I bought an HP computer at Best Buy but I wonder if I should return it for another one?

I bought for $430 a 15inch HP AMD A8 , 650GB HDD laptop.


I noticed that there is another HP available for about $350, Intel950 processor, 17inch. 500 HDD: Link Removed


I like 17 inch and I think Intel 950 is probably fast enough. What do you think?
Does A8 make internet browsing faster?


And then I found something for $500 that seems to be much better:Link Removed
Regular price is $700, it is $200 less than that now.


But the $500 one is not available in stores. I got my current HP from having my Toshiba junked out. Do you think I can get the one online while returning the one I got?

Fast enough for what ?? Certainly not for any serious gaming.

I would first return the one you have before you buy a new one. That way you don't get stuck with two. I think Best Buy has a 14 day return policy.

They actually have 30 day return policy. Yeah I think I probably should return this one first and then with the store credits I should buy the i5 one? Also do you think I should get the Black Tie Warranty ?

Is A8 good enough for serious gaming? I'm not familiar with gaming on computers, It's been a while since I played some games (I used Nintendo 64 heavily and a little bit of Game Cube too). Could you recommend some games, especially something that is enjoyable with children in elementary school?

Just saw that they have an extended return period for the holiday season. Link Removed
