Laptop decission

[#ApeGoD]

Hey guys,

I've decided to buy a new laptop and i have seen 2 laptops that actually match the amount of money i'd like to spend.
Unfortunately im not sure which one is better.
I'd like the laptop to run BF at around medium settings and also other games that have come out recently (in the past 2 / 3 years).
Also, the laptop should be quite fast as im going to college and need a good laptop for software development. Additionally I watch alot of series but i guess any laptop can do for that purpose. So getting to the point my two choices are :
Lenovo G700 -> http://www.notebookcheck.net/Lenovo-G700-59377109.101691.0.html|
and
Lenovo G510 -> http://www.mediamarkt.pl/notebook-lenovo-ideapad-g510,id-930102 (down the bottom are the specs)

there both for the same prize but the G510 has 8gb Ram included aswell.
The main questions is whcih processor and gpu is better?
i7-4702MQ v i7-3612QM

GeForce 720M v R7 M265

Please help me as I need to make  up my mind soon.

According to various tests the 4702MQ is better.

and again according to the tests the R7 265 is better.

 

 

So i hope this helps

Yes the newer 4th gen named the haswell generation are always better, faster and more efficient. Along with the 720m its made to coexist and work better with each other.

I made a little mistake, the r7 m265 and i7 4702MQ are in one laptop

[Jobba]

 That is even better. The M7 with the i7 4702MQ is good enough for Battlefield 4.

 

Based on Game debates system requirements

You should get up to medium settings with the M7 as it has 2GBS of on board video memory compared to the Geforces 1gb. Your i7 processor is even good enough to handle the High settings of battlefield 4. The M7 cannot handle up to high, just medium. So it should be good enough for medium playing on a 1280x1080 resolution MAX. Anything higher and you would most likely lag.

 

Lenovo's aren't generally made for gaming. If your willing to spend extra cash, you could get a gaming desktop for cheaper maybe even better, or even build one yourself.

You see I need it for college aswell so cant get a desktop maybe in the future. For the prize i think its a fair deal so if it handles bf4 etc. thank you so much

Keep in mind, most benchmarks on the internet are tested in the Single Player of Battlefield 4.

 

Multi Player experiences are more CPU/GPU related.
