Acer Aspire Nitro VN7 or Lenovo Y50-70 4K

[Volex]

For my study I have to buy a laptop with a good graphics card and my budget is between the 1100 and 1200 pounds. I doubt which laptop is the best, especially between the lenovo y50-70 4K ( [url=http/uk.hardware.info/productinfo/277126/lenovo-ideapad-y50-70-59436484]http/uk.hardware.info/productinfo/277126/lenovo-ideapad-y50-70-59436484 [/url]) and the Acer Aspire Nitro (http/uk.hardware.info/productinfo/285512/acer-aspire-nitro-vn7-591g-768l/specifications). Which laptop would you buy?

Acer is not as reliable, check out this sager. (you can add 4k) http/www.sagernotebook.com/customize.php?productid=406

Out of the 2, the acer is the best choice. But I would recommend at looking at barebone laptops like sagar as they offer better upgradability and are generally cheaper. But there are less reviews about them and they are less known.

At least Acer did not install superfish.

The acer has a slightly better cpu, a much better gpu, better storage due the ssd. Also acer is better at making gaming laptops than Lenovo as they are better at making office laptops.

As for the barebone laptops, they are more customisable than branded laptops. This allows you to configure the laptop the way you like it and it will be cheaper. But like I have said in the previous post, there are less reviews.

Typing this answer from a Lenovo Y50-70 4K: I strongly suggest to avoid the Lenovo.

- Keyboard it's a complete crap (misses 1 every 15 keystrokes or so, and you'll be forced to carefully read everything you type in order to avoid typing errors).
- Screen color calibration it's terrible: yellows look like mustard.
- Battery life it's a joke. You can't even get 2 hours of normal use (like browsing the web)

This doesn't mean you can''t use this laptop, but if you type a lot or do some kind of design work (like myself), you'll hate this laptop.

Basically I just use it like a desktop machine, plugged in to an external keyboard and monitor.

The Acer one has a slightly better graphics card.Plus that I know that the Lenovo Y50-70 has heating problems.And I don't think you need a 4k display neither 16gb RAM.Better go for Asus ROG G551JW: Intel Core i7-4720HQ, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M, 8GB RAM(or 16gb but 8 is enough), 1920x1080 (Full HD) 15,6 inch display.It's as good as those you mentioned but it's a lot cheaper.Not to mention it has a better build quality.
