Hey guys. I am looking to capitalize on some upcoming Black Friday deals, and I am torn between two laptops. Neither of them can have upgraded RAM (or at least so says OfficeMax's pages for both of the models). I am looking to use the laptop for design with Adobe CC products, play hardware intensive games (like Battlefront 2), and hopefully record the gameplay if the hardware can take it.

I'm not too skilled though when it comes to knowing the larger differences between laptops. Here are the two I have in mind:
- 1.) https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c05811174
-2.) https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c05820533

Which one would best fit my needs?
Thank you all for your replies.

I wold not get either of those for games or working with design software. The screen resolution is low for design (you won't fit much on the screen) and neither of them have a video card for gaming.

For a $1,000 budget, this is good https://www.amazon.com/Dell-Inspiron-i5577-5328BLK-PUS-Gaming-Laptop/dp/B06XFC44CL?th=1

For the price, with a good size solid state drive, that would be tough to beat. This may also be good, smaller drive and slower CPU but faster video card and a bit cheaper https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=1TS-000A-021Z9
