I cannot say as I didn't have the dragon edition. I had the GT70 and GT60. Both of those ended up being duds. I do remember a tech telling me the dragon series had a problem with certain brands of memory. But, that's my only recollection of the dragon edition.

The difference is just the screen size but the specs are the same. The machine plays games beautifuly.

I dont own a gt70... So i cant answer your question. However, what i can tell you is that this laptop is a beast. It can handle any game you throught at it in high settings. And the screen is full HD which looks really sharp and colorful. The only con i can come up on this beast is it gets hot while playing high graphical games but then again it has this big fan that you can turn on to solve the heating problem. Hope my answer helped you on your quest :)

This one has little bit slower processor (Core I7 4700) & but not that much if you compare it to to main dragon edition 2 (the one with I7 4800) but if you are looking for the extreme experience take(the dragon edition 2 extreme) with ( I7 4900 ) , but that one is very expansive & also there is 3k screen editon now (i saw the screen in normal gt70 in retail ) if you want it but i don't know if it is available in Amazon for now.

Hi, the model you ask is GT70 2OD-064US. The similar model but in 15.6" is GT60 2OD-026US. Both model has NVidia GTX780M/4Gb VRAM. However, 17.3" has 12Gb memory + 1TB HDD. 15.6" has 16Gb memory + 1TB HDD + 128Gb SSD mSATA.

I saw the info-mercial today and it looked interesting, but with all the bad experiences with the GT 101... I really would like to hear from others about their experience dealing with the company, ordering, the final price, etc. Anyone buy one?????

In our opinion, the MSI gaming laptops' screens are some of the best out there, we've been selling MSI machines for years, and even these new 2013 GT70s have screen improvements over the 2012 editions! If you have any other questions regarding GT70 laptops; feel free to let us know anytime!

It's an awesome set for gaming and its nice to have the 3D option because there a lot of games giving ability and it works great. I've tried GT5 in 3D.

its decent for it. its got integrated graphics which kinda sucks, but itll play things like skyrim on low settings, if you want to use that as a benchmark. i havent noticed any overheating problem. i personally use it for gaming as im a twitch streamer and this is my main rig atm.i havent really tried newer games on it as much. it has slowdown with dolphin (gamecube/wii emulator) but runs things like Skullgirls no problem.

No, it's the ASUS ROG G750JZ-XS72 17.3-inch Gaming Laptop, GeForce GTX 880M Graphics, which is about $500 more. Only difference is the memory is maxed out at 32GB (DS71 has 24GB) and the hard drive config comes as 1TB 7200RPM and 2x 256GB M.2 SSD (DS71 has 2x 128GB M.2 SSD).

Not sure but I am certain you can find your answer on Boss' website. If you have the money go for the GT100 though.

I personally like this model because of the 5th caster wheel. It was easier to turn, especially when I took it to the mall. I think this one is just a little smaller with smaller storage because of the wheel. But I enjoy easy steering over storage.

I can verify that for my MSI GT70, the power supply works fine, even better than the original power supply that came with the system. As far as the GT60 using the same power supply, I can only assume it will work as I believe both laptops have the same power supply requirements. Please check with the MSI manufacture page.

Yes... It's much better... 1st off it's still active online so you can race against live people... GT5 is NO longer supported by any servers ... so online play does not exist for it.... They have refined GT6 in the cars physics and handling... Graphics are really nice ... they still need help with their shadow rendering... it Plays really good and its challenging.... kinda slow at 1st because your racing "Grocery Getter" class cars... then as you progress you better and faster cars and "Real" race cars.... GT6 is worth the time and money...... Online play is pretty good and there are allot of servers running.... GT5 is NOT worth the money and there's no online play supported..... Hope this helps...

Hi, I have been playing some newer games like Watch Dogs and The Crew: Beta. They run pretty well on low settings and 720p resolution. I can play Grid : Auto sport on medium to high settings on 1080p resolution pretty well. Battlefield 3 also runs pretty smooth on medium settings with 900p resolution. So it will satisfy your minimum gaming needs. But if you are looking for better graphics you should look for the model with the nvidia gt750 card.

I'm pretty much wondering the same is there a drastic difference between the two sets? Will the Blacks be deeper on the VT25 series? I'm really not a movie buff I mostly game and with the 2D-3D conversion the GT25 has to offer I'm really torn between the two. The conversion may not be as great but it is a feature that the GT25 have over the VT25 and it's cheaper and if you can't tell the difference between PQ I would rather go with the GT25.

If you liked GT5 and played in more than any other game I'd say yes it's worth the +20 bucks. It has some great added tracks, the game play is the same. I don't like how you can't choose softer tires for races, it's set up like on-line time challenges where you have to be below certain PP and have this tire or worse. And I don't like that there's no where to see how your friends are doing on the game, other than trophy compare and TT times. But overall I'd buy it again if I had to.

I do not do "gaming" and have little experience of it. Have a feeling though that if I did and wanted to be serious about it, I'd get something with more "horsepower". Good Luck! Hope it helps.

It is an excellent desktop replacement laptop for its price. It has plenty of processing power and better than usual sound so it is good for games that do not push the video too hard. Unfortunately it uses the CPU chipset video (an integrated Intel HD Graphics 4600) which is very good as far as imbedded 3D video goes but I am not sure it is up to the cutting edge 3D performance needed by some of the newer high-end games. I do not think it has a slot to install a third party card but I could be wrong about that.
