As always, everything is based purely on personal preference. If you are going for more of a gaming approach I would recommend the Asus N5 over the Ideapad, yet if you are looking to play any sort of graphic demanding game, you should look into this laptop. It has much better specifications than the two laptops you have listed, supplying you with the much faster 128gb ssd to run your games off of as well.

Hope I was of help.

y510p will be significantly more powerful (generally around a 770m when SLI is working well). That said, a 760m isn't that much of a difference from a 755m because of the massive clock speed difference and the 128 bit bus both share (the 760m actually has less bandwidth than a 755m).

Just be aware than the y510p does not have amazing battery life.
 
Personally, I tend to stay away from Crossfire / SLI on both desktops and in laptops. Generally speaking, games must take advantage of that type of technology for the best performance. If you play a game that cannot use two graphic cards, then the performance will be limited to just that of a single graphics card.

Between GT 750m SLI and a GT 760m, I would choose the GT 760m.
