 am looking at 2 options

If you have a better option, price wise up or down a little i am all ears.  They look pretty damn solid either way. 
I want a solid laptopop, i can game on and don;t have to see it choppy all the time.  i am goign to be living in a different city monday through friday, and home sat night and sunday.  So i feel like this is my best option.

Puddin' spamtm
i cant really blame smokaz i mean playing against puddin is like trying to fight off breast cancer. You might win and do it and be a bad ass but you'll feel sick and mutilated forever.

Puddin' spamtm is soulcrushing... what's hard to understand about that?

seems rather solid puddin, both are incredibly similar to my alienware M17x and that thing tanks for gaming
on the + side those are cheaper then mine was ($2000)
Cooling is always an issue with laptops tho,

The ASUS models have really good cooling actually. Also, ASUS provides a 1 year accidental coverage with their warranty, meaning damage from just about anything is covered.

I am wondering if this MSI is worth the little bit in price increase....


A 675m and 12 gigs of ram...

In my opinion, the difference between having a good graphic card and an excellent one is all about half-life.

Sure, a good card can run all the games out now at high/max settings, but will that be true for games coming out in two or three years? This is especially important for laptops since most of them have integrated cards, meaning if your graphic card is out of date, your entire machine is obsolete for gaming, regardless of its' hard-drive, RAM or cpu speed.

If you have the cash, I'd advocate getting that little extra edge with the MSI, especially if you are planning on playing new games on the rig and planning on keeping the laptop around for a long while.
