I'm not crazy about either unit, but I'd give the nod to the Peachtree... By those choices, it sounds like you are shopping at Menards. You might consider expanding your search.

In wood or fiberglass, the usual suspects of Marvin, Pella, and Andersen have nice units. In vinyl, I like HiMark/Okna and Suunrise.

Those two would probably be considered near equivalents.

Architect is probably the better of those two in my opinion.
