Lenovo G50 vs. HP 15

[Ares69]

Hey! I want to buy a notebook for low-graphic gaming ( example: LoL at minimum graphics).

I've been looking in some sites from my country and here my choices:

HP 15: AMD Quad-Core A6-6310 APU (2MB L2 cache) - Radeon R4 (2GB) - 4 GB DDR3 $497

Lenovo G50: Intel® Core™ i3-4030U 1.90 GHz (3 MB L3 cache) - Intel HD 4400 (2 GB) - 4 GB DDR3 $567

What do you think? Which shall I choose?

Assuming a program uses all 4 cores in the A6-6310 APU, it will still be slightly slower than the Core i3-4030u CPU.

The Radeon R4 integrated graphics core is slightly slower than an Intel HD 4000 graphics core which means the Intel HD 4400 is more powerful; by roughly 20%.

Thank you so much! I'm picking this HP anyway just noticed there's no stock for this Lenovo

Do you think I'll be able to run (at low graphics) normal games? Such as LoL or GTA V?

GTA 5 is "playable", but it won't look pretty...
