The 1st Macbook is obviously better because of the high clockspeed Core i7 CPU. It also has more storage capacity. The GT 750m is also a little more powerful than the Intel Iris Pro 5200; not by too much though. But it will obviously cost more than the 2nd Macbook.


Intel does not release graphic drivers as often as nVidia so that may be something you need to consider.
