out of these two:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Toshiba-Satellite-C70D-B-10U-17-3-Inch-Notebook/dp/B00LFL8IGQ

which one is better between the two laptops for gaming and for everyday use?
The Toshiba one has a processor count of 4 and processor speed of 1.8 GHz and a RAM size that is 4GB more than ASUS. The processor count for the ASUS laptop is 2 and the processor speed is 1.7GHz.
But the ASUS laptop has a processor type of Core-i5 and Toshiba's is Athlon 64 and from what people have said, Core-i5 is better than Athlon 64... but taking into account of the processor count, processor speed and RAM size of each laptop along with the processor type, which one would be better?
 
Solution
Both use an iGPU so you'll end up with most of your DRAM tied up by the iGPU and OS with the Asus, overall performance will prob be better on the Toshiba unless you upgrade the DRAM on the Asus, the Toshiba also has a bigger screen
