Need help! Which of these are a better gaming laptop for me?

I am in medical sales and had been looking for a good gaming laptop to take on the road with me. I recently purchased an Asus from Newegg (currently on its way) see here

I chose it because of the graphics card and the low price. After doing some digging I found a Lenovo at Fry's see here

The one from newegg will cost me $750 total. The Fry's one is 50 bucks more then another 50 for tax. Lenovo seems to weigh a little less and also be a bit thinner. I want to play SC2 and BBC2 among other FPS and RTS's. What would you go with on this? I have time to not accept the package which would mean I wouldn't have to pay for the return shipping on the Asus if I want to go with the Lenovo. Is the Lenovo worth 100 bucks more?

FYI any other deals that someone has seen that are better than these please let me know
 
I'd keep the Asus. Not worth paying to return.

To be honest the 5730 is a pretty weak card for notebooks. It will be your bottleneck in Both of those setups.
 
Actually total cost would be $850 total for the lenovo. Asus is $750 total. No shipping cost on either. I am also hearing i should wait a few weeks (i can return the ASUS no charge by not accepting the delivery. Newegg told me to do that if I wanted to go that route) because newer procs are coming out. I don't want a computer that runs only 1.5 hours like i have heard the lenovo does. the 5730 is weak for laptops? My main gaming rig is my desktop, this will be for boring nights at the hotel.
