To sum it up fast.

I have a laptop, i have been offerd a deal for it wich gives the same ammount of cash that another seller wants for his laptop, but i aint sure it is better so i was hoping that you guys could help me out a little here.

My current laptop is a Lenovo Y50-70
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M 2 GB
Intel Core i7 4th Gen 4700HQ (2.40 GHz)
16 gb ram
500GB SSD

In 3dmark it reaches around 3700 score in firestrike 1.1


Now, the other computer i was looking at is the
MSI GP60QF Leopard Pro
Graphics cards: GTX 950M
i7-4720HQ 2.60GHZ
8GB RAM
120GB SSD +1TB HDD
Keyboard by Steelseries

On paper it seems to have better setup, but when i look at the combination of the 950m + 4720HQ in 3dmark i see it only scores 2600 ??? 1000 lower..
Is that because the hardware ******** , or should i not trust the 3dmark score ??

UPDATE: this is link for the score i found

Thanks guys :)

Overall, the GTX 860m is slightly more powerful than the GTX 950m. The GTX 960m is the successor to the GTX 860m.

Having said that, I recommend you save up money until you can afford a laptop with at least a GTX 1050. If you are going to spend money on a new gaming laptop, you might as well just the expense with a significant enough performance increase otherwise you will very likely regret buying a new laptop. See link below which compares game benchmarks for the GTX 860m, 950m, 960m and 1050 from Notebookcheck.net.
