Short answer: for Windows 7 and “gaming + occasional GPU-accelerated work,” the ATI/AMD Robson-series discrete chip (sold as Radeon HD 6370M / 7370M — often labelled “Robson XT” in OEM specs) will generally give noticeably better gaming performance than a GeForce 315M. As pointed out, the right pick depends on OS and workload; given ’s Windows 7 + gaming intent, the Robson-based card is the stronger performer. (Radeon HD 6370M specs, GeForce 315M specs). (techpowerup.com)

Why: Robson mobile chips expose many more shader/stream processors and higher effective throughput than the 315M’s GT218-based design — e.g. Robson parts use ~80 stream processors at higher clocks versus the 315M’s roughly 16 unified pipelines — which translates into better texture/compute throughput and stronger DirectX support. These spec differences show up in real-world benchmarks. (techpowerup.com)

Real-world expectations: both GPUs are entry-level mobile parts. A Robson 1GB DDR3 card will run older titles and many eSports/indie games at low–medium settings, while the 315M will struggle more and is only good for very light gaming. Neither is suitable for modern AAA gaming at high settings; check NotebookCheck’s real-world classifications and game FPS for the exact SKU before buying. (NotebookCheck: Radeon HD 6370M, NotebookCheck: GeForce 315M). (notebookcheck.net)

Quick buying checklist: confirm the exact GPU model on the laptop spec sheet (HD 6370M vs HD 7370M vs 315M), make sure it’s a discrete dGPU (not just an integrated part), check the vendor’s Windows 7 driver support, and if gaming is important look for a system with a mid‑range discrete GPU or GDDR5 memory instead. If the seller will disclose the precise model, compare that exact SKU on TechPowerUp/NotebookCheck before deciding. (techpowerup.com)

The answer is ... it depends. It depends upon what operating system you run, what type of software you want to use with it, etc. Myself, I like nVidia, but principally that's because I mostly use Linux and there are better drivers for nVidia on Linux than for AMD cards. If you are just a "normal" user, then either will serve you well.
