Hello everyone, I'm new here and wanted to get a laptop for university and for gaming. I know Desktop gaming
is the way to go, but I don't spend that much time at home, so I'm going for a laptop. I also don't mind lowering the graphics to play games (not that I usually play taxing games though).
I'm from the Philippines, for reference. I also know the laptops here cost a lot more than the US.
Initially, I had planned to get the MSI GL62 6QD/6QE, but I have not seen any of those here. Those two come with GTX 950M DDR3 and GTX 950M GDDR5 respectively.
I have around a budget of $10000 (~46000PHP) and have seen these few laptops in the area. I also know that I can import laptops from the US, but I can only buy locally as I don't have a credit card and will be paying with cash (I could ask my parents, but I don't really want to wait for shipping and all that). If you know some places in the Philippines or can get the 6QD/6QE, it would be greatly appreciated as well!
Here are the laptops I have found (I don't remember everything however):
MSI GL62 6QC ($978 / 44995PHP):
Processor: i5-6300HQ
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GT940MX 2GB DDR3
RAM: 4GB DDR4 @ 2133Mhz
HDD: 1TB SATA 7200RPM
HP Pavilion 14(?) ($913 / 41995PHP):
Processor: i7-6500U
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GT940MX 4GB GDDR5
RAM: 4GB DDR4 @ 2133Mhz
HDD: 1TB
ASUS X555DQ ($805 / 36995PHP):
Processor: FX-8800P (15W I think)
Graphics Card: R6 M340DX
RAM: 4GB DDR3 @ 1600Mhz
HDD: 1TB
I was surprised by the HP Pavilion's price, but I don't know if its cooling is any good. The MSI however I believe has the much better cooling system. The ASUS one is there just in case I'm in a pinch and I have to buy it.
So how are these laptops? Which one would be the best to buy?
