The second laptop you listed has slower a RAM speed. 2133mhz vs
2400mhz, and a slightly smaller battery. 38Whr vs 42Whr. The second one is also thinner and has smaller bezels.
Go with the HP. It has a 7th gen i3 and up to 11 hours although I highly doubt you’ll get 11 hours it’s still the better buy. There’s no way you could play h1z1 or pubg though.
66-70 degrees Celsius is pretty hot (but not insanse) for a laptop. And if it is overheating it will shutdown at a certain temperature to protect the components. So if it hasn’t done that yet it’s not overheating. Also I would recommend checking to see if there is dust build up around...
