Hello fellow (non) gamers.

 

I need to buy a Laptop to use in my Mechanical Engineering degree (3D modeling and rendering) and to game on it on my spare time.

I'm leaning to this models:

Lenovo Legion Y520-15IKB-170 for 799.90€ (941.08$) and it includes the offer of a copy of Rocket League.

Asus ROG GL552VW-76C96CS1 for 719.00€ (845.90$) and it includes the offer of a backpack.

Which one do you think it's the best choice?

 

Thanks in advance!

 

PS: Here are the links for both models if you're interested (sorry that's not in English)
