To AMD or to Intel? This is the question.

Hey everyone,

I have been looking at these two laptops... Both of them seem really powerful and the one is about R500 (ZAR) more than the other... Which is best for Gaming with games like Dragon Age 1\2 Crysis 3 on pretty visuals not necessarily maxed out but decent fps ... and also some CPU intensive tasks like Programming and running a Virtual Machine with a Windows OS and Linux based OS...? Which is more bang for the buck and worth it?

ASUS N56JR Intel i5-4200H with GTX760M

OR
MSI GX60 3AE AMD A10-5750QM APU With Radeon HD 7970M

if there is a better option from this evetech site with an amount less than R13k (ZAR) I would be happy to consider the option...

Thanks in advance!!

I'd go the Asus, not a big fan of AMD (particularly in laptops)
