I'm looking into the ASUS X550JK-DH71 laptop for school and for gaming. How could this laptop handle games like BF4 and Crysis 3, just to get an idea of of how it really performs?

Ok, looks good. I'ts not like I want it for very demanding games anyways. I really just want it for simple games like LOL, CS:GO, Day-z, and so on.
 
The 850m is a bit of a wild card because the manufacturer can outfit it with DDR3 or DDR5 VRAM. This particular model has DDR3, so it'll be on the slower end of the 850m benchmarks. The youtube video is of a DDR5 variant, so is slightly better than what you should expect from the laptop.

You can get more ideas of what the performance will be like here:

Check off the GPUs you're interested in in the left column, then click the Restrict button near the top to limit the page to just those GPUs.
 


You can play games with it just play with the settings and I'm guessing the max setting will be on mid'ish to high. Just turn of AA for some games and lower the resolution to 720p
