I am currently debating which one to buy out of 2 mentioned above. The main differences are:
N551: 850m 4GB, 1000 SSHD (1000 HDD + 24GB SSD), i7 4710hq, 12GB RAM
N550: 850m 2GB, 1000 HDD, i7 4700hq, 8GB RAM
The main difference is that n551 is 90 $ more, and since I am already spending ~ 1200 $ every dollar counts. Is getting n551 worth it? I mean I can buy more RAM in the future, and I know that 4710 vs 4700 makes almost no difference, so does SSHD and 2 GB of ram more make any difference (since I'll be playing only in 1080p)? I'll be buying the next laptop in 5 years so this one has to last. It will be used for movies, gaming, university (not heavy usage), etc. I don't live in the US so these 2 are my only options atm.
