Please help me decide guys, really stuck here

Hi,

Briefly I'm looking for a laptop for my wife that will run games ok on it. I had it narrowed down to a Lenovo Z500 as I saw some good videos on Youtube and it seemed ok http/www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/laptops-netbooks/laptops/laptops/lenovo-ideapad-z500-15-6-laptop-dark-chocolate-19430682-pdt.html

BUT I just saw this http/www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/laptops-netbooks/laptops/laptops/acer-aspire-v3-571-15-6-laptop-19414902-pdt.html which is an i7 with more RAM and I assume a better machine? Please can you help me decide, I absolutely cannot spend more than this.

I really appreciate your guidance.

I'd personally go for the Lenovo, I like their build quality and it features dedicated graphics. Granted, with lower memory and a "lower tiered" CPU.

If she's really going to use it for games, Lenovo all the way.
