On your 17" make sure it has the right resolution. Last time I looked (about 8 months ago), there were cheaper 17" with 1600x800 (or less) vs 1080 displays. My eyes suck but I can generally see a 1080 17". If you are only doing GIMP and no games the basic (non-amd/non-nvidia) chip should be good enough.
