So after weeks of searching, I've pinned down three laptops that almost meet my desires.
However, I need help deciding which one to go for.
I want it to last 3-5 years and still be able to play new games smoothly on decent graphic settings during that period, but also light. I don't play VERY much, but when I do i want it to be smooth, not necessariliy on Very high or ultra, but decent, and I want it to be like that for newer games as well. So light, thin, and relatively future proof. Also, build quality matters a lot to me.
I currently have an ASUS ROG G74SX, but it is too heavy and bulky.
The options I have in mind are (All of them are 15 inch) :
Asus G551JM with GTX 860M, i7 4710HQ at base clock 2.5Ghz, 256GB SSD + 1TB HDD and 16GB RAM
It costs 1375 USD in Norway, but i don't know whether the 860M is a future proof solution. Also it is a little bit bulkier and heavier and the two other options.
MSI GE62 4K with GTX 965M, i720HQ, 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD + 1TB HDD
Obviously the better soloution when it comes to future proofing. But reviews I have read states that the display is quite dim. Also, the MSI rep told me that the 4K screen is a 48Hz panel, meaning that i will recieve maxium 48FPS in and out of game. Costs 1625 USD
The 1080p version isn't sold in Norway.
Asus G501 GTX960M 4GB,Core i7-4720HQ,16GB RAM,128GB SSD,1TB HDD
Definately the option who looks the nicest. Again, I don't know whether the card is future proof, and it costs 1750 USD in Norway, so more than the two others. However, I am absolutely IN LOVE with the slim and light looks of the laptop.
There is a limited number of variations of these PC models in Norway, so these are the ones I have found that matches my budget and needs the best, so which one should I go for and why? And are there any of them I should stay away from? (Why?)
Also, if you think there are any other PCs I should consider that are like any of these three, feel free to suggest themBut please no Sager/Clevo as the only reseller in Norway sucks. Keep in mind that prices in Norway are generally higher though.
It can be 17 inch as well, but not heavy and bulky
Thank you, and I look forward to reading what you think!

Okay, but still, people I know have had bad experiences with the company. Out of these three, which one would you pick?
which one for casual gaming?
