Hello All, I recently purchased the aspire thinking it was the best i was going to find in my price range and then of course after i buy it my friend offers me his old gaming laptop (MSI) for less than what i spent on the acer. From what i can tell they both have similar specs except the msi has a better screen, dedicated gpu and an intel proocessor (im a bit intel bias) i purchased a new ssd with the acer to compliment my snappy new computer but could i have a better computer if i put the ssd in the msi? Im not huge into videogames but i like having the option. Which of the two is the better laptop?

The MSi would crush the Acer. The AMD processor doesn't have any L3 cache, only supports 2 extension (Fma4 and AES), and has a lower clock speed.

If battery life is what your after then the 15w AMD will outlast the 45w Intel everyday when running both at full bore.
