Hi, everyone. I'm planning to downsize from pc to a laptop. Thinking about getting HP ENVY 17.3" (i7 5500U, 1Tb, 16Gb, gtx950m 4Gb ddr3). I'm gonna use it for HP UFT and LoadRunner, also ocasional gaming (Witcher 3). Can somebody tell me which one will be better? And what is better Gtx860m 2Gb ddr5 or gtx950m 4Gb but ddr3? Thank you I appreciate you help.
HP envy vs Lenovo Y50 or Gtx860m 2Gb ddr5 vs gtx950m 4Gb ddr3

DDR3 is slower than DDR5. If both types of RAM were used with the same GPU, I would say there would be around a 20% - 25% performance difference. The GTX 950m is only marginally better (at best) then athe GTX 850m which means the GTX 860m is more powerful.
4GB of RAM is a waste if it is limited to DDR3.

I agree with the above poster about ddr3. Perhaps if you're watching 4k movies with that 4gb, but not playing games.
