Intel vs Amd

I might be in the market for a new laptop. I have enjoyed my MSI for several years. I’m not very knowledgeable as far as specs go but I’m just curious if someone can chime in because I’m seeing MSI with both hardware configurations

I basically just play WoW. No photo/music editing, don’t multi-box, no secret hacking, just WoW and sometimes a game called 7days to die. I loved how my MSI had zero bloat when I bought it. And I also very recently opted for a new 1TB Samsung evo970 M.2 ssd (it came with a 250gb and a 1tbHdd). Do most laptops use the m2 style so I could swap this one over to a newer one? Sry if this is super noob questions.
