So I have a choice of 2 already owned LAPTOPS of which only bringing 1 of them with me on the trip.

The specs for the newer laptop the ASUS X401A lacks info on the GPU and it looks like the CPU might actually be an APU as seen here:

Here is the laptop I bought for like $279 about a year ago.

I am trying to figure out if this newer Celeron M1000 based laptop would be better for games than the 2009 model Toshiba Athlon II M300 2.0Ghz Dual-Core no L3 Cache that has its own dedicated GPU Mobile Radeon HD4200, but I cant seem to find any GPU benchmark data for the Intel HD Graphics for the Celeron M1000 1.8Ghz with 2MB L3 Cache Dual-Core

Currently I have Linux Mint 17.1 on this laptop and if this is the better choice for games, i would dump Linux off of it and reinstall Windows 7 to it and take this on the road trip instead.

Battery Life etc is not necessary as for its plugged in all the time in hotel room when gaming etc.

While both of these systems are NOT really gaming spec systems, I cant afford to buy another laptop at this time after surprise $1600 dental bill without dental insurance for a gold crown that blew money I would have had to get a nice laptop and figured I'd check here to see if anyone knew of where to find Intel HD Graphics benchmarks? Or if I just need to load up a benchmark tool on both and compare that way?

The Celeron M1000 actually isnt all that bad of a CPU but its definitely not a Core i3 or better...LOL  I bought this Celeron M1000 based laptop initially to replace my Intel Atom 1.66Ghz netbook and not really intend it for games, but it might actually run games better than the 2009 Toshiba given its a 2015 ASUS model in which there have been improvements to FSB and core performance as well as APU design if this really is an APU.

Update: Looks like the Celeron M1000 beats the Athlon II M300 in benchmark as seen here with 48% better performance... also there is NO for GPU functionality in comparison listing for specs between CPUs, so the Celeron M1000 might be a CPU and not an APU even though Intels website shows info that suggests it might be an APU with GPU data. http://www.game-debate.com/cpu/index.php?pid=1201&pid2=725&compare=celeron-1000m-1-8ghz-vs-athlon-ii-m300-dual-core

Its too bad I cant bring my AMD FX-8350 4Ghz desktop system with me.   
I would say that the Celeron should be a little faster overall - the CPU itself is certainly faster, the graphics look like pretty much a wash.  The M1000 has the basic "Intel HD Graphics" from the Ivy Bridge line with 6 execution units, it's the slowest available from that lineup but the HD4200 is pretty old these days and was designed as a basic LOW cost GPU at the time.  It would be difficult to find GOOD comparisons between the two due to the age difference alone (REVIEWS change their benchmarks to keep up with changing hardware and SOFTWARE so it'd be hard to find a review using the same benchmark for two chips separated by a few years) but I would say they'd be fairly close, you may find the Intel is even a little faster.
As the CPU is definitely quicker than the AMD I would be inclined to pick the Intel system.Thanks for the suggestion. I actually found out today that the game has a port for Linux that I wasnt aware of and it runs pretty decent on the Intel system with Linux Mint 17.1 on 4GB RAM whereas the same game on the Athlon II with 3GB RAM and Windows 7 runs noticeably worse, so it looks like the Intel will be coming with me on the road trip. Additionally the Intel pumps out far less heat than the AMD even though both are 35 watt TDP systems.

Thanks for info on the benchmarks too... I though they just added all CPU's to a score matrix database and no matter what combination of comparison you'd end up with one vs another. But given the info is scarce from google you must be correct on this statement. Passmark I know has where you can look up individual CPU and GPU score data to compare, but the Intel HD Graphics was lacking for info. My one brother stated that he thinks its the 4000 or 5000 series Intel HD that the Celeron M1000 has on the die. But anyways I know which laptop will be going with me on the trip the newer low end processing power one.
