Posted August 11, 2017 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) https://www.pcdiga.com/portatil-lenovo-legion-y520-15-6-y520-15ikb-170 https://www.pcdiga.com/portatil-asus-rog-15-6-gl552vw-76c96cs1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
