Asus or Toshiba which is the better laptop?

Question

So I have narrowed down to 2 laptops that I can get which is an Toshiba Qosmio Laptop and an ASUS. I don't really know which would be better to have since I plan to use it for gaming (of course) and to store a lot of videos/ video editing on it as well. Since you guys might have better understanding of which on is better your guidance would be much appreciated!
