So. Soon i will be getting some moneys. What i wanna spent these moneys on, is a laptop, a laptop used for gaming ofc.

My budget is 2200$, but remember we have taxes in our country (Denmark), VAT: 25%, so this MAYBE means that it's about 1650$ for you guys, not sure.

I have found two laptops already, so you can see what i am looking for + which one of them should i buy, if it was one of those two i wanted to buy?

MSI GT72 2QE 647NE Dominator Pro - 2083$ (With 25% taxes)

ASUS ROG G751JY T7103H - 2155$ (With 25% taxes)

Both of them looks good.

I also looked at the Alienware but realized it's not worth the moneys, or what do you say? Is it?
Alienware 17 R2 (added 128 gb SSD so it's like the Asus and the MSI) - 2245$ (With 25% taxes)

So it could be really nice if someone knew anything about what is best. Like, not just the specs, but actualy also; how long will they last? Etc.? Anything would help
Thank you!
Best regards

 
Out of the 2 I personally go with the asus as I have only used an asus laptop before (n series). The msi is good for the money and will last just as long as the asus. It really depends on your brand preference.
