Hello, as the title, I really need help i choosing between these two. I am an engineering student and I use laptop for the usual programming and designing software and on the semester break I usually do light gaming. So as for the Asus I like the fact it has a full HD screen and f or the Vostro I like it because it has a backlit keyboard . I am actually leaning towards the Vostro for its spec, but the only thing keeping me off it is the fact that it does not have a FHD screen and I read some review and they said that the screen seems washed out, most probably bcs it uses a TN panel. So can anyone help me choose? Or is there any other suggestions? I prefer laptop that has FHD screen, backlit keyboard, don't need SSD as I prefer large storage since I don
t like carryinh my hard disk around , must be 14' as well as portable ( since I bring laptop to class everyday) and long battery life. My budget is around 2.5-3.5k. THanks

Here's the spec ,

i) Dell Vostro V5459-50814G-W10 2980 Intel Core i7-6500U 8GB 1TB NVD GTX930M 4GB

ii) Asus K401U-QFR064T 2310 Intel Core i5-6200U 4GB D4 1TB NVD GT940M 2GB

U sure both models same dimensions and slim ?

im not sure, what kind of qs u asking me.. talking about dimension... yes. laptop is complex dimension. have real part x with an imaginary part y, where x and y are real numbers measurement

wrong again

Size- height x width x depth (in mm)

learn to understand the word context before replying me. i have no time to explain the same thing or teaching english in this mobile computing forum.

do understand the meaning of "CAN CONSIDER". not understand. google translate.

Totally wrong . Want show off form six math please a t least learn it correctly . You say y is imaginary then say it is real number really lol .

No one use imaginary number in real life cause dimension is build from 3 real number and imaginary number is just imaginary ?

want to teach people english please at least improve it yourself



From your sentense "you cant get 3k with 1080" It mean "wont reach 3k budget with 1080 card" obviously it is wrong . You easily reach 3k with 1080 card .
If you want to say "easily reach 3k budget " then you should type " you cant get 1080(laptop) with 3k(budget) " not the other way around .
