Hello guys,

Not entirely sure if this is the right place to ask but here goes anyway;

I'm planning on buying a gaming laptop, and I have certain demands for it and have also decided on my budget (or close estimate)
The thing is there are plenty of laptops that might fit the description however I rather ask someone who has more experience than me before I go through with the purchase.

So i'll just list a few things and hope someone would be as kind to shed some proper light on the pros and cons and perhaps the best choice.

What i'm looking for;
- i'd like it to have an i7 cpu
- a geforce 970m card
- min 16gb ram
- an ssd drive to speed up games loading et cetera.
- 15,6 inch screen
- and i'd prefer it to look casual, I don't need a fighter jet-looking laptop with nightclub lights panning up and down and stuff. Just simple but powerful.

My budget sits between 1500 euros(1.060gbp) - 1700 euros (1.201gbp) and as far as my research goes that is pretty acceptable for the hardware i'm looking for.

I do however not know what might be the best choice for me, there are msi laptops, bto laptops (bto.eu) and most of them have what I need, basically.

Also, i'm european so that makes shipping from the states impossible for some brands.

So, what do you guys suggest?

Thanks for your time.
