AMD A8-4500M VS i5-3210M

Hello, I have been quite puzzled on which laptop I should buy. I want to manage to play games like Football Manager, Fifa and Counter strike but I also want to use applications. I have heard good things and bad things about the two so I have linked the two laptops I have in mind and I would be really thankful if you could help me out. Just to mention I do own a high end desktop PC for gaming but wanted a decent laptop for travel, as I travel a lot.

th I5 is the stronger processor and the a8 has the slightly better GPU. If you really need the cpu go for the i5 but really gaming wise they will trade 'wins' depending on the game.

What would you go for?

I'd also be interested in anyone's opinions - been weighing these two laptops up myself

Many thanks
