So which one should i go for it ?
CPU Performance wise: i5-3210M>i5-4200U>i5-3317U
GPU Performance wise: HD 8750M>HD 8670M>HD8650M>HD 7670M
When buying a computer for gaming purposes, The performance of the video card is always more important than the CPUs, Keeping this mind, I suggest you go with the last one. Also, It’d probably be a good idea to add it an additional 4 gigs of RAM.
