Which Laptop to consider

Hi guys, I'm looking to buy a new laptop and need a few pointers as to what I should get. Speed and moderate gaming is on the priority list although value will play a major role as well. I've currently set my eyes on two machines:

1) MSI GE40-2OC-205AU $1589.00 AUD
CPU: Intel 4th Gen. i7-4702MQ 2.2GHz(Turbo 3.2GHz)
OS: Windows 8 64 bit
RAM: 16GB DDR3
HDD: 128GB SSD
Graphic: Nvidia GTX 760M Graphics
2GB DDR5 Dedicated VGA
Screen: 14” LED Screen
*2yrs Warranty * 2kgs

2) ACER Aspire V3-772G-747A161.12TBDWAK $1559.00 AUD
CPU: Intel 4th Generation Core i7-4702MQ 2.2GHz(Turbo 3.2GHz)
OS: Windows 8 64bit
RAM: 16GB DDR3
HDD: 120GB SSD + 1TB SATA
Graphic: Nvidia GT 750M
4GB Dedicated VGA
Screen: 17.3” FHD(1920x1080) LED Screen
*1yr Warranty* 3.2kgs

My question is, should I go for the Acer, which will let me save $30 and get a larger screen and more storage albeit at a trade-off of a weaker GPU, 1 year less warranty and added weight. Also note if I went with the MSI product, I'll need to buy an external drive for movies and anime

If you will play lots of games, go for the HDD one, otherwise the single SSD one got a more powerful GPU. I personally would go for the first.
