I've had a gaming rig for a while but need to relocate to a new city for work requirements. Its too heavy to lug around, so shall leave it home and buy a high performance gaming laptop instead.
Now, my budget is around $1400.
I will be buying this in the US and then bring it to India where I will use it.
I've done a fair bit of research and feel that a few ASUS and MSI models are providing the best specs in my price range. I am looking for advice from you all to narrow it down to one pick that I can take up asap.
Feel free to consider other factors apart from the specs, like cooling/overheating, sound, warranty and anything you consider important.
For pricing and specs, I have referred to Newegg and Amazon.
Here are the models:
1. MSI GT70 Dominator 895 - $1399. MRP: $2255. Specs wise, I feel it is the best in terms of Processor, RAM, GPU...

I had bought a SanDisk Extreme II 240GB SSD this Feb for my desktop. I would like to transfer that to the laptop I buy. I am assuming it is a plug-and-play type component with a slot at the back of the laptop. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
If you feel I should go for a different manufacturer or model, please go ahead and let me know. Any advice or help will be greatly appreciated!
