    Currently Dell is selling G7 with i7, 16GB Ram, 1060MaxQ, 128SSD+1 TB (5400RPM) and 4K display for $1,399.99.

    Alienware 15 with i7, 16GB Ram, 1060 OC, 128 M.2SSD+1 TB (7200 RPM), 1080p IPS, and larger battery for $1,449.99.

    Is the Alienware a better buy for only $50 more, or does the 4K on the G7 make up for slower storage, graphics, and smaller battery?
