Solution
The GTX 760m is a good graphics chip for a laptop. It is a lot weaker than the desktop version of the GTX 760, but as you said, you do not have room for a desktop.

16GB of RAM does not provide better performance than 8GB of RAM. So if you can drop that down to 8GB you can save a little bit of money. Of course, if you need that 16GB of RAM for other things then that's different.
not bad. the 760m is a solid upper-mid range mobile card. You should be able to play anything on it with reduced settings. what games do you intend to play?
 



I was hoping i could play BF4, Dayz, rust, nether

well i still don't know if i'll buy BF4 but i have the other games
 
If you want to play games, I would use a desktop with a strong discrete graphics card.
It will cost you less, and you will game better.

If you need portability, then buy a laptop.
 


well, you see i don't have space for a desktop so a i have to chose a laptop
 


Another good reason for a laptop.



 



So is it good for playing or not?
And maybe if i'm lucky i'll be able to get a desktop but only if after buying it I'll still have money for a desk


btw sorry my English is bad.English is not my natural language

 
There is always something faster/better.
You mostly get what you pay for.

I might pay some attention to the display that is included. Is it of good quality? 1080p?
Will that suit you?

well i found laptop whit 8 gb of RAM but it's the same price most of them are (1300€)
 
If the price difference between 16GB and 8GB is like a drop of water in an ocean, then might was well go for it.

With that amount of RAM you can potentially run windows without the pagefile which I think windows automatically sets it to equal 100% or 50% of physical RAM; I forget. It can possibly make your laptop feel just slightly more responsive because with no pagefile there is no reading / writing to the hard drive to slow it down.

Of course if you are doing something that is going to use a lot of RAM, then it's best to have the pagefile. Such as if for some reason you like having 100 tabs open in Firefox, Chrome or Internet Explorer.
