First off, are you SURE you want a laptop.
Consider that you can buy a decent PC at a cheaper price and a cheap laptop for mobility.

That laptop battery will not last when you need portability and it will NOT be a pleasure to carry around.
Something to consider.

Anyway, here is something BETTER and cheaper.
The ROG branding screws that laptops price HARD.

Yeah I've decided to go with a laptop for now, I'm moving to Georgia for 4 months for a trade school then idk where I'll be placed for a job after that so until I get a stationary job I need a laptop. That Lenovo looks good tho, better than an alienware?

The lenovo has 2 x GTX750m graphics cards. This is about 15% faster than the GTX765m.

So its better in the graphics department.

However the lenovo does not have a DV drive. So keep that in mind if you still have a use for such a thing.
The lenovo has 16GB of RAM too and a Hybrid SSD/HDD drive. Which is considerably more responsive.
On top of that its also smaller and lighter than the Asus. 15.6" instead of 17.2".

There really is no reason to consider the Asus ROG or the ALienware above the Lenovo.

All of that branding is costing you money at no extra performance.
