Shame OcUK dont have a £500 laptop, the intergrated graphics will be fine though for those games.

Ok, so which one of these 2 should we grab?

Laptop Number 1

Laptop Number 2

They look to be similar, the cheaper one has 1Gb more RAM and op paper, a faster CPU, not sure about the graphics though.

The MSI has a newer gen CPU.
If you look around you can get the i3 with more RAM and bigger HDD for less than the MSI one.
