What gaming laptop would you pick ASUS ROG G751JM or MSI GE70

They're both the same price, but it seems the MSI has a better processor and GPU. I need a third party to weigh in so I can decide--im too indecisive.

With great restraint and discipline, I won't wander off track and tell you how poor the value is you are getting with these "gaming" latops. I won't do it.

If I had to pick either, with a gun to my had and my family dangled over a cliff...essentially forced to pick one or the other...it would be the MSI.

It's a much better GPU and a better CPU at the same price.

The MSI will run much warmer than the ASUS. But the ASUS requires relatively major disassembly to get to the fans to clean them. The keyboard and speakers will be better on the MSI. And as you already know, the MSI has the better GPU/CPU.

If you can deal with the heat, I say go for the MSI.

P.S. Also, as of today, the website says the ASUS isn't available.
