I'm trying to get the best combination out of the 3 and so far I'm more caught up between the Razer Blade and an ASUS... The only problem is that I've seen that the Razer Blade for 2000$ has only 256 GB of drive, and also seems a little overpriced. Alsothe ASUS has very similar specs to the Razer Blade and higher disk drive for less price around 1300$... As for MSI I haven't really heard much good things about it so I'm very unsure.
I've been only seeing 14 inches computers as I want mobility and at the same time performance. However if any of you know if a 15~17" computer that is lightweight and is just amazing please tell me!
Any suggestions?

The only 2 brands, when it comes to computing (and I hope you like computers :) , to follow are Intel and AMD. Brands such as asus, denovo and dell etc etc will just give you a migraine. For gaming please choose an Alienware Rig (Pre-Built by professionals at their store). My next Rig will be an Alienware Rig. The one I'm using now was Pre-Built by a swedish store called Komplett.


Intel and AMD are CPU manufacturers. Lenovo makes laptops. Asus makes motherboards that use Intel and AMD CPUs.

And you do know that Alienware is owned by Dell right? And they're not made by professionals at their shop, they're made on an assembly line in China (probably the same Foxconn line that manufactures about 90% of the electronics we use). :no:

If it doesn't have to be a laptop, I would HIGHLY recommend building your own PC from parts. I built mine for ~$900 and it's only slightly less specs than the Razer.

For a laptop, the Razer looks pretty solid. Also, the 256GB hard drive is an SSD, so that's HUGGEEE. Most people that run SSDs are only using like 32-64GB drives for OS and commonly used apps / games, and putting the rest on a 1TB+ SATA drive. Unless you're storing a [removed] ton of music and videos on your computer (if you are, stop doing that and buy a 2 TB external drive for like $100), 256GB is more than enough to put everything you'd need to have on the high speed disk.

Watch the language. - G

That Razer is a sweet laptop but yeah I agree for the price it ain't worth it. You can build your own for far less than you would buying an overpriced laptop. And laptops over $2K really depreciate in value very quickly.

Would you know any site that actually lets you customize your own laptop and has international shipping?

Any manufacturer lets you customize their laptops but international shipping can be a bit tricky. I live in the US so I can't say for international shipping but I think maybe try Sager or Lenovo.
