Need another laptop

[jcrog]

I am mostly using it for office type stuff. Maybe some light gaming (but mostly older games).

Which of these is better:

I'll even take other suggestions in this price range...

Thanks!

The Acer A10 will play games better then the Lenovo will. The Lenovo will do EVERYTHING else better.
The A10 is a weak CPU with a better then intel integrated graphics GPU.

For older games the intel grpahics will be just fine though.

The Lenovo is also better build quality over Lenovo.

What is your budget, should be able to find an i5 with at least a gt 840 chip in it for not much more.

I'd like to keep it around or under $500 if possible.

At a $500 budget that Lenovo is about the best bang for buck you are going to get.
To get laptop with dedicated graphics will cost low $600s, for one that will play new games very well $900.

The lenovo is better suited for your tasks as you are not going to play that much compared to doing normal office work.

How does that lenovo compare to this one?

The lenovo z50 has the advantage of space, more ram and a better wifi module. The g50 on the other hand has a better cpu and gpu. Based on the things you are doing, I would get the z series as you will be doing office work as the performance increase of the cpu of the g series is not worth it.
