If you are gaming, go with msi. but if you want to multitask, go with ASUS (This includes streaming)

Aside from specs things such as battery life, thermals, keyboard, build quality and screen are important for a laptop. I suggest you try both out at a store and see which you like better before making a purchase.

i would go with the Asus one as it has ryzen which is better for multitasking- depends on what your planning to do with it though?

Ryzen isn't very weak? It's a pretty solid processor. Intel does perform better on somethings, like adobe products but they are pretty comparable.

 

Do they have any extra features you're looking for? Touchscreen, lighting connectors, or anything else?
