Assuming both are stock: i5-3210M wins hands down Still, do take note that graphic card is more important in determining gaming performance

I'd rather bargain this one until its RM1.8k 14" Toshiba Satellite L840-1024X, i3-2370M + AMD HD7670M@RM1899[2.12kg], 2GB, 640GB, W7HP |

Thanks Although you won't see much difference for normal usage, the i3-2370M is better http://www.dell.com/my/p/inspiron-15-3520/...en&s=dhs&~ck=mn And yes you can install W7 on it~ |
