I'm currently searching for a laptop for college, and, with due consideration, I have a rather large budget. MSI particularly interests me considering their laptops are rather solid, but I'm conflicted between what model would be the most bang for my buck.
The main caveat between all the laptops is that they offer a different price point and different hardware. Although, the main problem is whether paying money for a stronger NVIDIA GPU (GTX 780M vs 870M as in other laptops), for a stronger screen (3K vs 1920x1080), or for a stronger processor (i7 4800MQ vs 4700MQ), would be worth it in the long run.
I already am set on the laptop screen size (15.6") and the brand of processor/GPU (Intel/NVIDIA) present in the laptop, but, if there are other laptops I should consider purchasing, I'd like to know what they are. I should also be able to put about $1.25k or more towards a laptop purchase.
