I'm looking at two ASUS laptops with a few key differences. Option 1 (600$) has HDD, 8gb RAM, i5 processor, whereas option 2 (900) has SDD, i7 processor, and 12gb ram. I'm wondering whether these differences would account for any noticeable differences while, for example, running 6 tables across 4 different poker sites with HEM and firefox with various windows including youtube all running simultaneously or whether option 2 is just a better computer with betterness that is completely unnecessary. I also want to know if because of computer 2's better specs whether that makes it longer lasting.
Option 1:

Much thanks to anyone who can help out
