Hello
What's your usage ?
The first one does better in games;whereas the second one performs better in multi-threaded games/apps

It will be used for watching movies and playing games such as StarCraft 2, Bad Company 2, GTAIV and Mafia 2. How much better is the HD5650 over the 330M and is it worth sacraficing the i7 for?

Its around 20% faster than a 330M.
