    Hi, I'm a college student looking to invest in my first laptop computer. Recently the HP in my country is having a promotion for back to school laptop.

    HP Pavilion14 Notebook PC
    14-n012AX (Pearl White)
    It's RM1899 (Around USD600) and also with a Free HP Deskjet 1050 All-in-One Printer* plus 1 PC game**.
    (Devil May Cry,Far Cry 3 - Blood Dragon or SIMCITY)

    To me, this seems like a no-brainer deal.
    But there's a few question buggering me.

    There's another version with I5-4200u with GT740M costs around RM2099 (Approx. USD666) but no free printer or game.

    1)What will be the performance hit if i go with the amd version instead of intel?
    (I play Dota2 and Football manager. Computer Engineering.)

    2)How is the 1366x768 screen in the HP compare to say Dell Inspiron?

    3)How easy is it to access the ram, hdd and fan in this hp laptop?

    4)How long can the laptop's battery last for wifi surfing ?

    Sorry for the long post. Thanks for bearing with me.
    And I truly appreciate any help and suggestions from all of you. Thank you.


    p.s. I'm from Malaysia.
