Now that the excitement over Nvidia's new "Pascal" graphics cards has passed, it's time to take a closer look at what to look for in a gaming notebook here in the second half of 2016.
In this article, we'll be reviewing what to look for, component-by-component, in a gaming notebook. Different budgets will be addressed, from sub-$900 to over $2,000. Even with a modest budget, you can still get a notebook that will let you play today's titles.
This article is focused on providing advice for getting a gaming notebook to play popular AAA titles, such as Ubisoft's Far Cry Primal and Square Enix's Rise of the Tomb Raider. If you primarily play web browser-based games, it's generally unnecessary to invest in a dedicated gaming notebook. You can get away with much less, such as an Ultrabook with integrated graphics. The Dell Inspiron 13 7000 series is one example.

First of all, sorry for bad English! I am looking for a replacement for my old G74SX, but I am in doubt between AW17R4 - G752VS - GT73VR.
Can anyone describe me the quality of the keyboard of the AW17R4, does it resemble that of the VOSTRO 3300?
Could someone here help me choose?
Which brand has the best build quality and the best cooling solution? And why?
Which brand has the best screen? And why?
IPS 75 Hz or TN 120 Hz?
GTX 1070 for 1080P is too much (I intend to keep this notebook for a period of 3 to 5 years)? -

If you want to play the latest games for several years, then get the GTX 1070.
The IPS 75Hz panel should have better picture quality, but the TN 120Hz display may look smoother.
The MSI GT73VR and Asus G752VS are very competitive, you can't go wrong with either.

I'd rather take the GT73VR, very poor experience with my returned G752VS!
