It will probably be around, if not more than 60.

Since AutoCad really only requires one thread, the Asus would be fine, and it is a hyperthreaded core, so it will run most games. The GPU's are pretty much the same. 8GB of ram would probably be plenty, unless you are going to be doing lots of things at once. The Asus also has better battery...

You probably want to get one with at least a Nvidia GT 740M, or Radeon R7 275X. Next priority would be a good processor, like an Intel i7.

Look on Lenovo, they are currently having a sale on the Y40 14 inch gaming laptops. What kind of Gaming are you looking at?
