Which PC Should I Get? by Nobody: 9:20am On Feb 21, 2015
Hello, please I need help. I'm stuck with two options for my PC. I need a gaming laptop, and these are the options.
1. A 4th gen core i5
-- 500gb HDD
-- 8gb ram
-- And it uses a Nvidia GeForce 720M graphics card

While the other one
2. A 4th gen core i7
-- 1tb HDD
-- 6gb ram
and the graphics card is Intel HD 4400 graphics

Please I'm really confused on which to pick for gaming. . I really need advice, Thanks

oops i dint see it on the initial post before..

i would go for the second if i were you..

you dont need any more internal upgrades like the first one.

Intel HD 4400 can handle pretty much any game at any frame rate.

it can handle any game you can think of at medium settings but wont be able to handle to games at very settings.. but for gta IV it will handle it at the highest settings.

same goes for gt 720m.. some games might start lagging at 1920x1080

I told this young man the 2nd pc was equally efficient,he was just ranting about how the Nvidia beats the Intel counterpart on benchmark,those things don't count bro . Raw performance speaks for itself!. Even the Nvidia 720 will lag at 1080p, I can bet it won't play such games at 25fps

Since when did Intel start making DEDICATED video graphics card? Taught it was in built with the processor? Well I will go for what I know to be trusted and tested.
