Never i repeat never buy a laptop for it s aesthetics especially slim ones i have experience first hand. The first thing you should seek before buying one is checking feedback online on thermals even if you need to sacrifice a bit on thickness.

I second this, as someone who went with 3 gaming laptops in 2 years (sold used). Fan noise issues, fan speed regulation annoyance, aggressive alternating throttling (esp when CPU and GPU have combined heatsink). I'm not against throttling as you don't lose much surprisingly, but one stutter is enough to dump it down the bin imo.
Pro tip: Take any tip or info from Notebookreviews.com (forum aswell) as a grain of salt. It's the leading website when it comes to AstroTurfing, very easy to fall into their trap, company representatives and retailers are masqueraded as forum members with multiple accounts.

MaxQ resolved that without CPU/GPU throtelling. Been using the MSI GS75 Stealth for portable gaming & its perfect.

This.

You need to "know a guy" from the east side of Beirut and he'll take care of finding it for you. Or check OLX.
Alright thanks a lot for the suggestion guys, the Y7000 seems good. I also found this laptop at mojitech. Anyone has any opinion about it ?

Edit: This aswell.

The TUF looks awesome

I thought so as well, but I’m concerned about its build quality (specifically temperature and noise)

it might a bit noisier and more heating prone because of the slim build , but still for this price you are getting awesome specs .. it can use as a portable workstation

I kinda need it by the end of this week, so I don't think that would be possible. Thank you for the offer though.
