Here's my predicament: I'm planning to get a laptop that works for both University and some gaming

I've found two HP laptops, both are of high quality with only minor differences.

I need to know which graphics card is better:

AMD Radeon HD 7690M

Or

NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M

I'm really only planning on playing games like minecraft, or maybe even some Arma II.

If you take a look at this ranking then you'll see that the 630M scored 6% less than the Radeon, although that one only got 36% itself.

There's also this post in a thread looking like an informed opinion on pretty much the same problem as yours. So I'd go with the AMD choice in your place.

The 7690M is better, almost 30% faster than the GT 630M, the 7690m is a fast mid-range graphics card from amd, whilst the GT 630M is a slow mid-range card from nVidia.
