i3/i5/i7 3XXXM is 3rd generation Ivy Bridge mobile CPU (2012)
Ivy > Sandy
If you don't like Windows 8 , you can uninstall it
_The 2nd one is a multi-media laptop with a weakest GPU + high price + i7 -> Run hot and maybe overheat
_The 1st one has a weaker CPU + high price , good cooling though its cooling design is no match with gaming laptop cooling
i7 3610QM >= i7 3632QM (the difference in speed is very small , not noticable)
i7 3632QM > i5 3210M > i5 2450M
Nvidia GT 640M > Nvidia GT 635M > AMD 6750M > Nvidia GT 630M
I found this sager gaming laptop
