What to look for in a powerdrill

I'm trying to screw some large screws into hardwood at the moment and need a drill up to the task (my cordless 14.4V Ryobi does it's best but just doesn't have the torque to sink it all the way in)

I bought a 710W Otizo power hammer drill hoping it'd do the job but instead it just smoked like crazy (my cordless drove the screw further!)

So I'm going to take the Ozito back and try and get a refund considering it sucked. What should I look for in a new one? There was a 710W Makita my fiance took a fancy to however would I just have the same problem with the lack of torque considering it is the same wattage?

The wood I'm going into is very hard (blunted many a drill bit and bend many nails trying to ge into the Damn thing)

So please let meet know what I should look for in a drill to be sure it is up to the task.
