Hi, I want to buy laptop for school, internet and also games, like Skyrim, Assassins Creed 3..., but I dont need high details. I know that laptop with i5 and geforce 635m is better, but is it much better than laptop with i3 and 630m? Is there big difference?
 
for laptop every little bit help, since it is a lot harder to upgrade it.
 
It will be better and probably noticeably so. As Rgd said, you want to get the best laptop you can as to upgrade you will pretty much have to buy a new one.
