Hey guys thinking about buying an Alienware 14 laptop that has Win7 home and a NVIDA GeForce 700m series and I was wondering if I should get a intel core i5 or i7
Witch one is better for gaming/skyrim

The i5 is more than adequate for gaming. The i7 is overkill unless you're planning to use the machine to do a lot of video editing or rendering or other tasks that can take advantage of the i7's hyperthreading capability.
