Hello there lads!
I would to seek for your opinion on which laptop to choose from my options. Let me present you my options:
1st laptop: http://markosoft.si/markoshop/prenosniki/17-3-zaslon/prenosnik-asus-g752vt-apache-detail
- intel core i7 6700HQ, Nvidia GTX 970 3GB, 16GB DDR4, 1TB HDD + 256GB SSD for around 1700€
2nd laptop: http://markosoft.si/markoshop/prenosniki/17-3-zaslon/prenosnik-asus-g751jy-t7279t-detail
- intel core i7 4720HQ, Nvidia GTX 980 4GB, 16GB DDR3, 1TB HDD + 128 SSD four around 1700€ aswell.
I am planning on buying a laptop for my college years where I'll be doing graphical design and video productions. Of course I'd like to have a gaming efficient laptop aswell that could run a solid 60 FPS in any game.
Thanks for your asnwers in advance.

Damn this is a very hard choice, but in the end if you have a bit more patience during your graphical design and video productions I'd go for the GTX980 since that laptop will perform better in gaming but a little bit slower during your graphical work (based on cpu and gpu specs)

Τhe difference between 4720hq and 6700hq is not that great,also 970m=960 desktop,980m=970 desktop.At this price point none of these laptops worth it,in a few months laptop with desktop grade gtx 1060 will come to market much better than any previous m model.
