MSI GS60 Ghost-242 VS Asus GL552VW-DH74

[ChaoticShadow]

MSI GS60 Ghost-242 or Asus GL552VW-DH74? The MSI is more expensive but is it worth the cost? The thinness and weight is nice, but I won't ever use the Killer Doubleshot Pro. So, is it worth the extra $400?

I will be doing projects, game development, programming, etc.

Thanks! (Also, which one has a longer battery life)

It depends on how much gpu power you need for the course. I personally would stay with the asus as I know them better than msi. I also know that the ghost range of the msi are loud and hot due to its thinness.

Thanks! I think I'm going for the GL552 or maybe the new GL502!
