The video will not be enough. Best to look at an Alienware. After Dell purchased Alienware, they downgraded the available options for graphics on their normal laptops: Poorer graphics and lower resolution screens.

There are site that compare graphics processors for speed. Google for more info. Here is a site describing the 5470 in great detail.
