Laptop Comparison z50-70 vs z51

[Guest]

z51 model looks really nice with 5th Gen processor, backlit keyboard, jbl speakers, anti glare screen and 1TB hybrid drive, but an average graphic card AMD Radeon M375 r9 (4GB), but z5070 has Nvidia GeForce 840M 4GB..z51 is 7k costler compared to z5070...
So can you guys help me make the right buy ? Thanks.

BUMP, it's urgent. Advice is appreciated.

The m375 is better but if you are talking 7k rs then I don't think it's worth it.

Better,as in overall performance ? The prices has decreased and now both of them are at almost the same price, its just a matter of choice now...
So, why do you think its better than Nvidia ?

Also, does 4GB memory for the graphic card have much significance compared to 2GB ?

There aren't benchmarks of the m375 but if you look at similar spec gpus like a the 8870m, even it is better than a 840m. The vram amount won't make a difference. These gpus are too weak to be pushing that much. http/www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Radeon-R9-M375.142636.0.html

So, will it have a similar impact as GT 840m ?

The m375 is better.

I am just being curious, but on what basis are we comparing Graphic cards here ?
I checked the graphic card on Game-Debate : http/www.game-debate.com/hardware/index.php?gid=2971&graphics=Radeon%20R9%20M375%202GB And tried to check if I could run recent games with different Resolutions, I found out that GTA V could be run on higher resolutions like 1920x1048 but AMD could only run the game at low-medium settings on resolutions as 1280x1024, above that it could not be run. I have a friend who has z5070 with same graphic card, he said he could run Watch Dogs easily at high settings but when I checked it on the site, it said Watch Dogs couldnt be run on any resolution.
Also in this link : http/www.notebookcheck.net/Computer-Games-on-Laptop-Graphics-Cards.13849.0.html
I checked for low, mid,high,ultra settings for the games for graphics cards, 840M had low,med and high settings for Witcher 3 in decent fps but AMD had a very bad fps for all settings for the same game.

Why is this ? Am I going through a wrong approach ? And on what parameters do we exactly compare the cards ?

There are no benchmarks for either site. It's all conjecture.
