Hi Tomshardware forum, newbie here. I'm looking for a new laptop when I start university in September and am stuck between these two.

and

However, I can't say I'm experienced enough on laptops to make an informed decision on this matter. I figured to come onto this site since I was advised by a friend of these forums and that someone may be able to help me.

If anyone has the time, can you say which of the 2 has the better specs? Not necessarily more value, since money's not an issue- just specs

Thanks in advance! Much appreciated.

Also, mods if this isn't in the right section could you move it; I'm not familiar enough with the site yet

Edit: Yeah I think this should have belonged in the Laptops & Notebooks section, sorry about that
