Buying Asus B53S

Hello folks,

 

I need some advice regarding buying the B53S notebook, I actually wanted to get the B53J because of the docking station (for home use) and the switchable graphic because he battery life is important to me because i'm gonna be using it outdoors mostly .

 

The problem is the i'm from Egypt and the only available one here (and in online shops that ships to Egypt) is the B53S and B53F

 

I will be using it for software programming, but i will game and watch/edit movies from time to time that's why i don't want to get the B53F with the integrated Intel GPU.

 

Now it seems like my only options is the B53S, so the question is how big will be the effect of the Radeon HD 6470M on the battery compared to the integrated one?

 

EDIT: I would be grateful if someone could direct me to an online shop that have B53J available and ships overseas.

 

Thank you.

The 6470 is a lower-mid power graphics card. It's not likely to have that much effect on the battery life.
