I'm in the process of shopping for a notebook/laptop computer to replace my bulky desktop. Now I've been trying to distinguish the pros and cons with getting a dedicated or an integrated graphics card; I do play some games in my spare time so this does act as a contributing factor for me. Now I'm aware that integrated graphics cards leech the system memory and dedicated graphics cards have it's own memory. BUT let's say you had a laptop with 8 GB of ram with an integrated graphics card, and you had a laptop with 4 GB of ram with a 1GB dedicated graphics card; which one would run games more smoothly? Any other advice would be welcome... thanks!

the integrated will be much slower no matter how much ram there is in the system. the ram is just like fuel tank in a car and the gpu chip is the engine, you cant make a 1.1L yaris go any faster with extra fuel in the back...
