I am looking to buy a laptop mainly for playing games.

The first one is the Acer AS5560G-7809

This laptop includes a A6-3420M APU with an additional GPU, the AMD 7670M.

And the second one is the Acer AS5755G

This laptop includes an Intel Core i5-2450 CPU with a GT 540M GPU.

I know that the 7670M performs about the same as the 540M, and that the i5 performs much better than the A6 APU. My choice would be the i5 laptop only if the A6 was not an APU that works in crossfire with the dedicated graphics card inside to bring superior GPU performance.

There is also a $150-$80 price difference between the two, the i5 laptop being the most expensive one.

The question is, what is the laptop that performs better in games?

Are there better alternative laptops for gaming for around the same price($500-$600)?
