17.3"
MSI
GS70-2OC, i7-4700MQ + Nvidia GTX765M + (1920x1080; anti-glare)@RM4699[2.66kg][Dynaudio], 8GB, 750GB(7200rpm), W8, steel series multi color backlit KB

Slimmest and lightest 17 incher at the moment brows.gif
Nothing from Dell at the moment that can do you justice haha  tongue.gif

I don't think I can play many games when I enter Uni.. So, still worth it?
Why Apple cannot game at all?

Well, with that spec, you can even play Dota 3, 4, 5 etc. laugh.gif Its a powerful machine~
And depending on your course, some i.e. Engineering, 3D protein simulating, 3D design etc., the dedicated GPU will come in handy as well nod.gif

Apple is not that well supported for games la lol, everyone knows that  laugh.gif

If you are not really keen on getting such a powerful machine, you can opt for much cheaper ones, RM3k or so is good enough already I would say, save the money for something else  nod.gif

As long the laptop looks super good then I will buy it.

+1, just get an Apple if you really want one lol, most importantly is that you are happy with it laugh.gif

Though you can just consider the MBA 13 or MBP 13 or MBP RD 13, those are within your budget. Don't really need a 15 incher unless if you are into designing etc.  hmm.gif

I think I will go for the MBP. Will consider the size though rclxms.gif
Anyway, thanks for the help ~ thumbup.gif
