    If the best graphics card to choose from is a HD 7670M, you can't be that serious about gaming. ;)

    The most expensive laptop in your selection is the 17.3" Tosh with a Core i5-3210M and Radeon HD 7670M for €854.

    At PC Specialist you'll get the 17.3" Optimus IV in the following configuration for £689/€857:

    Incl. OS installation disc and 3 yr warranty. Also has a full HD 1920x1080p display rather than 1600x900

    Compare the performance of the two graphics cards and think again:

    The HD 7670M an OK card but nothing to write home about. It will play demanding games at low/medium detail settings but it ain't "serious gaming". ;)
