Hi,
I'm buying a new laptop for moderate gaming. I came across two laptop with same specs but Different GPU's. Help me to pick one of them.
Here are the Two GPU's:
nVIDIA GeFORCE 940m 2gb vs nVIDIA GeFORCE 920m 4gb.
940m is clearly better but new games want more vram so i'm thinking of 920m with 4 gig vram.
Which one should i buy? Please help me.

Performance depends on what you want to play and the resolution you are going to use. If you can find it, a 960 is about the baseline for mobile gaming performance for Nvidia's 900 series at the moment. I am currently using a Lenovo Y50 with an 860M - gaming at 1080p is decent but nothing to write home to mom about. It's my mobile workstation so it's mostly used for gaming only on extended work trips and for that purpose the 860M is doing it's job but if this was likely to be your primary gaming experience, splurge and get something with a little more power.

Then why is company(dell) giving 4GB VRAM. Is this just a gimmick for selling laptop.
