Which laptop for 1080p60 AAA Gaming?

[markhannelly]

Which would be better?

 

Acer Nitro 5 AN515-44: AMD Ryzen 4600H, 1650Ti 4GB VRAM, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD, 144hz 15" Screen - £770

-OR-

Asus Zephyrus G GA502DU - AMD 3750H, 1660Ti Max-Q 6GB VRAM, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD, 120Hz 15" Screen - £732

 

I'm leaning to the Zephyrus for it's better GPU and slimmer design, but the Nitro 5 does have a significantly better CPU and a 2.5" Bay for an SSD upgrade (although the Asus has a 2nd NVMe).

 

I've whittled down to these two based on current offers and sales in my area, anyone have either or have advice on which is better? Thanks!

Zephyrus.

Ryzen 4600H is alot better, but that won't help you, if the GPU is the Bottleneck during Gaming here.

 

Unless it's a hard-CPU-bottlenecked Game  (ashes of the singularity etc), the Zephyrus will have more fps - simply because the GPU is stronger.

CPU difference is not big enough to make a difference on the long run, since you won't be able to upgrade your GPU anyway.
