buy 2010AX instead of 2005AX.

if you want to go for one with Intel processor, check this HP Pavilion G6-2207TX. Even better Dell Inspiron 15R if you can spend the extra 1.5k

Overall Application Experience with Trinity (A8) will be PATHETIC as AMD CPUs are bound to LOW IPC Count / LOW Single Threaded Performance / High Latency CPU Cache.

Make Sure you only choose A8 Laptop - when you know your primary purpose is GAMING and you after comfortable with a laptop that emits a lot of HEAT (HP SKUs especially).

If you use Applications, such as MS Office extensively / Video Encoding --- then simply go with 3rd Gen i3/i5 with Graphics (prolly 630M) --- albeit this Configuration will cost you nearly 5K higher than your budget --- but then you can't beat INTEL with x86 COMPUTE power --- just compare i3/8 and A8 benchies at notebookcheck.net

not worth it. Nvidia GT 610 is slowest graphics processor you'll find. Go with the one i suggested according to you budget.

Go for this Inspiron15R SKU (as suggested ABOVE) --- you can't beat i3 IVY and 7670 Combination with DELL in this Price Range:
7670 is on PAR with Nvidia 630M
