Are you looking new or second hand market? It will make a big difference to the answer.

Second hand wise, a G68 variant will probably give more bang for the buck as the G61r is more recent and more scarce and hence have a price premium over most G68's. The G61r also has the little used USB audio input that, due to their age, most G68's do not - not really a must have feature for most.

If buying new, the G61r is probably the better choice if you don't need any of the features of one of the G68 variants.

Otherwise, performance wise, they are identical. Feature wise, most G68's have more options (G68J excluded) hence need a taller case.

It really is a matter of checking what features you need and comparing prices and availability.
