Hi Everyone,

I would b extremely grateful to you if you could please advice me on which of these 2 models would be a better purchase.

I'm buying a new laptop after 5 years and I really don't know much about configurations to make up my mind.

I'll be using this notebook mostly for watching movies, listening to music, and gaming (Crysis 3/Tombraider/Dead Space 3 etc.)

I've narrowed two models which are within my budget and I hope you can help me make the right choice

The models are:

Asus k55VD
---------------
Intel Core i7 2.4Ghz (3630QM) 3rd Gen.
6GB DDR3
750 GB HDD 5400rpm
DVD/RW+DL
Wifi/BT/CR
15.6" LED
2 GB GeForce GT635 Graphics
DOS
1+2yr Service Warranty

Sony SVE E15128CX/S
----------------------------
Intel Core i7 2.2Ghz (3632QM) 3rd Gen.
8GB DDR3
1 TB HDD 5400 rpm
DVD/RW+DL
Wifi/BT/CR
15.5" LED
Intel HD Graphics 4000 (Shared VGA)
Win8 64Bit
1+2yr Service Warranty

Thanks everyone!

Wait a few more months to buy a laptop. I am in the same boat as you and Intel just announced the new Haswell Processors and they should be hitting laptops in a couple months if not sooner. I would wait, that is what I am doing. Unless you absolutely need a new one.
