Hey /g/
Need a new laptop after 8 years, looking for something in the 15-17 inch range. Something that will be able to handle work and some intermittent gaming to pass time. Not looking like a 12 year old designed it is a big plus. Currently looking at an MSI GT72VR Dominator or the MSI GT62VR Dominator. Both configs are offered at just about $2000. Any suggestions?

Get a Sager/Clevo. Design is pretty understated (minus the RGB keyboards they added to some of the latest generation line) and performance is excellent with no thermal throttling.

Thanks, Ill look into them, ive heard great things about the Sager
Clevos are cheaper than other brands with similar hardware and functionality. They don't look retarded either which is nice. Biggest problem I've heard about is IPS bleed with their screens. Whatever you're thinking about getting, look at reviews from notebookcheck first, they do extensive testing.

Had one for about a year. Absolutely fantastic, I can't give my machine enough praise
