Ivy all the way. My reason for this would be the processing power will be way better with Ivy you can just add whatever video card you want skip on both integrated video. The integrated will be better on the trinity but you cant upgrade the processor speed... With ivy you can switch to better video card so go that rout.

Laptop Thently, Laptop :p

I would defiantly choose a Trinity based laptop.
The CPU will be plenty fast enough and the IGP will be noticeably faster for gaming.
AMD's driver support is also far above what Intel is capable of; quite an important point with gaming graphics.

As a quick comparison, Anandtech's Ivy Bridge Preview shows that Intel's HD 4000 IGP is still considerably slower than current Llano chips.
Indications are that Trinity should have significantly faster graphics than Llano currently offers...
