Hello everyone,

Once again, I need your help, this time with choosing the right gaming laptop, not the best one.

I have been searching on the web for a while and I found these among the best ones within my price range:

1) http://www.amazon.com/GL551JW-DS74-15-6-Inch-Gaming-Laptop-GTX960M/dp/B00T7XRGGC/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1433433351&sr=1-1&keywords=ASUS+ROG+GL551JW-DS74&pebp=1433433356635&perid=0PQ2C8NAD8G8RVKXBK4R

2) http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TI6TFHQ/ref=psdc_565108_t3_B00T7XRH2A

3) http://www.amazon.com/MSI-GE62-Apache-082-15-6-Inch-Aluminum/dp/B00YPEIFYA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1433433529&sr=8-1&keywords=MSI+GE+Series+GE62+Apache-082&pebp=1433433536714&perid=02BEFWEDWM86E6T3QSS9

4) http://www.amazon.com/HP-15-5010nr-Gaming-Notebook-Beats/dp/B00O0M750W/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1433430843&sr=1-1&keywords=hp+omen&pebp=1433430853530&perid=1T064X0Q2T08XF6YRSFV

My needs (More like requirements):

- The less wight, the better

- The thinner, the better

- Used only while outside the house (The easier portability, the better)

- some spec requirements, like the screen size and gpu and what not, so it will be perfect if you choose from the 4 above

- the overall more quality parts, the better

I really want to know which one to choose and please if you can, tell me the reason why you choose what you would choose.

Thank you very much for your time, I really appreciate it!

Lol .. He said thin, and less weight, aha ! I have not seen great cheap laptop/desktops that are for gaming that are light. Best of luck, unless you want to spend mega $$

I just want affordable thin/light laptops, like I said, I need the best that I could get with my budget, something reasonable, not the best.

8gb vs 16gb for gaming is not going to make a difference, you can always add more later. However having a cpu thats clocked higher will help you more in the long run.

- The less wight, the better

- The thinner, the better

Those two things and gaming don't mix. I know the industry has pushed gaming in ultra thin laptops as the in thing. But I hear nothing but heat and throttling issues along with lower life spans do the non stop over heating that happens on such small machines.
