Looks like you found Clevo's top 2 models.

The one with dual GPUs will unquestionably be better for gaming. The one with the i7 will be better in more CPU-heavy work applications (for example, HD video editing).

^Agreed. The 2nd GPU will make a larger difference than the i7 will. And I would shoot for a faster Quad than the 2.00ghz Q9000.
