I recommend Toshiba Satellite S55D-A5366.

AMD Quad-Core A10-5745M Accelerated 2.1 GHz Processor
8 GB DIMM RAM
15.6-Inch Screen, AMD Radeon HD 8610G Graphics

The Radeon HD 8650g in the Lenovo G505s is more powerful than the Radeon HD 8610g.

Sure, the Toshiba comes with 8GB of RAM instead of just 6GB, but RAM is easy and cheap to upgrade. The processor isn't. 6GB of RAM is is fine for playing games.

Gentlemen, if I might make a suggestion?

For just under 600 (excluding shipping) you're getting an A10 processor and dedicated Radeon graphics (forgive me for not knowing the exact model, I'm no master of AMD technology) with 8GB of RAM and 1TB HDD. For performance, it seems it will outclass the competitions. Also, I like the aesthetics of rear cooling vents. Very... Cool (badum tsss!)
