Would there be a better option for Work laptop? No gaming at all. I'd like a nice screen and SSD for speed. I'm coming from a 2011 macbook pro lol maybe a 2nd gen i7?

From what I read one version is a lower wattage for that reason. Glad you pointed out the weight difference.

They probably won't tell you.
I believe the lower performance chip was to hit a much lower wattage (10W?) so that it can be used in those super thin 13-14" 3-3.5 pound ultrabooks. The higher...

Yes for sure. the CPU is huge upgrade, dual vs Quad. and if you do any gaming or video editing then the GPU is great. for $50 this is a no brainer.

I have the older version of this with GT940M. I can play couple years old games on it and Fortnite on low settings. This should be better because it has Quad core CPU now.

So...I bought an Acer A515-51 2 days ago from Frys for $500. Has 7th Gen i5, onboard video, no SSD (has 1 TB HDD). Worth it to return that to Frys and buy this?

If it's the same TN display they used on the Walmart Aspire 5 deal, it isn't that great. The resolution is nice, but the color and viewing angles aren't very good.
