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?
 
Solution
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 :na:

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