    Hello,

    I am buying a gaming laptop with the GTX970M. I have narrowed it down to:

    -MSI GT60 Dominator 1065 with GTX970 3GB
    Price: 1499$
    or
    -Sager NP8262 (Clevo P150SM-A) with GTX970 6GB (Available at the end of October)
    Price: 1399$


    I want advice of the community regarding these laptops specially which laptop may have better heat management.

    P.S. My budget is strictly under $1500 so if anyone has another laptop in mid with GTX970M pls do mention.

    Thankyou

    well, seeing as both heating systems are supposed to be on par and ud get the larger vram version for 100 bucks less its kinda a nobrainer... ;)

    Dual fans in the NP8262 will get you better cooling but a single fan does get you a little better battery life if that is important to you.
