how much are they

the first one is better, but not if you need a big hard disk

If you want to play games both will kind of suck but the 635 will be better. If you want to do processing (photo editing or big excel sheets) then both will kind of suck but the 630 will be better.

Neither are high end processors by any stretch, but if you're surfing the web, or word processing then either is fine.
Personally - all other things being equal - I'd go for the 635 as it's got the bigger HDD and 2GB more memory which can help with some things. That said, go for the cheaper one.

Hi it would just be internet etc only games i play are facebook games so i guess the635 would be ok for that.
is it easy to upgrade a proccessor???

no, which is why it's better to go for a better cpu, not that the average facebook game needs anything special
