Brother or sister, RAM has already pass the age where faster isnt gonna get you better gaming performances. DDR3 and DDR4 differs in clockrate which you are not going to see much difference when you game.

I see that you did your research which i will give kudos to you.

Using the Acer to play high settings will pretty much depends on what game. Older game sure, newer games maybe because 950M is an entry level card (for me) while 960M is entry level gaming card (if it makes sense. sweat.gif )

Bottomline is this

Better spec is Dell with one of the best after sale services and good cooling and best self maintenance laptop in the market.

This is my view the Acer i presume the newer model doesnt seem to be able to handle the heat very well because it is damn thin (it might throttle the speed thus negatively affect gaming experience) and its after sale services is bad compared to Dell.

If you have time, type in the model of the laptop and add in notebookcheck and see for yourself. Example dell 7559 notebookcheck and nitro notebookcheck to see.

what they say 960>950 in gaming so dell it is
as for cpu lots of ppl get mixed up with all those ending with U, HQ etc
if you wana see the CPU performance, those 2 are in different level..
refer here for U, find the proc model
https://www.cpubenchmark.net/mid_range_cpus.html
refer here for HQ, find the proc model and compare the 2 marks
https://www.cpubenchmark.net/high_end_cpus.html

the U is in Mid range, while HQ is in high range
the HQ score is almost 1.45 x better than the U so u go and decide smile.gif

Note : if battery life is very important to you, U is the way to go tho, ultra low voltage but lower performance. those are the diff
as for esthetics, search in youtube for the models then you can see how good looking and feel they are..

Dell + 1

seems like your are into a little bit of gaming because you are leaning towards the 950m and 960
well there alone is your answer because 950 is sort of an entry level gaming card

plus HP and Delll are designed to game as well as fry an egg on it
thats how hot they get during gaming

ive used the nitro. it does get a little hot aswell but mainly due to its ultrabook design and constraints

base on the spec u list, dell is way better in CPU, GPU, RAM...

Which ever model u choose, upgrade to SSD will suddenly make ur notebook 100% faster lol

be careful, some brand might void warranty... see Dell allows u to change HD in their configurator

Agreed on that part, and to further reinforce the point Dell has been pretty nice with self repaired machines (there are even manuals supplied by them on how to service your machine).

It's also worth mentioning that the Acer has a dual core, quad threaded chip (similar to desktop i3s), whereas the Dell has a quad core, quad threaded chip (similar to desktop i5s). icon_idea.gif

Not to mention that the 6200U in the Acer is a low voltage chip which trades off performance for longer battery life, unlike the Dell which has a standard, performance-oriented chip. icon_idea.gif

The CPU difference alone are already worth it. icon_idea.gif
