Help Me Decide The Better One Between These 2 by princemi(op): 12:14pm On Jun 17, 2015
I want to buy a laptop within the price range of 50-60k. I'll be using the laptop to run basic architectural and planning softwares like Autocard, Revit & ArcGIS.

i have 2 in mind but am kind of in a fix, below are the 2 and their basic specs and online price from konga. Please help me decide;

1st LAPTOP
Windows 8.1 500 GB HDD
4 GB RAM 15.6 Inch, HD
Display
2.1GHz Intel Dual
Core Processor
₦60,000
Brand Lenovo G50-30

2nd LAPTOP

Windows 8.1 2GB DDR3 RAM,
500GB HDD
15.6 Inch, Diagonal
HD Anti-glare Flat
LED-Backlit
AMD Dual Core
(1.35GHz,1 MB
cache)
With AMD Radeon
R2 Graphics

I would pick the 1st option for these reasons:

1) It's Intel processor. My first laptop has AMD processor, and that laptop gave me a lot of stress. I've avoided AMD processors ever since.

2) It has 4GB RAM, which is double the other. More RAM is always better.

Cheers.

I'd say go for the 2nd, AMD processors are good for processing graphics, you could ask for an upgrade though for the ram.
