which one is more powerful
I don't think you'd notice much differerence in power, power depends mostly on how big your chamber is, how good your valve flow is and how much pressure you're using.

It depends on what you want to achieve.

Cloud if it's your first. Vortex if you like a challenge. BTW you could have had this question answered but reading a topic with the same name as this.

And how long the barrel is, how tight the ammo fits in the barrel, the flow through your air hose, and probably a several other things.

I agree, the performance won't really change much between a vortex and a cloud if everything else is the same.
