Looking to buy a new laptop. I want to use it for gaming. The games I will be playing are things like : Age of Empires 3, Heroes of Newerth, World of Warcraft, RIFT, Counter Strike Source, Left For Dead 2 etc.

My Budget is $1300 (Australian dollors)

Which one is better?

HP Pavilion Specs
Intel Core i5-450M (2.4GHz) processor
4 GB DDR3 (2 x 2048 MB)
ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 5650 Graphics (switchable) with 1 GB dedicated
Price : $999 (AU $)

Toshiba A660
Intel Core i5 2.4GHz/2.66Ghz Turbo
4GB DDR3 (2GB + 2GB) (1066MHz) expandable to 8GB
NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M (2041MB Total: 1GB discrete memory + 1017MB shared memory)
Price : $1200 (AU $)

If you find or know of any laptops within my budget that are better than these too please recommend them. Thank you!
 
Both daisymtc links are better than the two you listed. The 2nd one is the better of the two. And seems to cost less than his 1st. You will have to wait about 2 months to get in hands if you get the 2nd one Asus suspending all shipping of that model because of the Cougar chipset issue. If you can wait I would recommend getting that 2nd Ass listed.

The Clevo equivalent is the W150HM looks like about $150 more, link. But has 8GB RAM it will have the same delay in shipping for the same reason. It also has Optimus which should help battery life I do not see listed on the Asus.
