which one is better for gaming?lemme konw if you need more info on any of these
 
Between those two laptops the VGA card will have more effect then the CPU & in that aspect, the ATI VGA chipset is faster then the Intel one.
 
I've never heard of a gaming laptop, I agree with CrossFire, but if that's what u want...I hope u'll enjoy

well, as much as I'm a gr8 AMD fan an' all, when it comes to mobile, I say intell (just past experience).
One problem, that V.card, like Didou said, won't hold up for scratch (intell GPU are plainly lame).
If these are ur only choices, I can only say, enjoy ur new AMD laptop, but u should look for an intell one with nice V.card on it.

hope u'll enjoy whatever choice u take.

Never heard of a gaming laptop? Check out the top of the line Acers, or the XPS from dell. They can perform just as well as a desktop....they will cost you a pretty penny though. The xpress 200 graphics will not play many of todays modern games, so out of those two, I would say none (for gaming)
