Hello guys, first, I apologize if I am posting on the wrong forum. I am looking to get into game/app making. I am wondering which of the following laptops would run the software needed for such hobby. Example: Maya/3DS Max or Blender, Photoshop, Unity 3D 5.3 etc. I would also like to be able to do some light gaming on the machine. Here are four of my selection, but if you know of any others, please let me know. Note, I am looking for a slim body. Thank you!

Aorus X5-CF1

Those all have their good points, WS60 is the only one with a real pro video card, good for your programs.
GS60 has the 4k display so sharp and can fit a lot on it, but the video card will struggle with games on that unless you lower resolution.

GS70 is a good gaming system with a larger screen.

Aorus has a decent sounding screen but has SLI which adds more complexity to the hardware and game support.

So really any of those can be good depending on what you like as a feature.

If it was me, I'd get the WS60 for non-demanding gaming and pro applications if that is your priority and probably the GS70 for games if you don't care about the larger size due to the large screen.
