If I'm not mistaken. Only if you do 3D rendering then GPU is more important but if you are drawing and stuff it uses more CPU and RAM (Correct me if i'm wrong). Try checking the garage sale section, see whether people still carry the i7 version.

Yup, Envy line not good for gaming as the thermal management is bad. I'm using Envy TS 15.

Why qm better 15 inches? Even after sold it, buyer complained I sold the dusty inside notebook coz of overheat. Even i5 desktop not so fast compared with core duo.

I always turn it on 24*7 because I am lazy to wait the start up mode. Just let my laptop on sleep mode. Amd? Amd is good and fast but don't know why my laptop with amd cannot last more than 3 years. Always have problem on keyboard. My fujitsu and acer keyboard after using amd processor not work for some keys. In the end must sell cheap.

My fujitsu and acer keyboard after using amd processor not work for some keys. In the end must sell cheap. I game on it 5-8 hours most of the time.  , AMD proc compare with the same performance of its counterpart Intel will be more hotter because of the size of the transistor.
