Well i got about 800$ to spend on a laptop.
My priority is higher end CPU because this will be used for VMware because we will be using virtualization a lot in school projects.
But I would also like the opportunity to play some medium requirement games well. (got my desktop for AAA games)
15.6" because 13" is to small and 17" is to bulky.
Because its not possible to get a new laptop with i7-6700HQ/i7-7700HQ i been looking around for used laptops.

Seems like the opped themself a lot on the omen version.
But i Think its made of plastic while the others are brushed aluminium.
The original price is also quite a lot lower.
