great build quality.

4K gaming is out of the question, unless you reduce image quality.

only 2x full-size USB ports; No VGA, no RAID; One M.2 slot removed, no G-Sync, SODIMM and M.2 SSD require additional disassembly, build quality could be better, non-removable CPU and GPU, no optical drive, loud fan noise, short battery life

It may not seem like a huge upgrade from the outside, but the GS60 is a much better gaming machine than when it was a year ago. The simple move from Haswell and a GTX 8xxM GPU to Skylake and a GTX 9xxM GPU has dramatically improved temperatures. If...

well constructed, stellar screen, good keyboard and trackpad, powerful configurations, solid gaming performance for both versions, but especially the 970M model, proper priced

bright backlit logo on the hood that can't be turned off, the trackpad is too close to the laptop's bottom lip, short battery life, some heating and throttling issues on the 870M version
