Or are these both garbage? This is my price range and I do want to do some low-med gaming with games like minecraft, skyrim, d3, sc2, ESO.

The G510 is better, HD4600 is like taking over the HD8650G that the AMD APU got (notebookcheck > CoD Ghost and BF4 on low is about 10fps more with HD4600)

Also the i5 alone is somewhat better than the A10 APU.

the 8650 performs faster have no idea where your getting your info from the 8650m is very close to 7670m it deoends on the memory being used though , the pixel rate is 4x faster and texture rate is 8x faster then HD 4000's Also i5's for laptops are dual cores so its not really better then AMD quad. Believe it or not the 8650g with dual channel memory can handle Crysis 3 at 1366x768 with a mix of medium and high and couple low settings around 30 fps.

Left side is HD4600, the right side belongs to the HD8350G

Their tests have to based from single channeled memory. because their way off on those tests "The performance of the 8650G is about 20 percent above the HD 7660G. Thus, the Radeon HD 8650G performs similar to a dedicated HD 7670M or NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M. Without fast dual-channel memory, however, performance drops dramatically."

Also

8650g

12.8 GTexel/s

4.3 GPixel/s

HD 4600

1.6 GTexel/s

0.8 GPixel/s

And BF4 runs 25-30fps with a mix medium and high settings on s 8650g
