When you're talking about gpu's that slow, more vRAM won't make a difference. That being said, the amount of gaming you will do on either will be minimal. I would go with the Asus, because the i3 (in most cases) is a better processor (though in day to day tasks the difference between the AMD and Intel will be negligible.) Not to mention HP has a bad quality track record as of late. But if you didn't notice, the Asus does NOT have Windows 7 on it.
