Which gaming laptop is better?

I've been trying to find gaming laptops around the price of 1000-1400 (Canadian dollars) and I've been stuck on two: Asus or MSI:

Asus ROG GL503VD-DB71

MSI Apache GE62 7RD-471
https/www.staples.ca/en/MSI-Apache-GE62-7RD-471CA-15-6-Gaming-Laptop-2-8-GHz-Core-i7-7700HQ-1-TB-HDD-256-GB-SSD-16-GB-RAM-GeForce-GTX-1050-Win10/product_2681663_1-CA_1_20001

Would love if people would give their opinion about this. Thanks!

I'd go with the MSI as it has an SSD and also a Headset Amp port. Also, MSI has 6-cell battery as opposed to Asus's 4-cell. All in all, for me MSI seems better value.
