I know this is another debate on which gaming laptop to buy but it does help getting some help to make an educated decision. I originally wanted to buy a Asus GL502VM as I will mostly be using and external 27" screen for gaming but after research let me to believe this machine has heating issues I started looking at other units. We are also not spoiled for choice here as MSI and Asus are mostly our options. So I dug further and found these options but cannot decide which one would be best for gaming keeping heat dissipation in mind as I stay in Africa. Details as follows:

1. MSI GP72VR/17.3/1060/I7-7700HQ/8GB/1TB/W10
