helping friend deciding on laptop

both are from lenovo ideapad series with core i5 the main differences are that one has a 540 gpu and the other one is a 630
also the 630 equipped gpu only have 2gb instead of 4gb in the 540 version

the ram mention here is for the system not the gpu

price difference is rm100 more for the 630

so which one is the best option and my friend seriously want to play max payne 3 with no lag

Which model is it? What's your budget ?

Closest from Asus would be:
14"
Asus A43TK-VX024 , AMD A6-3420M + AMD HD7670M@RM1399, 2GB, 500GB(5400rpm), FreeDOS
Would the lappy be ok for everyday workload?? (Microsoft office,multitabbed internet browsing)

And lastly, isn't there any other APU powered laptop that fit my desc..?? T.T (I'm really interested in getting those piledriver powered APU laptop...)

Should be okay for normal usage.
Not much model for AMD APU...
