Hello I’m looking in to get new laptop and I’ve found 2 good ones just can’t decide witch one to go with! Mostly going to be doing school and what not on it. Light gaming would be a plus but I have a steam deck so not needed. 
 

option 1: 

Dell 2022 Vostro 14 5000 5410 Business Laptop 11th

Gen Intel Core 17-11390H 4-Core, 16G RAM 512G SSD

14 FHD Screen, Intel Iris Xe Graphics, 


option 2: 

Acer swift

AMD Ryzen 7 5825U processor

Nvidia RTX 3050 Ti graphics

16GB RAM

512GB SSD

14-inch. 
 

there both used but in excellent condition around the same price. 
 

thank you the advice!

I personally would go with the second option, I believe you would get better performance in most things, but they're pretty similar. The biggest difference is the 3050, it is way better than the Iris Xe. Hope this helps. But between the 2 CPUs, they both have their fair share of advantages and disadvantages, but I'd go for the Ryzen 7 5825U.

Well if you want to play games where higher FPS are necessary the Acer Swift is the go to because of the dedicated GPU. If its really lite stuff like... dont now... civ (rather light on the gpu) the Dell one would work as well... both would be fine for school work... but you could look at other options like the Gigabyte G5 with a 12500H and a 3050
