Will the new Macbook Air have an Intel HD 5300 graphics? It seems to have a worse fps performance than the current HD 5000? I occasionally play a game (Company of Heroes 1 with Bootcamp) on my latest Macbook Air 11 inch with a connected monitor when I am not home and this runs good.

I doubt Apple will go with Core M for any laptop--that's a downlevel processor that's intended for cheap fanless tablets. Apple is not known to use Intel's cheap, low-performance chips.

On the other hand, there are plenty of people who think the next MBA will be fanless and thus must have a Core M.
