    Currently i have a rog g46 and i love(d) everything about it. Design, performance, size etc.

    However having a ssd at home at my desktop but not laptop started bothering me and ofc iching to spend money too lol.
    Somehow i am in love with the design of rog laptops and since asus didn`t come up with a new 14`` stealth design but Aorus did i am conderseing the x3+ v4.

    Is there a big difference in between build quality of g46 and Aorus x3 v4?
    How is the temperature while surfing/gaming or fan noise? I know tech specs and performance of g46 and x3+ can`t even be compared but would i regret moving to aorus from rog in anyway???

    If aorus is a bad replacement for arogg46? what else would you suggest? portable cool looking worth the money type of laptop? Being quiet is really important for me

    Please help me with your xp cos i am about to pull the plug today or tomorrow.

    3rd option would be a 15`` alienware since both aorus and alienware are in $1500-1700 range

    The aorus x3 is not known for its superb build quality. The screenlid has a lot of flex and the keyboard as well. The alienware 15 comes closer to he rog machines but is heavier than the aorus. But the aw15 runs much cooler and quieter.

    You think a new stealth 14'' rog coming to replace the g46vw? :)
    I normally don`t buy electronics after the launch. Better to wait 6months sometimes a year to price go down plus possible bug fixes.
