    how do i use 2 screens as seperate connected to a laptop with a splitter box

    GPU vs CPU (Laptop)

    Go with the 940M. In reality, you won;t see much of a performance increase between the i7 and the i5 in game. The GPU however will greatly affect performance. As far as bottlenecking, there isn't any in either one of the builds.
