ASUS has really good cooling solution and has better case quality.
MSI has a little bit more performance components inside than ASUS but with lower case quality and a bit worse cooling solution.
Both have great technical support. I've been using both for 15 years and never had any issues. I have an MSI 17" gaming laptop from company that I use for work and in 2 years it never had any hiccup and works outstanding. Then I had a few ASUS gaming laptops and only one of them had an issue with BIOS chip, which was replaced no questions asked by ASUS service in 1 day and service reps were really nice. My friend has two ASUS gaming laptops and none of them has any issues or whatsoever. The latest one that he got is the ASUS STRIX model, which has an awesome cooling solution and really nice built quality - the screen is really nice.
