    Both of those options are very weak for gaming. Does the d620 have the nvidia GPU? Even if it does, its a Quadro card, not GeForce...

    The d620 will be much more durable.

    Does the D620 have the Quadro GPU? If it does, avoid it as all laptops from the Napa/Santa Rosa platforms with Quadro/Geforce G84M/G86M will fail. The 1525 does offer DGPU but those are rare. Really depends on the specs.
