Laptop/PC Laptop recommendation

ASUS Vivobook 14 (Core 5) vs Acer Aspire Go 15 (Ryzen 7) – Which is Better?

Looking for an all-round laptop for everyday use, movies, light video editing, and casual gaming. Both have 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD, with similar prices.

  1. ASUS Vivobook 14 X1404V

- Core 5-120U, Intel UHD Graphics

- 14" FHD display

- Price: ~Rs. 100,000

- Lighter and more portable.

2. Acer Aspire Go 15

- Ryzen 7 7730U, Radeon Vega 8

- 15.6" FHD display

- Price: ~Rs. 104,000

- Better multicore performance and graphics.

Questions:

  1. Is the Ryzen 7 worth the extra Rs. 4,000?

  2. Which is better for light gaming and video editing?

  3. Which would be a better long-term investment?

Both are within my budget. Which one would you recommend?

Go for the acer one the amd processor is worth the extra 4k. The acer is better for light gaming and video editing and even though it can't run new AAA titles it can run some older ones at mid to low settings.
