For photo edition and video encoding which one?
-same i7-7700HQ
-same 16gb unremovable ram Apple uses proprietary LPDDR3 and Asus uses DDR4, no idea which one is better
-both 256gb SSD
-Asus has 120hz display
-Mac has 10+ hour battery life
-Asus has a desktop 1080
-Mac has a Radeon 555
Asus = $2700
Mac = $2250
That's a bit of a difference, the major difference is one uses Windows 10 and one uses OSX. What would you buy /g/?
I'd buy the Mac. I value build quality over most other things, though.
>>61232655
True but from what I've watch on youtube the Asus build quality for this specific laptop anyways is up there with Apple.

Go with the Asus if you can afford it. The dedicated graphics in the Mac suck. It depends on what sort of stuff you're doing with the video encoding. Ignore the 120hz display if you don't game. Dunno about the RAM. Both are good computers. You can go with a cheaper Windows laptop and get something similar to the Macbook, that 1080 is probably overkill if you don't game.

muh plastic thinkpad build quality amirite?
Come back when Lenoshit makes their laptops in either Magnesium or Aluminium.
>>61232632
Waitâ„¢ for Raven Ridge powered laptops. Judging by Ryzen's performance and efficiency , RR will be superior on laptops for video encoding and it will not burn your balls from the heat.

>same i7-7700HQ
lmao
>>61232632
I've been looking at the same two laptops. The Asus has a gtx 1080 but the MacBook is still a MacBook.
ASUS would easily win my vote if it had 2k or 4k screen. The big fat REPUBLIC OF GAMERS text on the bezel also bothers me.
If I pick that I would be covering it up with some sort of skin or sticker. But for $2500 I really shouldn't need to do that.

Plastic cracks but at least it doesn't conduct heat like a boilerplate.
>>61232632
DDR4 > DDR3. 120hz isnt a necessity but it makes general computing look a lot smoother. Macbooks are known to throttle. The 1080 is probably overkill. Also you can probably install macOS on the Asus one. Id buy the Asus.
>>61232632
>-Asus one looks embarrassing
Honestly a deal breaker for me. I'd never shell out that much money for a tasteless piece of plastic branded for autistic gamer kiddies.

Asus promises no throttling, and a superior mechanical laptop keyboard.

Ryzen laptops are hot as shit compared to Kabylakes. I honestly don't want to start a fire when I am traveling.

I didnt say the Asus would throttle.
>>61232632
>-same i7-7700HQ
The Asus will cost 20% more, but will encode and perform tasks 100% faster. Apple is a joke.

>>61232632
That 1080 is gonna destroy everything you throw at it. That's good enough reason to consider Asus.

It's a rog, so it's for gaymer, so 120Hz is a big selling point to the audience Asus is targetting
>>61234832
Lol
Why are we still debating on this subject ? MacBooks are for fine gentlemen with good taste while the pimped up rainbow colored gayming pieces of shit that come with Microsoft Malware 10 are for the neckbearded peasants.
It's one thing to see the MacBooks in photos and videos and another to play with them with your dirty ass fingers, dumbass hillbillies that shit behind the house! Everything is of high quality when it comes to the Macs and MacOS
>>61232632
For video editing, Mac. Final Cut, despite all of its misgivings, crunches 4K video in no time at all without a performance hit in the actual NLE.
