I am going to buy a lap top and i can't choose between two laptops
one has an Intel Core i7-3630QM but with an ATI Radeon HD 7670 2GB GPU
the other one has an Intel Core i7 4500U but has AMD Radeon HD 8850M GPU
other than that they have the same specs so what should i choose?? which one i better for gaming and 3D programs like 3Ds Max and Maya ?

I would go with second option as 4500U will give you better battery life and 8850m will give more gpu power.

If you're gaming, go for the better GPU - if your focus is more Maya, go for the CPU, as you will need it for rendering
