with gpu, the i3 is ok for gaming, but a gpu is always better, if you take the gpu away regardless of cpu it will suffer. so get the i3+gpu.

An i3 with a discrete graphics card will be your best option.

I personally game on an i3 with a 660 and have no issues at all. If you let us know what kind of games you will be playing and the resolution you aim for, I can let you know my performance and recommend a GPU.

If you want a laptop capable of gaming you should definitely go for the Core i3 with a discrete GPU.The integrated graphics in the Core i5 won't deliver playable framerates in latest games,even at low settings.So you'd be better off with a discrete GPU.
