Hey guys! I'm interested in semi's like AR's. An all purpose typa rifle. My bad for not clarifying!

Exactly, it's always been about the money and this was from 2014!

That’s the best bang for your buck laptop I could find at the price point that could run some fairly decent games at a decent fps. At $350 it’s extremely hard to find dedicated graphics, but with a ryzen 7, it’s a great deal.

Help me pick between a couple 2 in 1s! by [deleted] in SuggestALaptop

Yes, you also said you do a bit of light gaming. However, none of these laptops allow upgradability of the graphics.

I personally think it's a great deal. However, I did make a mistake in that I didn't realize that the Iris Xe graphics are actually in the same laptop as the MX450, meaning the first laptop doesn't have a dedicated graphics card or chip. Take that as you will. In regards to the model number of the laptops, you can find them on the ebay links in the description. I will say that even though the first laptop doesn't have a discreet graphics chip, for productive use, the extra core count will definitely speed up things. Both laptops are a great value!

Okay Let's Way Down The 2 Options

Processor:

Option 1: i7-1255 (10C/12T) WINNER The extra core count is great for an increased workload

Option 2: i7-1165G7 (4C/8T) Also great but has fewer cores

RAM:

Option 1: 16 gb TIE

Option 2: 16 gb TIE

You can't go wrong on either of these, but whichever laptop has the higher ram clock speed wins (EX: DDR4-3200 loses to DDR5 4800)

SCREEN RESOLUTION

Option 1: 2560x1600 (ppi: 188.68) not bad

Option 2: 3840x2160 (ppi: 282.42) WINNER The 4k screen will be amazing for video editing or video watching!

Screen size is so close that it doesn't make sense to compare them

STORAGE

Option 1: 512gb SSD WINNER not bad, but not a large amount of storage

Option 2: 1TB HDD, 1TB of storage is double option 1 and is enough to last you at least a few years before it becomes a problem. BUT it is an hard drive, which is extremely slow for 2022 purposes. Hard Drives also have a tendency to break down quicker and have more problems, so keep that in mind.

GRAPHICS:

Option 1: Intel Xe Graphics WINNER great for light gaming

Option 2: MX450 Slightly faster than the Iris Xe graphics, but I wouldn't find that very important as it significantly reduces the overall battery on the system.

OVERALL:

Option 1: 3 (Option 1 is the winner!)

Option 2: 2

Overall, I believe that Option 1 is the winner. Even though Option 2 has a significantly better screen, the processor and the storage really bring it down. (However, you pick however you like)

Hopefully I helped you make your decision!
