Objective of the computer:
- Play games such as World of Warcraft, DayZ, GMod, Minecraft, and so on (not too heavy, I suppose).
- Photoshop/Flash/After Effects projects (I have 8 gigs of RAM and currently After Effects alone wastes me 4 gigs of RAM alone)
- Game Development (using cry engine 3/unreal engine 4/autodesk, etc)

My personal comment: I have never used Lenovo, but I have tried an HP Pavilion and it broke right away when it fell on the floor for the first time (screen frame fell off etc!) from a really small distance (about 20/30cm). I'm looking for full performance. The Lenovo looks great but I'm not sure about the graphics card, because I know GTX is better than GT and GT is better than just GeForce, right?
I realize the third lenovo is the best in performance, but the price is kind of worrying, so I'm asking for an opinion on that too.
So, which one should I choose?
