Which of these is better? They look almost identical!

    Hey

    I'm looking to pick up one of these two. Reading through the spec, the processor speed appears to be better on the cheaper one. But the more expensive one has the newer pentium processor.

    All I'll use it for is browsing the web, downloading, and watching videos. All that's really important to me is a decent display and most importantly that it's fast.

    Cheaper one: http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/2487779/Trail/searchtext%3ELENOVO.htm

    CPU, Memory and Operating System:
    Intel Pentium N3530 quad core processor.
    2.58GHz processor speed.
    4GB RAM.
    500GB SATA hard drive.
    Microsoft Windows 8.


    Slightly pricier one:

    CPU, Memory and Operating System:
    Intel Pentium N3540 quad core processor.
    2.16GHz processor speed.
    4GB RAM.
    500GB SATA hard drive.
    Microsoft Windows 8.1.

    Thoughts? :)

    Thanks

    Shocking prices for such poor laptops. They'd be good value at 300 maybe, but 550 is taking the piss altogether. If you look on Amazon you can get the same spec's for just over 300 including delivery.
