hi all .....im contemplating one of these 4 lap tops which one would you have and why ? ....im attracted to the msi gt72 because of the promising upgradeable gpu ...i do have a high end desktop but im finding with my nights spent away from home a lot i rarely get chance to go on the desktop which makes the laptop so more appealing .......any way here they are which do you think i should go for .......

I think the Asus is the best all rounder looking at one my self aorus v3 pro is a powerhouse but the fans and stupidly loud and get very very hot

I was looking for the last few weeks, in the end I went for the Asus ROG (£1999 one), so far I'm pretty impressed but it's still downloading games so I've only tested arma elite dangerous and insurgency so far. They all play amazingly well.

Asorus looked like my choice till I read that it's cooling sucks and is so bad that the cpu is throttled under heavy load. All that graphics grunt ain't much use if the cpu isn't running full speed.

I got the 32gb asus fit work (so no games)
But requested it due to what has been said. Good cooling!
No point having all the power of you can't cool it. Otherwise you will be throttled anyway

That said.. It only had 1yr warranty!

I went for the Asus myself, first true gaming laptop and I think it hits the mark pretty well. Very nice and cool, 17" screen (ips too) and has all the right specs. From a performance, value and appearence perspective its probably the best in my eyes. Only complaint I have is the speakers aren't that great and it seems to mark easy cos of the finish which can be a little frustrating but can be cleaned of course. Amazing overall and if true sound was right it would be perfect.
