So I am thinking of buying a gaming laptop but I am stuck on two. The MSI GP60 2OD-052US and the MSI GE60 0ND-667US. Both are ones that fit my needs but have different graphics cards. Which one is better for gaming in games like skyrim, minecraft, black ops 2, and just todays popular games. Thanks.

The GTX660M is much more powerful. the GT740M is just a relabeled GT640M with a slight clock boost, in most cases, coming out about 10% slower than the GT650M. In some cases, it's actually a clock boosted GT730M, and comes out even slower than the GT640M. In any case, the 660M is preferable, by a big margin.
