Title says it all. Which one of these would be a better decision? The Lenovo one has a better GPU, but the Acer one has a better CPU.

I don't need a strong GPU. I'm just asking which one would be better at gaming. I'm not going to do hardcore gaming though.

They are pretty close in performance, but I would give a slight edge to the the Acer.

I believe the Acer would be better in terms of the GPU as well as the CPU.
