Hello, I'm choosing a new notebook, mostly for stuff for school and programming, but I want to play some games sometimes, so what is better for it in configuration with those CPUs?
exactly it is:

Lenovo IdeaPad G500 59-392676 with:
■ Pentium 2020m with AMD Radeon HD8570

Lenovo IdeaPad G700 59-392693 with:
■ Pentium 2020m with Geforce 720m (Ivy Brigge)

Lenovo IdeaPad B5400 B5400-00512 with:
■ Intel i3 4000m with intel HD graphics 4600 (Haswell)

I've read many articles so I know that dedicated GPU is better, but also Intel HD 4600 is pretty great and in benchmarks are those GPUs almost the same so I'm confused.
Thanks for help ;)

Yes, I think it'd be a wise decision to go with Lenovo IdeaPad B5400. GT720M and HD4600 are similar in performance (GT720M is slightly better though).

But, the i3's Hyper-Threading will make your laptop overall faster in tasks other than gaming.
