ASUS N53JQ vs ASUS N61JQ vs HP Envy

[wesy94607]

I'm looking for a new notebook for general gaming (Civ5), but not so much into FPS. Trying to stay in the $1000 budget. I found these two ASUS i7 notebooks at costco for the same price $999 and I can get a deal on HP Envy Beats for just a bit over $1000 (i5). Thoughts?
