Im buying a laptop I need help choosing between theese two, or if you can find something better in the -500€-ish price range

Option one: http://cdon.fi/kodin_elektroniikka/acer/acer-v5-561g-54208g1tmaik-15-6-i5-4200u-8gb-1tb-amd-r7-2gb-w8-1-p27353088

I would buy the Acer casue it has a better graphics card but ive heard that Acer is unreliable, but I dont know, please share your thoughts and thank you in advance,

if you plan to game the acer would be the only option. but you're right. acer makes cheap junk. if you have no intention of gaming that asus is fine.
