The i5-480 and & GT 420M will still make a pretty good combination. It won't be as fast as the quad and stronger video card. But it will finish any job you want to take on.

I'd say it's a fair trade off to get in under your budget limit going with the the 5-480 and & GT 420M.
Yes, if your video editing program is CUDA enabled.
Chose the Nvidia GPU for CUDA enabled video editing programs. Either one will be a great video editing laptop.

For most everything else (like gaming) the Mobility HD 5730 and GT 435M are close enough in performance to make no difference.
