Going to pre-order one or the other tomorrow. No gaming, watching x265 10bit movies, general browsing and work tasks through Fedora. It hurts losing the 61 but how much of a difference is the $320? (Already have a 990 Pro waiting.)

    I think the only reason to get the 7840U is because you have the money and are happy to invest it in a little bit of performance and comfort. The difference in battery life is probably not that much and for the price difference you could get one or two 99Wh power banks (or buy the larger battery separately) instead.
