Buying Two Laptops, Unsure Which To Get

Help

I’ve had my Acer Nitro V for around 5 years give or take. It was a great laptop, but being the first one I owned I didn’t take super great care of it and cleaned it far too late. Regardless of my care for my now deceased laptop, I intend on getting a new one for both myself and one for my girlfriend.

The games both of us really want to play aren’t super intensive or require a lot of power to run. I originally got wanted a laptop in the first place to play Java Minecraft. I then ended up getting into Peak, R.E.P.O. and such too. My girlfriend and I are mainly Xbox players and we intend on staying that way, but there are obviously games that we both want to play that aren’t available on Xbox.

As for budget, I’m not looking to spend more than 1,200$ per laptop, but that still leaves me unsure of which Acer Nitro to get. I know I want another one but there’s multiple options and I’m not computer savvy enough to understand which one is the ‘best’ for what both me and my girlfriend are looking for in a gaming laptop.

This is the laptop I was looking at, but I’d still love some opinions from those of you who are more in the know about these laptops. Thanks in advance!
