Help me To choose Laptop

[Akira Shimazu]

So i want to buy budget laptop for my everyday use and sometimes heavy use like Rendering1080p 60fps or gaming like fortnite (low)

i found a asus VIvobook S14 which has 2 type.

 

Asus S14 S410UF                              Asus S14 S410UN

Intel® Core™ i7 8550U Processor  . Intel® Core™ i5 8250U Processor

8 GB DDR3L 2800MHz SDRAM     . 8 GB DDR4 2800MHz SDRAM

MX130 2GB GDDR5 VRAM            . NVIDIA GeForce MX150 4GB GDDR5 VRAM

 

The S14 S410UF(left)  is 100$- 130$ more expensive than the right

 

i really confuse should i choose i7 or ddr4 with mx1504gb.  which one is the best?

The i5 as it is cheaper, performs similary and maybe better with the better GPU.

The Asus S14 S410UN seems to be a better choice.

The i5 8250U performs pretty similarly to the i7 8550U and the MX150 is a bit better than the MX130, so go for the cheaper laptop on the right side.

i thought the same thing but, won't i7 is much more better than i5?

the max i7 clock is 4ghz while the i5 3.4 ghz

HardwareCanucks compared those two CPUs in a rendering test and they performed pretty similarly.

so the max clock doesnt affect too much?

[forregacc02]

i5-8250u vs i7-8550u = Minor speed increase. Almost unnoticeable

 

MX130 vs MX150 = 50% better performance! You probably won't even be able to play Fortnite properly on an MX130

 

The MX150 (25w variant) is crazy good for the relative amount of power and heat. You can play serious games on low settings, and competitive games comfortably

The cooling of this laptop won't allow the i7 to pull up too much more ahead of the i5 afaik

You get over 60 FPS in Fortnite at 720p medium settings with a MX130. I'm pretty sure that's playable.

so it wont go max clock and stay with same level as i5?

most likely yes

Vivobooks are mediocre in general, wouldn't recommend them
