Hi All,

I already did a lot of research really. I knew I want MSI GE72VR 7RF-283MY.
I actually waited for it, but the price turn me down. So I actually looking for alternative.

1. Preferred brand : MSI / ASUS / DELL / Clevo (Illegear / Commandos ?)
2. Budget : maximum 6.5k (DOS is fine)
3. Usage : Gaming (Can accept AAA titles in 1080p medium setting, GTX1060 is because I want to be VR-proof)
4. Screen Size : 17"

Minimum requirements:
1. Full RGB KB
2. 120GB SATA3 SSD
3. GTX1060 6GB
4. 8GB RAM
5. 1TB HDD
6. USB Type-C 3.1 (is this equals thunderbolt? I need thunderbolt 3)
7. IPS, G-Sync (Optional)

Is this possible? Else need to jump to GTX1050ti (Yeah GL753). And buy new set for VR in the future. Haiz.

Thanks all in advance.

Hi all,

I would like to buy a gaming laptop. I did a quick online research on ASUS ROG series, MSI gaming laptop and HP Omen. However, there are too many models available in the market and I don't know which model is the best deal that I should go for.

1. Preferred brand : Asus/MSI/HP/Dell/Lenovo
2. Budget : Below 5k
3. Usage : Gaming
4. Screen Size : Any
5. OS: Windows 10
5. CPU: i7-6700HQ and above
6. Graphic: GTX960M/965M or GTX1050/1060
7. RAM: 8GB DDR4 and above
8. Storage: 1TB HDD + 128GB SSD

Any good recommendation for the above specification?

Is there a huge difference between GTX9xx series and GTX10xx series in terms of graphic quality? Is it worth paying more to get GTX10xx series?

Besides, did you guys purchase laptop from online sites such as lazada and techhypermart? Are they reliable?

Appreciate your advice and thanks in advance.
