The operating system that will be poweing the pc is  Windows 10
With the new Creators update lined up for win 10
If im in your shoes who is much fond on Multimedia data i would go with the maximum Storage with more Processing capacity
So since you have made a mindset with these two models go with AMD A12-9700P

Hope this helped.
