PLZ HELP! I'm looking to buy a laptop that is powerful enough to do some serious editing with premiere pro but is reasonably priced. I'm trying to decide between the asus n550jk, the asus k550jk, and asus tp500 any knowledge is appreciated please let me know.
Specs and prices:
Asus N550jk: http://www.amazon.ca/ASUS-N550JK-DS71T-15-6-Inch-Touchscreen-Laptop/dp/B00IAA5BSS/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1439695039&sr=1-1&keywords=asus+n550

Asus K550jkhttp://www.amazon.ca/K550jk-dh71-ca-15-6in-1366x768-i7-4710hq-1600mhz/dp/B00PSPD7QG/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1439610887&sr=8-2&keywords=asus+n550jk

Asus TP500: http://www.amazon.ca/ASUS-Transformer-TP500LN-QB72T-CB-Touchscreen-15-6-inch/dp/B00LWB5OR0/ref=sr_1_6?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1439694452&sr=1-6
 
Solution
Right off the bat, disregard the ASUS TP500, as it only uses a dual-core, low-power i7, while the N550 and K550 both carry true quad-core i7s. They also have much better graphics cards. The K550 is much cheaper at only 1015 CDN, but it also only has a 1366x768 display. The N550 comes with a touchscreen and a 1920x1080 panel. The N550 also comes with a tiny subwoofer that, combined with the main speakers, provides excellent sound quality and volume. It's up to you whether the additional 400 CDN for the N550 is worth the better screen, touch panel, and better speakers.
