm_medium=cpc&gclid=CjwKEAiA4rujBRDD7IG_wOPytXkSJACTMkgaSdOr9ZwnOR_I_C4aIymfqQPErwjjBZYjQGWb9fcApRoCNarw_wcB

Uh does it have to be this thin? Have you considered looking at the MSI or Asus Models? The reason being while both these models are amazingly spec'd they can get hotter than the sun, they are made really thin so the heat on your lap can be unbearable sometimes. (The MSI GS60 Ghost models get crazy hot, so do the Razer Blade 13 and Pro 15). The MSI GT70s and the ASUS ROGs while they look a bit bulkier won't get nearly as hot as these. Also, the Aorus while it does look like it has better cooling will actually run hotter than the Gigabyte one due to the dual GPU option it has.

I don't really want more bulk though. I've not got enough space in my bag, nor do I want my bag to be heavier than it already is with books, etc.

The only other Asus I have seen is this, but again doesn't look very portable: http/www.asuslaptop.co.uk/Asus_G751JY-T7051H_Laptop

Personally, I think the Asus would be the best in terms of quality/cooling but if its much too big, then I'd say go with the aorus. The SLI GPU it has blows the single GTX 980M out of the water.
