There's nominally one on Amazon right now https://www.amazon.com/GIGABYTE-Aero-15X-BK4-Notebook-i7-7700HQ/dp/B076FLGX9D?th=1&psc=1 -- I almost grabbed it/ cancelled my pre-order at excaliber until I realized that the Amazon listing is also from excaliber so I'm just crossing my fingers.
This seems to be the last batch of the 7th gen cpu ones so if you can hold out until April the 8th gen do sound pretty sweet. I'd personally rather sooner since I've been looking to replace my laptop since last fall, but the 8th gen cpu looks like a nice consolation prize if it comes to it.
Why are you shilling that laptop so hard? I've held both and the Gigabyte's build quality really isn't that great. In fact, the only real memorable things about it were the light bleed and the weird webcam placement. But don't take my word for it. Comparing the two spec sheets at the same price side-by-side we see only a few differences
Gigabyte | MSI
---|---
6GB VRAM | 8GB VRAM
4.62 lbs | 4.14 lbs
i7 7700 | i7 8750
nope | Fingerprint reader
And for going on about build quality, your computer sure seems to [have](http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/issues-with-my-aero-15x.814660/) a lot of issues.
So sorry, what, exactly, makes you think the Aero is the better computer overall?
Just sharing what I found: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076FLGX9D/ref=psdc_13896615011_t1_B0763HJSQ7
Looks like dual drive (SSD and HDD)... I guess that's a yes.
I can think of couple of options this MSI GE63VR Raider, the PROSTAR Clevo P950HR, and if you care about battery life there is also this areo 15x but that is a little over your budget.
