Hey guys,
I'm about to go to fry's hopefully tomorrow to purchase one of these laptops.
1. MSI GE72VR Apache Pro-027

2. MSI GS73VR Stealth Pro-025

My uses:
Hardcore filmmaking. Editing 4k video in premiere pro, compositing in after effects and nuke, 3d rendering in blender and cinema 4d (hopefully maya). I may play some games but I want a hollywood head chopper! Im a desktop guy but im currently an OTR truck driver so I need a beefy mobile monster.
I'm leaning towards the Apache because double the ram (2133 vs. 2400 on the Stealth Pro) and SSD upfront. It supposedly has an IPS screen vs. a TN screen on the Stealth Pro, which I hear is more desirable for video editing because of color fading.
The stealth pro does have a thunderbolt 3 port which might be nice for larger projects.
While I'm doing small projects with friends already, I've just started 3d modeling and it may be awhile before I attempt massive lengthed projects. Besides at that point in time I'll probably build a seriously F@*#^ up desktop so it may not matter.
What says you mates?
