In my opinion, it matters of what choice of performance you have for the processor, AMD or Intel. I'd personally go with the Lenovo G505, considering that it packs a quad core processor than the dual core i5. Intel tends to be more superior in performance, but that i5 processor in the HP laptop (Disregard the third laptop with an i3 processor) is an ultra low wattage one, and it competes in the same range as that of the AMD processor. So hey, why not go with the one that has two additional cores. Therefore, the lenovo G505 laptop.

We cannot really choose as we have no idea what you're planning on doing with the laptop. If it's just general use, I'd get a touchscreen laptop personally. At least you can have fun with games on Windows 8.

Thanks for the reply

I agree with the lenovo G505, Its only the colour and the way if looks that puts me off :/

HP's are extremely reliable and have a great record so a Pavilion will be a great buy
