2 tera bytes


2-lenovo z51-70
I5 5200u (2.2ghz , 3M)
8gb ram
1tera
Ati r9 m375 4gb


Am on hurry please ... Which is better overall ... Thank you
 
GPU - The Radeon R9 375 is better than the GTX 920M. Processor wise - The Intel Core i7-6500U's clock speed is measured to be 9% faster than the Intel Core i5-6200U. In terms of cache/smart cache size, the Intel Core i7-6500U has 33% more than the Intel Core i5-6200U does, which means it can access more frequently used data.
 


 
Between the first 2 choices, I would say the second one with the amd gpu. The gt 940m is better than the amd r9 though
 
Solution

So i5 6200u
940mx 4gb
6gb ram
Is better than the first two ?
 


As velo3100 said yes the GTX 940m is better than the R9 375.
 

Okay 6gb ram and 8gb ram will make a huge difference or it will be okay with gaming ? Thank you in advance
