Im looking to invest in a new Laptop and im torn between two options, both laptops have similar specs, but one has a GTX460m graphic card, and the other has an HD 6770m.

here are the full specs


ASUS G53SW-XA1 Republic of Gamers

Intel i7-2630QM (2.0 GHz Quad-Core with Turbo Boost up to 2.9GHz)
8GB DDR3 1333MHz, 4 SODIMM Sockets, up to 16GB
500GB HDD (7200RPM); Super-Multi Optical Drive
15.6-Inch FULL HD (1920x1080) LED Display; Nvidia GTX 460M Graphics with 1.5GB GDDR5 VRAM
Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium



HP Pavilion dv6

i7-2630QM Processor 2.00GHz with Turbo Boost Technology up to 2.90GHz
Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium 64-bit
15.6" diagonal High-Definition HP BrightView LED Display (1366 x 768)
8GB DDR3
1TB (5400RPM) SATA with HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection


so apart from the hard disk speed (space doesnt matter), the only reason i cant make a decision is the graphic cards, i tried to benchmark the two but i didnt know what to look for exactly.

ps: i run the laptop for long hours, so if both cards perform on the same level id prefer the one the produces less heat


thank you
