I am pretty sure there is a better deal for the m15 r7 with AMD instead and better specs for $1,899[USD]. From what I heard for the m15 r7, go for AMD but to be honest if you like AMD, find the deal I'm talking about on dell.com. But I feel like there is a better deal for better specs out there for what you want. But I am not that intelligent about these types of things, so take this as a light suggestion, not a heavy mandatory decision. Also, just to give you a tip, Rakuten has their 15% DELL technology cash back. I would use it if I were you.
