    Can I have your thoughts on these. I'm thinking of moving from a 13" 2015 MacBook Pro.

    Will they play games in 1080p in ultra. Mainly racing and FPS.

    Asus 15.6" ROG Core i5 3GB GTX 1060 Gaming Laptop with USB 3.1 Type C FX502VM-DM125T

    Asus 15.6" ROG Core i7 3GB GTX 1060 Gaming Laptop with USB 3.1 Type-C FX502-DM119T

    I really like the cost & specs of the Asus at £1249 & £1399 but at Scan their own machines seem to have better value for money although they look cheaper and are heavier.

    Only want 15" screen but it needs top graphics & look good. Is the extra RAM & i7 worth an extra £150?

    Thanks
