Hello TPU, well I've recently started traveling a lot and I'm looking for gaming on the go, the thing is I'm a cheap bastard so no uber gaming laptop for me, I'm planing on spending 700$ or less(less being better), so I've found two prospecs both are exactly the same laptop gateways with 4 gigs, 500gb HDD, Wireless N same 1.3 mp camera now the difference is one has a 2.4ghz core i3 and the other has a AMD x3 n830 2.1ghz both with a HD5650 the intel laptop is about 120$ more expensive, I don't care about battery life, all I want is moderate performance in mass effect and dragon age, and some other less demanding games, how much of a difference will the amd laptop's performance drag compared to the i3 and is it worth the price premium for some casual trip gaming.
