Which computer should I get?

ok well both are built for gaming not just school work so .. no need for two Graphics Card if u use one monitor that is a wast of money for others tat read this it can help but not for what he is looking to use it for and if u are not tech savy i would not recommend a RAID set up.. but if i would have money for ether one ... i would get the M17 it has more but i would not have a RAID set up ..
