Selection between two laptops for casual gaming [closed]
- by Prabhpreet
I have selected two laptops that meet my budget.
Here are the differences:
Laptop #1:
4GB Ram, Intel Core i5 2450M 2nd Gen processor w/ 2.5 Ghz clockspeed
NVIDIA GeForce GT 520MX DDR3 1 GB Dedicated Graphics
750 GB SATA II Hard disk
USB 2.0 Ports
6 hrs battery life
Laptop #2:
4 GB Ram, Intel Core i5 3210M 3rd Gen processor w/ 2.5 Ghz clockspeed
Integrated Intel HD Graphics 4000
500 GB SATA Hard disk
USB 3.0 Ports
3 hrs battery life (This concerns me)
First and foremost, does dedicated graphics matter for a casual gamer like me? Secondly, does the generation of the processors make a difference despite the same clockspeed. Thirdly, do usb 3.0 ports make a difference? And lastly, which laptop is more future proof?
Please help me out. Thanks!
