So, I am looking for a laptop over this weekend (old one broke down) and I think I have narrowed it down too two laptops. I am going to be using this in the classroom as well as in my dorm for gaming (BF4, COD:Ghosts, State of Decay, GTA 4/5, and Saints Row 4). The first is a Clevo p150sm configured as follows from http/:
Clevo P150sm Barebone
- Screen: 15.6" FHD 16:9 "Matte Type" Super Clear Ultra Bright LED Anti-Glare Sager Screen w/ 95% NTSC Color Gamut (1920x1080)
- CPU: i7 4700mq 2.4ghz~3.4ghz
- GPU: HD 8970m
- RAM: 16gb 1600Mhz
- mSSD: 120GB Crucial M5 mSATA SSD
- HDD: 750GB 7200RPM 16MB Cache HDD
- Cooling Paste: IC Diamond Thermal Compound - CPU + GPU
Price: $1657.00
The second is the FORCE / MSI 16F4 configured as: http/
- Screen: 15.6” FHD 16:9 LED Backlit Wide screen (1920x1080) Anti-Glare Matte Type
- CPU: i7 4700mq 2.4ghz~3.4ghz
- GPU: GTX 780m
- RAM: 8GB 1600Mhz (Will Upgrade in future to 16gb)
- SSD: 120GB Samsung 840 Evo Solid State Drive (Read 540MB/s - Write 410MB/s (SSD2 - SATA III)
- HDD: 750GB 7200RPM 16MB Cache HDD
- Cooling Paste: IC Diamond Thermal Compound - CPU + GPU
Price: $1747.00
I know that the MSI/Force laptop is more powerful, but can anyone that has used one of these models tell me the pros and cons for each. Which one will suet me better for in-class? I realize both are beefy, but I will be ok with this as I do not use this all the time during class. Please help!
