    Looking to get a modest upgrade over my current 3 yr old Asus N56VZ with Nvidia 650M

    Requirements -at least 1920x1080, not 100% convinced I need ultra HD or 4K -best value in GPU I can get in a machine under roughly $2400 -touchscreen, undecided. How reliable are they? This is important!

    I'm NOT a gamer and can't stand the whole gaming aesthetic in laptop design, primarily interested in 1 low Unity baking times and playback performance, 2 general 3D rendering performance and 3 screen quality 4 reliability

    Have narrowed my choice so far down to 3 models. Was considering the Asus Zenbook, but can't get past the glossy screen:(

    1. MSI GS60 6QE GHOST PRO 4K 6th gen i7 16GB RAM GTX 970M 6GB GDDR5 15.6" ultra HD Starting at $1882.99 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834152940

    2. Dell XPS 15 i7 16GB RAM GTX 960M 2GB GDDR5 15.6" 1080p non touch (ultra HD touch available) Starting at $1,829.99 http://www.dell.com/us/p/xps-15-9550-laptop/pd?oc=dncwx1630s&model_id=xps-15-9550-laptop

    3. Dell Inspiron 15 7000Series i7 16GB RAM GT 750M 4GB 15.6" Touchscreen Starting at ? http://www.dell.com/us/p/inspiron-15-7537/pd?oc=&l=en&s=dhs
