Hello guys,

 

I want to ask you about 2 laptops and their specs.

The first one is a Lenovo with i5-4200m + GT 745m + 8gb RAM at 1900x600 resolution.
The second is an Acer with i7-4702mq + GT 750m + 8 RAM at 1920x1080 resolution.

Which one will have better performance in games and will the difference in fps will be big enough to dissapoint me? (Games like Far Cry 3,Crysis 3 etc.)

I don't care to run at MAX settings.Medium is enough for me.

Currently the Lenovo is at 599 euros while the Acer is at 789 euros.

Please tell the difference in fps and what do you suggest me to buy?

P.S The Lenovo has 8gb SSHD.

The resolution on the acer is higher, as is the CPU. I would go with the acer.

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

The acer for sure. the i5 4200m is only a dual core, where the i7 4702mq is a quad.
