So I have bought a Lenovo IdeaPad Z50-70 with a  Nvidia GT 840M / 4 GB RAM,

but the thing is i can not find a review for that specific version.

 

It may be due to it a costom made for the firm, but not sure

 

Hope someone can answer my questen

it will be similar to the GT840M with 2GB of VRAM

 

both the 2GB and 4GB will perform the same with all games tested

 

 

it a market tactic to make you think 4GB is faster

 

 

2GB is more than enough for 1080P gaming 

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.

It should perform the same to a normal 840M with 2 GBs of VRAM.

No big difference.

GT840 uses DDR3 VRAM

 

GT850/GT750 may use use both DDR3 and GDDR5

the 840M normally uses DDR3 as a standard but it can use GDDR3 as seen on the asus x550

actually it the same

 

it actually a misprint from newegg

 

the GT840M uses dedicated memory already at 2000MHz
