You can't do much with the second Laptop, the first Laptop can probably run some games since it has a Dedicated Graphics Card. Go with the first one, you're going to be sorry with an Intel Integrated Graphics card which sucks. But it depends on what you'll be doing, you should let us know what you're doing with the Laptop first of all.

Thanks for moving, I wouldn't buy a laptop with an amd processor just because I have something against them and they always fail me if you try using them in the long run.

There's nothing wrong with AMD processors in my opinion. Intel ones fail just as often. OP, go with the first laptop. If possible post your budget and we could probably find you a laptop that is better than both of the ones that you are debating between.
