Hello people, I am buying a new gaming laptop but I am stuck on whether to get the Aorus X5 V6 or the X7 V6. Here are the links to the two:

Any advice is appreciated Thanks

The only differences, based on specs, are 1) Screen Size, 2) Resolution, 3) Weight, and 4) Price. So,

If you want a smaller and lightweight laptop, then, get the X5.
If you want a bigger and heavier laptop, then, get the X7.

The X7 is 17" with 1080p resolution (Full HD). The pixel density is less dense compared to the X5 which is 1620p (Quad HD+), but it is not pixelated. The GPU (GTX 1070) would run easier in rendering graphics on the X7 (1080p) than on the X5 (1620p) due to the number of pixels. Though the GTX 1070 is capable of gaming at ~1440p (Quad HD), in certain GPU-intensive games, you might have to decrease in-game settings to get smoother ~60fps gaming.

If you are on a tight budget, then, get the X7 for $100 less than the X5.
