Laptop 2 is very good.

its Processor Quad Core is 16% Faster then ci5 2450M.

and its having more ram and Latest Graphic Chip. and some other good technologies too.

and Hp is very good brand. using it. So don't wait and go for 2. its very good for gaming.

im really tempted by the HP, but can it run games like diablo 3, guild wars 2, borderlands 2, metro 2033, skyrim?
im not expecting to run them all high, but at least low but smooth without lagg

o yeah also the Acer video card isnt better than the HP video card?

Yeah Acer's Gpu is 24% faster then Hp..

Choice is yours. Good Processor, More Ram, Blue Ray, More Storage..

Or Just More Gpu. :)

but i think if you want just gaming like me. and don't care about all these things then definately you'd go with acer. because you can upgrade Ram, Storage Etc but never update a graphic card of a laptop. so still its up to you what you want :)

And Ofcourse Acer will play games more nicely then Hp. because its Processor and 4Gb Ram is enough to do that.

It'll play @Medium to high

i'd go with the hp.
firstly it looks better on paper apart from the GPU which isnt that far off the gt630m really

and secondly HP are a damn fine company. good build quality, good look, good spec.
in my opinion it's a better investment and far less likely to die in the first couple of years.
