    I need help with my build

    Overall, your build is good. The gpu you have selected is good enough for gaming. The only thing is that its 4 Gb memory is in actual not 4, but 3.5 + 0.5 . read more about this here ...

    Looking For Mid-Range Gaming-Capable Laptop (under or at $1500)

    Well if I were you, I'll definitely go with the Asus coz spending a little more than the budget will not harm if its for the good. Moreover, you yourself said that you will use heads most of the time so dont let audio bother you on this.

    Monitor screen is black from startup. I need a reboot.

    It's unclear what you want apart from a reboot, so just disconnect the wall adapter and the battery form the laptop and reconnect. It will reboot !!

    Is there any better laptop at this price?

    the laptop you choose is best in its price range as your even get a get a SSD, although it's 8 gb only. I cannot find any other model which is best than this, But DONT buy from snapdeal. Buy with flipkart or some local shop, as reviews for snapdeal are not good.

NO problem what-so-ever was reported by any tool, nor...
