I would like a high-end gaming laptop for the price of around $1300, and I have narrowed my search down to the two laptops below.
I need help deciding!
MSI GE70 Apache Pro-012 ($1299)

GIGABYTE P27Gv2-CF1 ($1299)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834233049
What do you think is the best laptop and why?
I've heard the MSI Apache Pro series has 1.5 hour shorter battery life while idle, and gets a fair bit hotter and has worse workmanship.
The Gigabyte is slightly thicker whilst surpassing the Apache in the above categories.
However, battery-life and heat doesn't exactly matter in my opinion; what I care about is over-all performance and reliability.
