    Hi, so I've been researching these two laptops, and I'm having a tough time choosing between the P37X V4 or the P35X V4. In terms of specs and internals, they both look identical. If they both behave exactly the same, I'd certainly go for the P35X because it's basically a more portable P37X. Now, I would hope that P37X's bigger size would provide better temperatures and reduced noise level, and if that's the case, I'd go for P37X. The thing is, I don't know what the differences are between the two in terms of user experience.

    Could anyone who has tried both P37X and P35X share their experiences with both, which one they'd recommend, and why? What makes the two different apart from the size? Why choose one over the other? Is there any point to the P37X model? As of now, it just looks like a heavier P35X model. What justifies the fact that the P37X is 1 pound heavier? Better thermals and fan noise perhaps? Please let me know!

    A larger chassis will allow for slightly better airflow, but you won't see a massive difference in the cooling ability between the two. The cooling system design is similar between the two models.

    Hello! I've also been researching those notebooks.
    I'm comparing the following laptops:
    -Gigabyte P35W-V4
    -Gigabyte P35X-V4
    -Gigabyte P37W-V4
    -Gigabyte P37X-V4
    -MSI GS60 Ghost Pro-064
    -MSi GS60 Ghost Pro-606
    The Gigabytes are technically superior, but the P35's weight around 5lbs, while the P37's weight around 6lbs. The MSI's in the other hand, are super light for a gaming laptop at just around 4.2lbs.

    Now, about the Gigabytes, the P35's have an optional 3k display, but it's very unpractical since you will overadding pixels to a 15" display, plus you'll need more power to run it. The P37's have macro keys, personally I don't need them, which makes me lean more towards the P35's with 1080p displays, since they are lighter by almost a whole pound. These are the two major differences, if not the only ones.

    Here's a comparison chart of the Gigabytes:
