GPU:GTX 860M 2GB Dedicated GDDR5 VRAM
RAM:16GB DDR3L
HDD:1TB SATA HDD
SSD:256GB SSD as Boot drive

or

2. MSI GT70 2PC-1832AU DOMINATOR 17.3"
CPU: HSW Core i7 4710MQ
GPU: GTX 870M GDDR5 3GB
RAM: DDR3 8G

Solution
4700hq: 2.4 to 3.4 Ghz
4710mq: 2.5 to 3.5 Ghz
So, 4710mq

GTX 870M is better than gtx860m.

SSD helps to improve the loading time of OS, games, softwares if they are installed on it. Otherwise not needed as hard and fast. Since slot available u can always upgrade. Samsung 840 evo 256gb comes around 130$.

RAM for multitasking, game performance improvement. So, I would go with the MSI upgrading it to 16gig RAM. If budget allows add an ssd to it otherwise keep it for later.
