I´ve decided to get a new laptop mainly for gaming. I want to buy a laptop that´s worth for me - it should last as long as it can but it´s price should be up to 1600$.
These are some PCs that I´m thinking of:
MSI GX60
- comes with AMD A10-5750M in combination with AMD Radeon HD8970M without SSD HDD and 8gigs of RAM
- price is 1200$ & Warranty lasts 2 years
- my conclusion is that the price is pretty good for a GPU like this, unfortunately the GPU gets buried with pretty weak CPU. It can handle most nowadays games, but how will it perform in two or three years (if new games will use more CPU, the GPU can`t save it, right)?
ASUS G750JX
- this handy guy comes with i7-4700 HQ Quad core CPU in combination with NVidia 770m without SSD HDD and 8gigs of RAM
- price is 1600$ & Warranty lasts 2 years
- it´s pretty combination and it´s capable to play all of nowadays games in superb quality and most probably it will be capable of playing new games in few years
MSI GT70 0NE-822
- this machine is my favourite one. It´s older model equipped with Intel Core i7 3630QM Ivy Bridge with Nvidia 680M graphics, 16GBs of RAM and 2SSD HDDS in Raid + 750GB HDD.
- price is 1500$ & Warranty lasts just one year
- I think this machine rocks and leaves the other two behind no matter it`s older model, but it`s the most powerful model of it`s series. I`ve made my decision and will buy this one in 8 hours, but I still can give it back in 14 days without any additional fees etc.
Maybe your opinions could change my mind or affirm that I did the right thing. What would be your decision?
And should I be scared because of just the 1 year warranty? How big is the risk of mobo getting blown? What are the options of upgrading this model?
And could there be a benefit if I unlocked the Bios with mods that can be found on this page?
