Solved! Planning to buy a new Laptop but cannot decide between 2 options

[radioactivegames77]

Hi! Recently I've benn lurking on internet searching for a new laptop that I need for my work.
I want to use this programs along with some gaming
3ds Max (modeling and rendering)
Unreal Engine (Video game design and programming)
Some Photoshop
Little Video Editing
After navigating stores and stores my Options are narrowed to 2 finalists.
I've tried to find one that has both I7 8750H and 1060Gtx but let's say is over my current budget

Dell G3:
I7-8750H
1050TI GTX
8GB Ram
128GB SSD
1TB HDD

AND

Lenovo Legion Y720
I7-7700HQ
1060 GTX
16GB RAM
128GB SSD
1TB HDD

What do you think will come more useful for what I want to do?

If gaming and graphics is your aim, then i would get the Lenovo, if CPU intensive tasks are what you want to focus on, get the DELL.

Gaming is not purely my aim, it's video game and contnent design along with gaming

I think it would be a balance between GPU and CPU, 3DS MAX at rendering uses CPU, while Unreal Engine uses lots of GPU (although not when building lights or compiling), Photoshop uses Both, Video Editing CPU and Gaming is more GPU so here seems to be a balance, the increase in CPU is overwhelming though RAM seems to be pretty limiting with just 8GB

The Dell Cpu is better for productivity tasks.
I picked up the G5 about a month ago. Same processor,video card and 16gig ram. So far all is good.
You can order them through Dell and configure 16 gig of ram or update it yourself.

Yeah but I'm from Mexico and only one store offers me the paying method that I can afford so 16Gb or RAM on that Dell is something I can't afford
