I want to buy a powerful gaming laptop and i have come down to 2 options. I live in india . Other options are welcome but my budget can not exceed 2200.The laptops i have chosen are-

Alienware 17
http://www.dell.com/in/p/alienware-17/fs (the one on the left)

Asus ROG g750jm
http://www.flipkart.com/asus-g750jm-t4018p-g-laptop/p/i...

I am getting both of them for exactly thee same prize which is 2200 us dollars.
The only difference between the 2 is that with the asus i am getting 24gb of ram where as i am getting only 8gb of ram with the alienware. I will have to upgrade the ram of my alienware to atleast 16gb of ram .
I would have gone with the asus but alienware looks way cooler and it has better upgrade options and i am also getting 80gb msata drive with the alienware .

I want to know which one is sturdier as i travel a lot and which one would last me atleast 4 to 5 years without major upgrade(i would only be upgrading the ram if required).
Please help me decide which one is better.

I would say the alienware 17 wins this one. It has a slightly better processor, more ram for you gpu if you need it and an extra msata drive if you need it.

alienware has more ram ??? the asus has 24gb while the alienware has 8gb
and i would not be upgrading the gpu for atleast 4 years
i can upgrade to a ssd later but not for atleast 1 year

Sorry about the ram, I must have misread it, but thanks for pointing that out.

I thinks so, but it is best to check for benchmarks on sites just to be sure before you buy the game.

I prefer ASus as far as the quality and like the additional DRAM, but if strictly for gaming the 880 is better than the 860 if you really want to push the graphics in the games

I've had better luck with Asus for quality and longevity, have clients that use and have used both and get more positives about Asus
