Background
I am currently attending an art school for 5 years. I currently have a Samsung Ultrabook, which is already getting in my way because it is soooooooo weak. So I am looking at these two laptops (moderately powerful budget laptops). I am open other suggestions though.
Budget
~$1000 USD max without tax and warranty. Consider a lower middle class person who isn't out on the street but every dollar DOES count for me.
Games I want to play at what setting
- CoH2 of course, prefereably at max resolution 900p or 1080p, with low to medium settings.
- Fallout 4, max resolution with low to med settings.
- MGS5, max rsolution, low setting
As you can see, I do not mind playing at quiet low setting as long as resolution is crisp. I do have a quiet powerful desktop so I just want to be able to play these games at 30+FPS on my laptop.
Conclusion
So I am torn between these two comps. I am aware that laptops get outmoded so quick. So I am wondering if that $200+ is worth it for the DS71 rather than MS71. I could not find any direct comparison between the two G-cards and I am not even sure how much worse 1600x900 is then 1920x1080.
