I'm going to get a new gaming laptop soon and I'm not sure which is the best one to buy, as there are so many options. Here's what I'm looking for: i7 4600HQ and above, GTX 970M or higher, 1 TB HDD 7200 rpm + at least 128GB SSD, at least 16GB RAM, and preferably in some sort of bundle. Here's what I found so far: http://www.amazon.com/MSI-GE72-Apache-Pro-001-i7-6700HQ/dp/B0150PK3FQ/ref=pd_sim_sbs_147_16?ie=UTF8&dpID=41-UCKN8BUL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=0X9HBXNZWKSF1R5DC99V

My budget is around $1600, so if there anything better? What is my best option? I play League of Legends and Overwatch currently, but I plan to play more demanding games and I would like this machine to last me more than a year or two. Thanks for the help!

id say wait until the new year, with the new cpus coming out from amd and intel the current good stuff will probably be cheaper due to new competition from AMD and new CPU lines... or if you are really looking to be at least wait until black Friday or when the Christmas shopping starts everything is just that much cheaper then

but also i personally think its stupid to have a gaming laptop.. if you want gaming, desktop is the best. you can build a custom computer that will be slightly better and a few hundred cheaper... its even cheaper if you have some spare parts, say you have an enclosure and a power supply well you just took at least 150 off the price already. when i build my new rig this coming spring all ill need is a cpu, motherboard and ram and it will be a dope computer... i'm thinking about 800 at most and this comp will be a sick gaming computer. plus upgrading afterwards is pretty easy, AND you get to learn how to build a computer (its pretty damn simple and very handy) the more broke you are the more handy it is tho. when i was in high school i slapped 2 crappy computers together to make one decent computer (at least for what i needed at the time).



laptops you cant really do that kind of crap, and it can break easily you'd be surprised how many laptops i've scene have hings break and mess the screen up or have something happen to it and it always overheats
