Which of these two laptops would you choose? They both seem rather similar, the Dell Inspiron i7559-763BLK or the ASUS ROG GL551JW-WH71(WX). Once difference would be one is an i5 and the other is i7 (both quad cores) but both will run almost the same, and the i5 might not cause a heating issue. They both have a 960M Nvidia card, and the rest feels pretty much similar, not sure if there is more of a difference other than the Dell has an SSD and they are both practically the same in price.

So the Dell has a latest CPU, and more VRAM in the GPU. However, the Asus has a much better CPU.

I would go with the Asus, since the better CPU would be good for games.
