Hi

I am planning to buy an Acer laptop. A bit confused wile comparing E5-573 vs E5-432

 

E5-432 , RAM 4GB max 8 Gb, Screen 14in, Processor I3-5015U 2.1 Ghz Dual core , $ 400

E5-573 , RAM 8GB max 16 Gb, Screen 15.6 in, Processor N3700 1.6 Ghz Quad core , $480

 

Can any one comment on the processor comparison ?

Thanks

    I would go with Processor I3-5015U if you need a better processor since its 2x faster than the N3700.

    I had typo for the previous post. But my main concern is processor..

    A bit late to the party, but I just bought the E5-432.

     

    The main advantage of the 432 is its size : 14". I was looking specifically for something more portable : the 432 fits the bill very well, and it's also a lighter than et E5-573. Note that 14" laptop are typically more expensive than their equivalent specced 15" counterparts. The N3700 cpu is pretty good so far, when I replace the HDD with a SDD this laptop should really shine. Also note there is a dummy DVD tray on the 432, that can be replaced either by a DVD or SSD; I suppose it's the same for the E5-573.

     

    If a 15" laptop is better for you, then the E5-573 with the i3-5015u is MUCH more powerful, about twice as powerful in fact : https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare.php?cmp[]=2551&cmp[]=2513. That CPU is also more power hungry (15W vs 6W), expect shorter battery runtime.

     

    About Quad vs. Dual core : it probably won't make any difference as the i3-5015u is 2 physical + 2 logical = 4 logical cores total.
