better for gaming

[hossam ali]

i have to choose between theses 2 laps:
1) lenovoz510 intel core i5 4200m 2.4/cash3
6gb ram(ddr3)
nividia Gt 740m 2gb dedicated
battery built in 6 cell.
2) dell inspiron 15r
intel core i7 4500u 1.8 up to 3.0/cash4
8gb ram (ddr3)
graphics:amd 8850m 2gb.

according to my budget i have only those 2 options ( or better than others in this class)
so..what's better for gaming and what's better gt740m or 8850m ? i really confused about that. and the difference in price is 140$. so does it worth ?

dont buy prebuilt just assemble ur own pc u will get more benefits at a less cost

It's a laptop, he can't build a laptop. I'd go for the top one, I think the 740 is better than the 8860, the 6gb should be okay but you can always add your own later

oops my mistake

it's 8850
i don't know i5 4200m with gt470m OR i74500u with amd 8850m

In processor the i5 4200m performs a little better but when you talk about gaming you mostly focus on a better graphics card so in my opinion the dell inspiron 15r would give better gaming performance and of course 8gb ddr3 ram is crucial so you can pick dell but SOME people say that dell uses low grade components and parts! i don't kno if it's true or false but it's not my money, your choice!

the 8850 performs somewhat better than the gt 740m according to this

and the i5 4200m performs somewhat better than i7 4500u according to this
http/cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i7-4500U-vs-Intel-Core-i5-4200M
but most probably gaming performance would'nt be affected with such minor difference in the processor!

so does it worth 140$ over for the dell ?

 

[gamingmaniac]

i don't know why it cost $140 more than the dell because the processor difference is you can say negligeble while the dell has more RAM as well as a better graphics card, in my case it certainly is not worth $140 over the dell inspiron 15r. my choice is dell!

Hossam,
Its best if you place threads in the appropriate section.

Moving thread to Laptops&Notebook section

sorry it's my mistake
the dell is over lenovo by 140$

dell ram is 8 and vga is better
but actually i don't know if that difference deserves 140$ plus or not ?
what's ur opinion ?

 

[gamingmaniac]

If ur using it mostly for gaming then 8gb ram is crucial and it has a better graphics card, i don't know.......... well ur probably using it for gaming then i'd say........... take it, take the dell! for normal use i'd chose lenovo instead of dell but the dell inspiron should give a much much better gaming performance, so my opinion take the dell
but then again it's not my money, your call!

I have one more option
Lenovo i7 2.6/cash6 g510
ram 8gb and graphic card will be gt 740m also (2gb ddr3)
this will be better than dell?

 

[gamingmaniac]

gt 740m is not a bad graphics card so... yep you can say it's good maybe even better than the dell!
