well then you'd simply be trading for a smaller machine with virtually the same GPU performance. Did the person actually tell you the specs of the x15 they are trading and did you review it to decide if its what you want?

Yap his x15s same spec as my g750jh. But only 16gb ram and no 3d.

Well then:
#1 How much RAM does your usage patterns normally demand? Remember RAM is still upgradeable on a Aftershock X15

#2 Do you use the 3D feature or consider it essential

It is important to know what exactly do you need cos frankly aside from having a lighter weight i cannot say that the X15 has any clear advantage over the G750, eveything else is subjective.


Thanks for the advance.. But aftershocks can go future upgrade right? For Asus cannot.right?

What do you intend to upgrade, and in the long term are you certain you will want to keep the same laptop and upgrade parts? Things like RAM and Hard drive are easily upgradeable but CPU or graphics card is subject to things like the bios or socket which can change (eg. from ivy bridge to haswell the socket changed so old machines cant do a CPU upgrade to haswell)

So far for mobile graphics, the best is GTX980 8GB DDR5. MSI being the leader in gaming laptops, are given priority when top end graphics are launched. That's why you always see MSI launching the latest graphics ahead of other brands. :)

Long story short:

- that case is a matter of the GPU model having different amount of VRAM. The usual benefit of having more VRAM is being able to handle higher display resolutions and higher res textures.

- MSI does not sell SLI gaming notebooks, there are only 3 in existence by alienware, clevo and aorus

- SLI although it increases your performance, the VRAM does not double cos the multiple GPUs are storing the same data in their separate memory (since they're rendering the same scene)
