I need a very light and portable laptop (13.3" preferably) that can play the Sims 3 + a few expansions, as well as Skyrim (at least the old version). I found a few options - two with a dedicated graphics card and one with an integrated card. I thought the ones with the dedicated cards would be better, but when I look on game-debate.com to see how well they will run my games, the one with the integrated graphics scored the highest. I don't know much about computers, so could someone tell me which one they think is better? I keep hearing I need dedicated graphics, but they're nearly impossible to find in a small laptop...

Lenovo Ideapad 510s-14ISK (80TK002YMH)
Processor: Intel Core i7-6500U
RAM: 8GB
Graphics card: AMD Radeon R7 M460 (2 GB)

Asus Zenbook UX310UA-FC33T
Processor: Intel Core i7-7500U
RAM: 8GB
Graphics card: Intel HD Graphics 620

HP Pavilion 14-AL125ND
Processor: Intel Core i5-7200U
RAM: 8GB
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce 940M (2 GB)


Thanks!

I would go with the HP Pavilion. The CPU is Intel 7th gen and almost as good as the CPU in the Asus Laptop, but with dedicated graphics.
