I am looking at a new laptop. My max price is $600. I have found 2 that seem good, but was wondering if one is definitely better than the other. I would be playing the Sims 2 or 3 on it, but that is about the extent of my gaming. Otherwise I watch a lot of videos online.

From what I am gathering, it seems like the HP would have better graphics but the Asus has a faster processor? But would this really be a huge concern when I only play the Sims? Or would it function just as well on the Asus? And if it would function just as well on the Asus, should I get the Asus because it would be faster? Any help welcome. Both laptops are $600 and seem very comparable they just have different processors and the Asus' just has UMA graphics I think it means it doesn't have a graphics card attached.
