Core i3-3217U 1.8GHz Game Requirement Analysis

Ivy Bridge is the codename for Intel's 22 nm die shrink of the Sandy Bridge microarchitecture based on tri-gate ("3D") transistors. Ivy Bridge processors will be backwards-compatible with the Sandy Bridge platform, but might require a firmware update (vendor specific). Intel has released new 7-series Panther Point chipsets with integrated USB 3.0 to complement Ivy Bridge.Intel announced that volume production of Ivy Bridge chips began in the third quarter of 2011. Quad-core and dual-core-mobile models launched on April 29, 2012 and May 31, 2012 respectively. Meanwhile, Core i3 desktop processors are said to arrive in the third quarter of 2012.

I think the first one, becuase the GPUs perform almost the same depends what game or application is used, but the i5 performs much beter than the i3.

Don't underestimate this processor… A laptop with this GPU paired with a Radeon HD 7670M or even a 7570M can handle Crysis 2 on high settings though may be not max…
