Acer Aspire V 15 Nitro VN7-572TG-775T Versus MSi GE60 2PE Apache Pro

I'm trying to decide between this Acer and a (used) MSi GE60 2PE Apache Pro. Can you compare them? I like that the MSi is used because many of them seem to be lemons from the manufacturer. I already sent the first one I ever bought back because the screen did not work. Thanks!

The MSi is the faster choice due to the 4core8thread CPU. However I would personally invest in some newer tech than those two. Depending on your budget of course.

Thanks for the reply. It's helpful. I had heard that quad core can make a noticeable difference in performance. I'm not acutally using it for gaming, though. I just want something a bit "future proof" and strong enough for using video in work situations without going to "buffer," and other such unprofessional things. And yes, budget is the key. I'm unable to go much higher than this at the moment.

Then the nitro will do the job and has a guaranteed better battery life.
