i7 7700hq or 6700hq

[Wieck]

Hey guys,
I'm looking for a laptop that can do moderate video editing, hardly any 4k videos. Is there a big difference between the 6700hq and 7700hq? I was planning to buy the razer blade but its still using the 6th gen processor.

performance wise there isn't really any difference but for laptops the Intel graphics on the 7th generation CPU's like the 7700hq is able to do 4K video. seeing how you're looking at getting a gaming laptop it'll probably have an NVIDIA GPU though

Yep, also you won't need a strong GPU, just the CPU will be fine.
This is a refurb, but $200 cheaper than it would be normally.
