You're evaluating two nitro 5S Intel chips at similar prices. To determine which is better, consider performance, features, and your specific needs.
The AMD model already features 8GB of RAM (Intel only has 4?) plus an NVMe SSD (Intel uses a standard HDD, 5400rpm). AMD is also roughly 10-20% quicker/more efficient in most tests. On the other hand, the 1650 model performs significantly better. If you're open to boosting RAM and adding an SSD, the Intel setup might be superior. Otherwise, the AMD version offers a more balanced performance. Can you upgrade the GPU on the AMD system? If yes, choose the AMD model and enhance the GPU.
Sure, it seems like a 7 3750h, 560X, 144Hz screen for about $650 might be quite a bargain in Belgium. It also raises some concerns about the Intel i5-9300h with a GTX 1650—only 4GB RAM seems reasonable, and a GTX 1650 wouldn't fit in a laptop, only the 1650 Mobile Max-Q would.
It varies based on your goals. I opted for the more affordable Ryzen 5 3550H with RX560x and a 512GB SSD. I regretted delaying the Ryzen 7 3750H with a GTX 1650, though it’s near twice the cost locally. Titles like FFXV gain more from Nvidia GPUs, but my setup remains solid. If you’re like me, I’d choose the GTX and lower the i5 voltage, unless the newest R7+GTX isn’t accessible.
for me, it doesn't make much sense having the Ryzen 7 3750H since it's almost identical to the Ryzen 5 3550H. Both have 4 cores and 8 threads, and the GTX1650 is the better pairing. However, I chose the Ryzen 7 3750H over the Ryzen 5 3550H to compare because they're similar in price. It's hard to decide now.
