    I have 2 XPS system right now and having a hard time choosing between the two as I havent been able to catch up with the latest review. Please help me decide between these 2.

    Studio XPS 16
    Intel Core i5-540M Processor (2.53GHz, 3M cache)
    1 GB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5730
    15.6 inch High Definition+ (900p) W/LED Display and Camera

    or

    XPS 15
    Intel I7-740QM
    Nvidia GT-335M 2GB
    15.6 FHD (1080p) B+RGLED Display

    I mainly use the laptop for light gaming (WoW). I'll have to give the other one to my brother.

    Thanks for the help.
